Executive Office of the President

subagencies: DOGE, OMB

One of the challenging thing about tracking reporting about DOGE is that DOGE itself is purposefully vague by design. When it’s time for them to threaten an agency or demand control over their systems, then it’s a firmly defined entity backed by the authority of Elon Musk and also the President. When it’s time to handle pesky reporters or legal discovery demands, it’s just a vague concept located somewhere within the Executive Office of the President (EOP). DOGE itself is also hard to define, since it can be used interchangably to mean: - The DOGE Temporary Organization/USDS entity within the White House - Staff that have been detailed to other agencies from DOGE specifically - Staff that are detailed from other agencies besides DOGE (see The Wreckers for what this means) who are taking direction from DOGE leadership - Staff hired at other agencies who are following DOGE’s aims. DOGE has attempted to use this ambiguity in legal cases (for instance, not reporting the activities Gavin Kliger and Jeremy Lewin on behalf of DOGE at the CFPB, because technically they worked for the GSA), and media can sometimes be very imprecise as well. So, when an article reports a new person at an agency is from DOGE, does that mean they report to the White House or were detailed from there? It can be hard to figure out. As a result, this page has a large amount of ambiguity within. Not only does it include people working for DOGE who might not be. It is also a muddled mix of various White House-affiliated staff, including people assigned directly to DOGE and people who work elsewhere in the White House.

A senior policy strategist at the White House relays a “Stephen request” (meaning Stephen Miller) that “POTUS wants to see more action against universities.” Included in the initial coordination is GSA Federal Acquisition Service (FAS) Commissioner Josh Gruenbaum. He becomes involved with figuring out grants from multiple agencies to cut for both University of Pennsylvania and San Jose State University, because they had allowed trans athletes to participate in sports. This is very much not his area of responsibility at the GSA, but he is on the Task Force to Combat Antisemitism which stripped funding from Columbia Univesity.

DOGE gives a presentation of a “DOGE AI Deregulation Decision Tool” that will use AI to target roughly 50% of federal regulations for elimination, on the argument that they aren’t meeting statutory requirements. The goal is to slash these regulations by January 20, 2026. In their presentation, DOGE claims the tool has already made determinations on 1083 decisions at HUD (using Christopher Sweet’s work) and has also been used for 100% of deregulatory actions at the CFPB. It also states that DOGE lawyers James Burnham, Austin Raynor, Jacob Altik and Ashley Boizelle have vetted and endorsed the tool.

In an analysis of DOGE’s continued exaggeration about its savings, Politico notes that updates to the site’s Wall of Receipts have become more infrequent. There were barely any updates in June, followed by a four-week gap in July and another 17 days for a few items in August. This suggests that the cost-cutting mission (or at least, bragging about it) has slowed or faltered within DOGE.
