DOGE was created for data theft and infrastructure dismantling and it wildly succeeded on both counts within the first few weeks of its existence. It will take a generation to rebuild what it destroyed and the breach of data is unprecedented.
Bye bye, “DOGE”.
It no longer exists as a “centralized entity”, according to the Office of Personnel Management.

Trump strutted misogyny onstage and too many in that press room let him. A wannabe fascist king performing for a real one while women doing their jobs were thrown to the wolves.
