Department of Government Efficiency:
The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is an initiative by the second Trump administration to modernize information technology and to maximize productivity of the federal government. It emerged from discussions between Donald Trump and Elon Musk in 2024, and was officially established by an executive order on January 20, 2025. DOGE members have filled influential roles at federal agencies that granted them enough control of information systems to terminate contracts from agencies targeted by Trump's executive orders, with small businesses bearing the brunt of the cuts. DOGE has facilitated mass layoffs and the dismantling of organizations. It has also assisted with immigration crackdowns and copied sensitive data from government databases.
