Trump administration to expedite removal of federal employees for misconduct
06/05/2025 // Laura Harris // 30 Views

- New OPM rules streamline the removal of federal employees engaged in misconduct (e.g., tax evasion, leaks) by expanding agencies' authority to reassess suitability post-hiring, closing loopholes that protect problematic workers.
- The proposal targets civil service safeguards that make firing inefficient or unethical employees difficult, emphasizing that public service is a "privilege, not a right."
- Trump's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) aims to slash bureaucracy, regulations and spending by 2026, calling it central to his "Save America" agenda.
- Executive orders eliminate redundant agencies (e.g., Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service) and enforce a "10-to-1" deregulation policy, requiring new rules to justify economic benefits.
- Citizens are encouraged to report government waste, while agencies must cut non-essential functions (e.g., leadership training programs) to prioritize efficiency and taxpayer savings.
The Trump administration has unveiled a major regulatory overhaul aimed at speeding up the removal of federal employees for misconduct to streamline government operations and hold civil servants accountable.
The proposed rule, announced by the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) on June 2, seeks to amend federal personnel vetting and disciplinary procedures, targeting workers whose behavior undermines public trust.
Under the new rule, agencies would gain expanded authority to flag employees for "suitability action" if they engage in misconduct, including tax evasion, unauthorized leaks of sensitive information or other conduct "inconsistent with the public trust." The measure aims to close a loophole that has long frustrated officials: While federal job applicants undergo rigorous background checks, existing employees often retain their positions despite disqualifying behavior due to bureaucratic protections.
Currently, most federal employees enjoy civil service protections, meaning they can only be fired for specific causes, such as misconduct or poor performance, and must be granted due process, including appeals and union representation. These safeguards have made it nearly impossible to dismiss problematic workers, even when their actions compromise government efficiency or integrity.
(Related: Trump administration targets 200,000 probationary federal workers in sweeping workforce cuts.)
"For too long, agencies have faced red tape when trying to remove employees who break the public's trust," OPM Acting Director Chuck Ezell said. "This proposed rule ensures misconduct is met with consequence and reinforces that public service is a privilege, not a right."
The new rule, which is now open for public comment, would not convert federal employment to an at-will system but would provide agencies with a streamlined process to reassess an employee's suitability for their role if misconduct is discovered after hiring.
Trump aims to slash federal bureaucracy, regulations and spending
The policy change aligns with President Donald Trump's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) Workforce Optimization Initiative and reinforces his recent executive orders cracking down on poor performance and misbehavior in the federal workforce.
In November, shortly after winning the presidential election, Trump launched DOGE to slash federal bureaucracy, regulations and spending. Trump framed the initiative as central to his "Save America" agenda, declaring it the "Manhattan Project of our time" to overhaul federal inefficiency by the 250th anniversary of U.S. independence in 2026.
In line with this, Trump signed an executive order in March, titled "Eliminating Waste and Reducing Government Overreach," which eliminates or reduces the functions of multiple federal agencies while calling on citizens to help identify further inefficiencies. The order targets several agencies for downsizing, including the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service, the U.S. Agency for Global Media and the Minority Business Development Agency, to streamline government operations, including his signature "two-for-one" deregulation policy and the creation of DOGE.
The White House emphasized that this executive order focuses on eliminating non-essential functions while maintaining legally required services. Agencies like the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars and the Institute of Museum and Library Services will see their roles significantly reduced.
The administration also highlighted its "10-to-1" deregulation initiative, ensuring that any new rule must be justified by clear economic or public benefits while removing outdated regulations.

Supreme Court allows DOGE team to access Social Security systems with data on millions of Americans
https://apnews.com/article/doge-soci...6a6e612bf8e9ba
Summary:
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court handed the Trump administration two victories Friday in cases involving the Department of Government Efficiency, including giving it access to Social Security systems containing personal data on millions of Americans.
The justices also separately reined in orders seeking transparency at DOGE, the team once led by billionaire Elon Musk.
The court’s conservative majority sided with the Trump administration in the first Supreme Court appeals involving DOGE. The three liberal justices dissented in both cases.

Still crawling along.
The newest figures are:
6/4 $180 billion tax dollars saved
Number of business days are 80 as follows:
Feb - 14 days
Mar - 21 days
Apr - 22 days
To May 14th - 9 days
To June 4 - 14 days
Total = 80 business days to achieve $180 billion in tax dollars saved.
This equals $2.25 billion per day which is minuscule considering the disclosed US Debt stands at nearly $37 trillion today, June 6, 2025.Last edited by GaiaGoddess; 06-06-2025 at 05:44 PM.

Supreme Court grants DOGE access to Social Security data, exempts it from FOIA disclosures

- In a 6-3 decision on June 6, the U.S. Supreme Court granted DOGE access to sensitive Social Security Administration data and exempted it from Freedom of Information Act disclosures during ongoing litigation.
- The decision lifts a prior injunction by Judge Ellen Hollander, who had warned DOGE's data access posed serious privacy risks and lacked credible justification.
- In a separate 6-3 ruling, the Court also held that DOGE is not required to release internal documents or communications sought by plaintiffs, including the AFL-CIO and the American Federation of Teachers.
- The Trump administration cited three main fraud-detection initiatives to justify the data access: the "Are You Alive?" project, the Death Data Clean Up Project and the Fraud Detection Project.
- DOGE Commissioner Frank Bisignano hailed the ruling as a "major victory for American taxpayers," while the decision has sparked ongoing debate about surveillance, privacy and executive power.
The U.S. Supreme Court has granted the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) access to sensitive Social Security Administration (SSA) data while shielding it from public records requests under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA).
In a 6-3 ruling on June 6, filed under docket 24A1063, the Supreme Court lifted an earlier injunction issued by U.S. District Judge Ellen Hollander that barred DOGE from obtaining personally identifiable information, including financial and medical records, stored by the SSA. Hollander had warned in her April decision that the efforts of DOGE posed a serious threat to privacy and lacked a credible basis. (Related: Elon Musk's DOGE uncovers $4.7 Trillion in untraceable federal spending, followed by massive social security fraud.)
"The DOGE Team is essentially engaged in a fishing expedition at SSA, in search of a fraud epidemic, based on little more than suspicion," Hollander wrote in her April opinion. "It has launched a search for the proverbial needle in the haystack, without any concrete knowledge that the needle is actually in the haystack."
The high court also ruled in a separate but related six-to-three decision that DOGE is not obligated to release internal documents or communications to plaintiffs in an ongoing FOIA lawsuit. The lawsuit, led by progressive organizations including the AFL-CIO and the American Federation of Teachers, sought insight into DOGE's targeting criteria and coordination with other agencies.
"We conclude that, under the present circumstances, SSA may proceed to afford members of the SSA DOGE Team access to the agency records in question in order for those members to do their work," the Supreme Court said in its unsigned decision.
The ruling enables DOGE to resume its data operations immediately, even as legal challenges continue in lower courts.
DOGE commissioner celebrates Supreme Court ruling as a "major victory for American taxpayers"
DOGE has become a lightning rod in debates over federal oversight and civil liberties. Formed as part of a broader initiative to reduce the size of the federal workforce and root out inefficiencies, DOGE has aggressively pursued data-driven investigations into fraud, waste and abuse, particularly within entitlement programs.
It was first put on hold with a temporary restraining order in March, but the Trump administration cited three key initiatives to justify granting the DOGE access to Social Security Administration systems.
The first, known as the "Are You Alive?" project, focuses on identifying payments that may be mistakenly sent to deceased individuals. The second, the Death Data Clean Up Project, aims to update and verify records of individuals the government believes to be deceased. The third initiative, the Fraud Detention Project, investigates possible fraud related to changes in personal records, including wage reporting and direct deposit information.
DOGE Commissioner Frank Bisignano lauded the Supreme Court ruling.
"The Supreme Court's ruling is a major victory for American taxpayers. The Social Security Administration will continue driving forward modernization efforts, streamlining government systems, and ensuring improved service and outcomes for our beneficiaries," he said.

DOGE cuts 610,000 unused federal credit cards
06/15/2025 // Laura Harris // 760 Views
Tags: anti-fraud, big government, canceled, credit cards, DOGE, Donald Trump, elon musk watch, federal contracts, freedom, government efficiency, Liberty, Musk, progress, White House

- DOGE has canceled over 610,000 unused or unnecessary federal credit cards in 14 weeks to reduce waste and tighten financial oversight.
- Starting with 200,000 deactivations in March across 16 agencies, the audit has since expanded to 55 agencies, uncovering widespread misuse of government cards for luxury and personal expenses.
- DOGE's audit exposed serious gaps in federal credit card oversight, with $39.7 billion in annual spending flowing through the system with minimal accountability.
- GSA's SmartPay data showed 90 million transactions with an average of $441 each and $506 million in agency refunds, raising concerns over spending justification.
- Despite federal requirements, spending data is not being reported to the Federal Procurement Data System, limiting public transparency and prompting watchdog warnings about systemic abuse.
The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has eliminated over 610,000 unused or unnecessary federal credit cards as part of its ongoing campaign to streamline federal operations and reduce wasteful spending.
DOGE, which launched its federal audits in March, began with 200,000 card deactivation across 16 agencies and has since expanded to 32, targeting misuse of taxpayer funds for unauthorized personal expenses such as luxury dining, designer goods, electronics and cosmetic services. Since then, DOGE has suspended about 523,000 federal credit cards to eliminate wasteful spending and curb fraud. (Related: DOGE cancels 500,000 federal credit cards in crackdown on wasteful spending.)
"The program to audit unused/unneeded credit cards has been expanded to 32 agencies. After 10 weeks, more than 500K cards have been deactivated," DOGE posted on X, formerly known as Twitter, in May. "As a reminder, at the start of the audit, there were – 4.6M active cards/accounts, so still more work to do."
The suspended cards were part of the General Services Administration (GSA) SmartPay system, which handles billions in government transactions annually. While the cards were intended for official use, DOGE investigators uncovered widespread abuse, revealing that many employees and contractors had used them for personal indulgences instead.
Now, as part of its ongoing efforts to reduce the number of government-issued credit cards, DOGE has reported that it has already canceled over 610,000 unused and unnecessary federal credit cards over a 14-week period.
"Credit Card Update! After 14 weeks, the program to audit unused/unneeded credit cards has expanded to 55 agencies, resulting in 610k deactivated cards. As a reminder, at the start of the audit, there were 4.6M active cards/accounts; more work to do!" DOGE posted on X on June 6.
DOGE exposes weaknesses in oversight of government-issued credit cards
This audit has exposed major weaknesses in oversight of government-issued credit cards, with nearly $40 billion in annual spending previously flowing through the system with minimal scrutiny.
According to recently released data from the GSA SmartPay program, federal credit cards were used for 90 million transactions totaling $39.7 billion in the last fiscal year – an all-time high, even as thousands of cards sat idle. The average transaction was $441, and agencies received $506 million in refunds – figures that have raised fresh questions about whether many of the purchases were justified or necessary.
Despite federal requirements under Federal Acquisition Regulation 4.606(a)(2) that purchase card data be reported to the Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS), that information has not been submitted. Instead, spending details are only accessible via the GSA SmartPay website, a lack of transparency that critics say hinders public accountability. A GSA spokesperson said an updated Purchase Card Statistics Report will eventually be published to FPDS, but offered no timeline.
For years, watchdog organizations have warned that the lack of oversight created fertile ground for misuse, with few consequences for those who violated spending rules. Fortunately, DOGE's intervention is forcing agencies to account for every transaction and reevaluate internal controls.

ATF on the chopping block: Trump’s DOGE team moves to gut gun regulations, restore Second Amendment rights
07/02/2025 // Lance D Johnson // 440 Views

As the Democrat's war on gun owners continues to unravel, a bold new initiative from President Donald Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is poised to dismantle decades of unconstitutional ATF overreach. The bureau, once a mundane tax-collecting agency, has morphed into an armed enforcement wing targeting lawful gun owners under the guise of "public safety." Now, Trump’s DOGE is fighting back—slashing regulations, defanging bureaucrats, and restoring the constitutional right to bear arms without oppressive federal interference.Key points:
- The DOGE team, led by ATF General Counsel Robert Leider, aims to revise or eliminate up to 50 firearm regulations, with a symbolic deadline of July 4.
- Proposed changes include simplifying background check forms, reducing ATF’s surveillance of gun dealers, and overturning Biden-era rules like the “arm brace” ban.
- Critics claim loosening restrictions will empower criminals, but supporters argue it corrects decades of agency mission creep, protecting law-abiding citizens from bureaucratic harassment.
- The Trump administration has already moved to cut ATF’s inspector workforce by two-thirds, with some Republicans pushing to abolish the agency entirely.
From tax collectors to armed enforcers: The ATF’s disturbing evolution
What began as a Depression-era tax bureau under the Treasury Department has metastasized into a rogue enforcement agency with a history of lethal overreach—from Ruby Ridge to Waco. The ATF’s expansion accelerated under Biden, weaponizing minor paperwork errors to shutter gun stores and pushing arbitrary rules like reclassifying pistol braces as illegal under the National Firearms Act.
DOGE’s crackdown reverses this trend, rejecting the ATF’s self-appointed role as legislator, judge, and enforcer. “The Constitution empowers Congress to write laws, not unaccountable bureaucrats,” a DOGE insider told The Washington Post. By revoking Biden’s import bans, redundant background checks, and red-flag programs, DOGE aims to refocus the agency on prosecuting violent criminals—not harassing dealers over clerical errors.
Central to DOGE’s mission is ending the ATF’s covert gun registry—a longstanding fear of Second Amendment advocates. Though federal law bars a national database, the ATF’s National Tracing Center has exploited loopholes, digitizing millions of records from defunct dealers. Leaked documents reveal the agency traced 4.2 million firearms in 2022 alone, often without criminal investigations.
Under DOGE’s plan, digitized records would be purged, and background checks streamlined by consolidating repetitive questions on mental health, drug use, and military history into a single prompt. The revised Form 4473 would shrink from seven pages to three, cutting bureaucratic hurdles for lawful buyers while maintaining felony prohibitions.
Biden’s failed war on gun owners
The Biden administration’s war on gun owners intensified between 2021-2024, with aggressive policies targeting lawful firearm sales under the guise of "gun safety." The ATF’s new "zero tolerance" policy, enacted in 2021, resulted in hundreds of Federal Firearms License (FFL) revocations—often for minor clerical errors—while actual violent crime surged. Biden’s DOJ pushed expanded background checks and sought to redefine private sellers as dealers under the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act (BSCA). However, multiple courts blocked these overreaches. In Mock v. Garland (2023), a federal judge struck down ATF restrictions on pistol braces, exposing Biden’s abuse of regulatory power.
The administration’s failure was further exposed when the FBI’s own data showed that armed citizens stopped more crimes than Biden’s new rules prevented. Democrats’ push for an "assault weapons" ban stalled in Congress, while states like Texas and Florida expanded constitutional carry—directly countering Biden’s agenda. Even Biden’s attempt to pressure banks into defunding gun dealers backfired, as GOP-led states passed laws protecting firearm businesses from financial discrimination. Despite the ATF’s harassment of FFLs, shootings in Democrat-run cities like Chicago and Baltimore continued to rise, proving that targeting legal gun owners does nothing to stop crime.
Biden’s 11-15% drop in FFLs (per the ATF’s own data) only fueled the black market, while raids on law-abiding dealers—like the infamous 2022 raid on Tom’s Gun Depot—generated public backlash without convicting a single violent felon. Meanwhile, soft-on-crime policies like reduced bail for gun offenders (as seen in New York) undermined trust in Democrat-led "gun control." The administration’s most glaring contradiction? Pushing felony charges for paperwork errors while slashing penalties for actual firearm crimes—highlighting this isn't about safety, but control.
Now it's time for DOGE to take a jackhammer to the ATF's power and control.

DOGE cancels 230 contracts worth $2.8 billion to cut waste, saves $407 million
07/19/2025 // Laura Harris // 740 Views
Tags: big government, Department of Agriculture, DOGE, Donald Trump, federal contracts, freedom, government efficiency, government spending, Liberty, progress, USDA, wasteful spending, White House

- The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) cancelled 230 federal contracts last week, aiming to save taxpayers approximately $407 million as part of a broader push to eliminate waste and redirect spending to higher-priority domestic programs.
- Contracts were identified for termination using a combination of AI-powered analytics and financial audits, with focus on "risk indicators" like redundancy, project completion and misalignment with current federal priorities.
- Cancelled agreements include a $144,000 USDA project in Mexico and a $420,000 Treasury contract in Haiti, both considered out of sync with the administration's domestic-focused goals.
- The DOGE announcement coincides with a looming Senate vote on a $9.4 billion rescissions package, which includes a controversial $1.1 billion cut to public media funding over the next two years.
- President Donald Trump has strongly urged Republicans to support the cuts, warning that any GOP lawmaker who defends funding for public broadcasters like PBS and NPR will lose his endorsement. Senate Democrats are working to block the measure.
The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has revealed that it cancelled 230 contracts over the past week to save taxpayers roughly $407 million.
In an official post from DOGE on July 12, the agency described the effort as the result of a rigorous review process designed to root out contracts that were low-impact, duplicative or no longer aligned with federal priorities. The terminated agreements, with a collective ceiling value of $2.8 billion, were identified as part of a government-wide initiative aimed at streamlining contract expenditures and reallocating funds toward higher-impact domestic programs.
Among the more notable examples of cancelled contracts were a $144,000 consulting agreement from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) for sustainable landscape projects in Mexico and a $420,000 contract from the Department of the Treasury for mentoring and evaluation services in Haiti. Both contracts were deemed misaligned with the administration's current performance goals and funding focus, which has shifted more heavily toward domestic needs.
(Related: Musk's DOGE cancels 180 federal contracts, saves $2.6 billion.)
Agencies impacted by the cancellations span several departments, including Agriculture, Treasury, State and Interior. Each contract underwent a formal internal review, with financial officers assessing utility, performance history and strategic relevance.
The contract review process combines AI-powered analytics with in-depth financial audits. Contracts are flagged for potential termination based on specific "risk indicators," which include factors such as overlap with existing services or projects that have already been completed.
Officials emphasized that none of the cancelled contracts impact critical functions tied to national security, public health or treaty commitments. Many of the terminated agreements were found to be outdated, redundant or more cost-effectively managed in-house by federal personnel.
Senate nears vote on $9.4 billion spending cuts targeting public media and foreign aid
The announcement from DOGE comes as the Senate prepares for a contentious vote on a $9.4 billion rescissions package targeting public media and foreign aid. The proposal, strongly backed by President Donald Trump, faces an uphill battle as Senate Democrats work to block the measure and need just a handful of Republican defections to do so.
At the center of the fight is a proposed cut of nearly $1.1 billion from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB), the full amount the organization is scheduled to receive over the next two budget years. The CPB supports public broadcasters, including Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) and National Public Radio (NPR), which have long drawn conservative criticism for perceived political bias.
In a July 10 post on his Truth Social platform, Trump warned Republicans that opposing the cuts would come at a political cost.
"It is very important that all Republicans adhere to my Recissions Bill and, in particular, DEFUND THE CORPORATION FOR PUBLIC BROADCASTING (PBS and NPR), which is worse than CNN and MSDNC put together. Any Republican that votes to allow this monstrosity to continue broadcasting will not have my support or endorsement," Trump posted.
The White House has echoed Trump's criticisms, characterizing public media as politically slanted and fiscally expendable. Officials said the funds could be better used elsewhere as part of a broader push for government efficiency. But still, the rescissions package faces stiff resistance from Senate Democrats.
