El DOGE aseguró que sigue operando, pese a las difamaciones. 

Overview

  • OPM director Scott Kupor told Reuters the Department of Government Efficiency "no longer exists" as a centralized entity.
  • Internal documents and officials indicate DOGE’s functions were absorbed largely by OPM, with staff reassigned across agencies including OMB and HHS.
  • DOGE’s official X account rejected the Reuters report as false and claimed it ended 78 contracts last week and saved $335 million, a figure not independently verified.
  • There has been no formal public announcement ending DOGE despite a presidential decree that set its mandate through July 2026.
  • Independent reviews by AP, NPR, and Ars Technica previously found major inconsistencies and errors in DOGE’s reported savings, including incorrect contract data.
