REVEALED: DOGE's Final Goal as It Launches Government Blitzkrieg


Elon Musk's end goal has actually been exposed as he continues to lose weight federal government through callous redundancies and the slashing of whole departments.

The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), run by the billionaire SpaceX creator, has actually laid off countless federal employees throughout its first weeks out there.

The bloodbath has actually so far targeted DEI works with, in line with Trump's anti-woke program, and apparently 'lazy' federal workers who are soon to be changed by artificial intelligence.

Musk's main aim seems decreasing the government machine to make it much easier for President Donald Trump to control, according to the Washington Post.

It comes after Trump, 78, declined to rule out acting as a 'totalitarian' the month before he was sworn in as the 47th President of the United States.

Longtime Musk ally and investor Shervin Pishevar informed the Post that Trump and the X tsar have been serving as 2 complimentary 'storms' tearing through federal government.

' Chaos is frequently the birth place of brand-new orders, brand-new systems and new paradigms,' Pishevar said of the significant overhaul presently being performed by DOGE.

' Washington does not know how to handle individuals who refuse to play the video game by their rules.

' Donald Trump and Elon Musk are 2 different storms backed by a majority of Americans - one political, one technological.

' But both are tearing through the very same rotting structure.'

The lessened federal government will likewise provide less oversight over private organization and make up a smaller sized share of the US economy.

The DOGE group recently revealed plans to release a brand-new and untried tool to assist his goal of slashing costs and akropolistravel.com 'lazy' federal employees - the deployment of expert system to upgrade federal government systems.

Josh Gruenbaum - head of the Federal Acquisition Service at the General Services Administration (GSA) - exposed that they are thinking about making use of AI 'in our portfolios.'

That consists of methods to cut down on staff around the country, he said.

We'll be 'cutting redundant service functions and associated staffing,' Gruenbaum said, pointing to the capacity of AI taking over already-established tasks.

Trump's DOGE is also providing cushy 'buyout' deals to federal staff members in the hopes of cutting back in between five and 10 percent of the labor force.

A White House authorities confirmed to DailyMail.com on Thursday that more than 40,000 federal employees had accepted the offer as of February 6.

Musk's aim appears to be decreasing the federal government maker to make it much easier for President Donald Trump to manage, according to the Washington Post

Thomas Shedd, a previous Tesla engineer who's now also at the GSA, apparently held a conference Monday to detail strategies to implement AI into the government.

' I'm not saying that this is an easy job, but it is a job that's worth attempting to pursue and one that just we can do as an internal group, right?,' he said.

' We can't bring a 3rd party in, employ them and have them work on a project like this. It has to be an internal technology team that works on this,' Shedd said, according to 404 media, who obtained audio of the meeting.

Musk has actually also assaulted the US Agency for International Development (USAID) - the government agency charged with humanitarian relief overseas - calling it a 'criminal organization' after Donald Trump claimed it was 'run by extreme lunatics.'

' USAID is a criminal organization,' Musk wrote on his X platform last week - without offering any proof, before adding: 'Time for it to pass away'.

In another X post, Musk doubled down and asked his 215 million X fans: 'Did you understand that USAID, utilizing YOUR tax dollars, moneyed bioweapon research study, consisting of Covid-19, that eliminated countless individuals?'

He did not elaborate on the claims, that included a discredited report that officials in the previous administration linked to a Russian disinformation campaign.

Trump likewise connected the agency on Sunday, claiming it has 'been run by a bunch of radical lunatics, and we're getting them out ... and after that we'll make a decision (on its future).'

The criticism from Musk follows more than a week of trouble inside USAID, Washington's main agency financing life-saving aid internationally.

According to The Washington Post, USAID handled over $40 billion of appropriations, less than 1 percent of the federal budget, in financial year 2023 - provided to about 130 nations.

A senior authorities from a US-based company feared that the prioritization of 'em ergency' support belonged to a more comprehensive strategy in which Washington would stop funds for anything else.

Former Deputy National Security Advisor Ben Rhodes said the taking apart of USAID 'will cost untold lives worldwide, devastate America's standing, and massively empower China and other nations.'

He included: 'There's no excusing it - it's a shameful, dumb, self-own without reason and a harbinger of even worse to come.'

There have actually been reports Trump wishes to roll USAID into the State Department.

How do you feel about Musk's function in the government?

Comment now DOGE was founded as part of the so-called 'executive office of the president,' as a short-term 18-month company under the repurposed United States Digital Service.

It does not take pleasure in full status as a federal government department, which would require the approval of Congress, and Musk is neither federal worker nor a federal government official. It is uncertain to whom DOGE is accountable.

PBS also reported that DOGE personnel tried to gain access to 'protect spaces.'

There was no record of what details DOGE officials were able to obtain in those areas, however the offices they accessed consisted of classified files and individual details about Americans who operate at USAID, the sources said.

Katie Miller, classifieds.ocala-news.com a DOGE representative, said on social media platform X that no classified material was accessed without appropriate security clearances.

Matt Hopson, who had actually simply been selected as USAID chief of staff by the Trump administration, has resigned, 5 sources acquainted with the matter said. A congressional source said his resignation followed the event with DOGE officials.

Steven Cheung, a senior aide to Trump, posted on X that the PBS report was 'legitimately FAKE NEWS. Not even from another location real at all. This is how unserious and unreliable the media is. '

Meanwhile, USAID's account on X has actually been handicapped and the USAID website has been down considering that Saturday afternoon, a sign that the end is near for the company.

Its financing goes to programs on everything from females's health in dispute zones to access to clean water, HIV/AIDS treatments, energy security and anti-corruption work.

Field healthcare facilities in Thai refugee camps, landmine clearance in war zones, and drugs to treat millions suffering from illness such as HIV are among the programs at risk of elimination.

U.S. House Foreign Affairs Committee Chair Brian Mast, a Republican, said on Sunday that he would support moving USAID under the State Department which there needs to be 'more command and control.'

Asked on CBS' 'Face the Nation' if congressional approval was required or whether Trump might act unilaterally, Mast did not respond to.

The 'purging of people throughout the State Department, other firms' and freezing aid were 'all very crucial and required steps to make certain that we secure America,' he said.

It comes a day after DOGE performed a similar operation at the Treasury Department gaining access to delicate details including the Social Security and Medicare consumer payment systems.

The system is run by non-political profession civil servants and controls trillions of dollars of government funds that go to programs like Social Security and Medicare. Any interruption in its operation would spark extensive economic failure.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent provided Musk's DOGE the thumbs-up to have full access to the payments system late on Friday.
