There are already some signals about which government expenses could be on the chopping block for Elon Musk's DOGE.

Taking their cue from Musk and the Trump administration, Missouri lawmakers also have decided to root out fraud, abuse and waste. To that end, the House and Senate government efficiency committees met jointly Monday to brainstorm ways to cut, modernize and streamline Missouri’s government.

A former USDS employee called the repurposing of the Digital Service into DOGE an “A+ bureaucratic jiujitsu move.” It will give Musk and his associates access to unclassified data in every government agency.
