The Spin

DOGE was a reckless experiment that gutted federal agencies, endangered public safety and delivered a fraction of its promised savings. Slashing staff at NOAA, FEMA and the FAA made disasters deadlier and air travel more chaotic, while exposing Social Security data to potential foreign exploitation. Blowing up institutional knowledge for $215 billion in savings — against a $7 trillion annual budget — isn't efficiency, it's negligence.

Thirdway Politico

DOGE was always meant to shut down — the July 4, 2026, termination date was baked into Trump's original executive order, so calling it a failure misses the point entirely. Cutting $214 billion in wasteful contracts and grants in under a year is a genuine win for taxpayers drowning in $38.5 trillion of national debt. The efficiency principles DOGE established are now embedded across every federal department, exactly as intended.
