Even Defense Contractors Warming To Elon Musk’s Cost-Cutting Efforts At DOGE

Elon Musk’s goals for the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) have been pretty straightforward. He aims to address wasteful spending and eliminate unnecessary regulations.

It seems like an idea everybody could get behind on both sides of the aisle. After all, there’s no good reason not to stop wasting money. Oddly enough, though, there has been significant resistance from the usual suspects.

Musk’s initial targets have included updating outdated IT systems and reducing bureaucratic inefficiencies. He also intends to ensure transparency by posting all DOGE actions online and tackling issues such as failed audits and unauthorized federal expenditures.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
