Every day brings revelations about how corrupt the US government is. Every day the Department of Government Efficiency ( DOGE) reports on one agency or another that they have taken over and plan to eliminate or downsize. The first targets were the USAID and the US Department of Education.
But this is just the beginning.
Every day is a spectacle, with Elon Musk and a handful of young men taking control over federal agencies. Some call it a coup, though President Trump has granted them the power through executive privilege. Others may call it a mission from God.
There is no telling how far this DOGE takeover will continue, but as long as folks are not protesting, we can expect it to last indefinitely. President Trump has recently mentioned corruption in the Department of Defense, which would be an interesting target to investigate.
In the meantime, President Trump has relaxed enforcement of US law banning bribery of foreign officials.
