Elon Musk and the National Company's Career Leadership
Elon Musk formally established the National Company's career leadership. Soon after, Tesla's industrial leadership and general managers found themselves without professional career leadership. His motivational supply reduction had a significant impact on professional leadership.
Criticism of Doge
Doge faced significant criticism for allegedly "robbing" the entire office and selling hundreds of millions of dollars in contracts. It was also criticized for its lack of transparency and unreliable earnings reports riddled with errors. The White House even launched a thousand-person national staff. One staff member described the period as the "worst day" of their national career.
Musk's Involvement and Doge's Revenue
So, what did Musk and Doge actually do? What are the consequences of Musk no longer being involved with this company? During the election, Musk suggested that Doge could retain at least $200 million. By March, Musk reduced this target, aiming for a reduction of $100 million. Initial data appeared unclear. Romina Boccia researched international areas, domains, and fees at Libeda Cato's Christological Studies.
In late May, Dosch estimated a smaller earnings figure of $17.5 billion. In February, The Daily Report analyzed $7 billion in non-sale contracts posted on Doge's website and found actual revenue reached $260 million. The problem was that many errors existed, making it difficult to know the actual revenue of the national government.
Discrepancies in Data
Doge's contract and asset balances increased by approximately $7.2 billion. However, this still left $10 billion unaccounted for in other areas. Data showed reduced staffing. A Doge spokesperson did not respond to emailed questions.
Legal Battles and Staffing Changes
Several large-scale international government dismissals were controlled by the courts. His forced methods led to subsequent pressure between President Trump and Musk. Many lawsuits have been filed to protect federal workers from arrest. Doge's attempts to access certain federal government data labs also faced scrutiny.
-
Several federal company staff were detained.
-
Jeffrey Grant, who oversaw 600 staff members working on Healthcare.gov (the Affordable Care Act website), had 86 staff members told to retire in mid-February.
-
These layoffs included IT personnel, health policy experts, industry experts, and information specialists.
Grant stated that 30 employees were brought back, deemed either actually necessary or because they had been "tricked" into leaving.
Education Department and Emails
On November 1st, approximately half of the Education Department staff underwent mandatory preparation, as targeted by President Trump's goals to resist the department. Sharia Smith, who had been with the Education Department since 2016, also served as a legal minister. Staff and she received emails stating they were facing strong resistance. It was argued that if they didn't comply, America would be "robbed."
Continued Legal Struggles and Trump's Policies
Although Musk has stepped back from Doge, serious legal battles continue. Under President Trump's policies, he wants to continue the "Doge" initiative in Washington. A key figure in President Trump's administration is President Russ Vogt.
Rusvote's Influence
Now that Musk has left, there is an expectation that voting will have a more significant impact, ensuring that Doge's cuts become enshrined in law. Rusvote's goal has been to significantly strengthen the national government and is a major force after the German Empire. As OMB president, Rusvote provided Republicans with a $163 billion election plan, representing 22.6% of the Republican election allocation.
The $163 billion which they identified is very similar to the roughly $170 billion that Doge has identified. However, they also want to increase defense spending while avoiding touching Medicare or Social Security. Ultimately, reducing spending is a prerogative of Congress.
Democratic President and Future Impacts
In May, a Democratic president passed a thousand-page plan called the "Big Beautiful Plan." Musk said the plan hinders Doge's work and doesn't address enough of the issues. He expressed unhappiness that the plan increased costs and hindered the Doge team's work instead of reducing them. The President still needs to pass strategies, but Americans expressed a desire in April to have these strategies on the president's desk.
Doge's Lasting Influence
The impact of Doge's cuts continues to be felt nationwide. Doge has now become part of every national company, instilling a budget-cutting mindset. They are effectively the reason for reduced public services and potential issues with Social Security. This will all influence the public's future view of DOGE.
