The Department of Government Efficiency, a post-election promise brought to life by President Trump via executive order looks different than its original proposal to broadly cut federal spending.

The rebranding of a former White House digital office into the new Department of Government Efficiency signals its potential limits, budget experts said.

Some employees who were in the U.S. Digital Service already when it became part of the DOGE fear the interviews are an assessment of their loyalty.

Billionaire Elon Musk has secured a White House email and office space to lead the Department of Government Efficiency. President Trump signed an order renaming the US Digital Service as the US DOGE Service.

The Office of Personnel Management tells agency and department heads they must close all DEIA offices by the end of Wednesday and put government workers in those offices on paid leave.

The United States Digital Service is hereby publicly renamed as the United States DOGE Service (USDS) and shall be established in the Executive Office of the President.
