 The Department of Government Efficiency, better known as DOGE, was supposed to be the sledgehammer swinging at federal waste. Elon Musk led this initiative with promises to cut two trillion dollars in spending and reshape the entire bureaucracy. But there's a twist in this story that most listeners may have missed.

According to recent reporting, DOGE has quietly ceased to exist well ahead of schedule. Despite having eight months remaining on its charter, the department that once grabbed headlines for slashing foreign aid and attacking federal payrolls has essentially vanished. When asked about DOGE's status, the Office of Personnel Management Director Scott Kupor simply told reporters that DOGE no longer exists as a centralized entity.

What happened to all those officials? They've scattered across the federal government. Some landed at the State Department, others at the White House budget office, the Department of Health and Human Services, and various other agencies. Even Airbnb cofounder Joe Gebbia transitioned from DOGE to a new National Design Studio focused on improving government websites.

Musk himself has had quite the journey. After a very public feud with President Trump in June over tax and spending policies, the Tesla CEO appeared to be sidelined. But he's recently re-entered Trump's orbit, attending a White House dinner and appearing at various high-profile events.

The numbers tell an interesting story too. DOGE claims to have saved 214 billion dollars, but independent analysis suggests those figures are greatly exaggerated. The Partnership for Public Service, a nonpartisan nonprofit focused on the federal workforce, found that DOGE's cuts actually incurred related costs that resulted in minimal net savings. They also didn't account for legal expenses from lawsuits challenging the cuts or lost tax revenue from IRS staff reductions.

Meanwhile, the Office of Personnel Management reports that the government hired roughly 68,000 people this year while 317,000 employees left, exceeding Trump's goal for workforce reduction.

So what's the legacy of DOGE? Its principles remain embedded throughout federal agencies, even if the centralized department has dissolved. The efficiency movement continues, just in a more distributed, less visible form.
