... “That doesn’t exist,” Office of Personnel Management Director Scott Kupor told Reuters earlier this month when asked about DOGE’s status.
It is no longer a “centralized entity,” Kupor added, in the first public comments from the Trump administration on the end of DOGE. ...
A government-wide hiring freeze - another hallmark of DOGE - is also over, Kupor said. ... “There is no target around reductions” anymore, Kupor said. ...
I don't think Senator Slotkin goes far enough in her comments. She's worried only about U.S. military possibly firing their weapons at Americans in our streets on our soil when the rule of law we agree to with the nations of the world is under attack by Trump in the Caribbean when he murders noncombatants.
Somebody's giving illegal orders to kill these people, and the buck stops with Trump.
"You tarnish us, we'll tarnish you. And after all we've done for you, too."
... Howell, a former Homeland Security official in the first Trump administration, criticizes the lack of data being shared by DHS to back up its claims that 600,000 deportations will be carried out by the end of the year. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the main agency responsible for these removals, has stopped publishing the monthly data to show this progress. There hasn't been a monthly release since Trump took office. "Without access to the data, it is impossible to ascertain how the DHS is supporting its varying claims of deportation and self-deportation numbers," the report says. ...

Even at 600k per year, the Trump administration will fall short of removing 11 million illegal aliens by 8.6 million by the time it is over.
And they'll waste $85 billion while doing it.
"The American people voted for mass deportations. They're getting mass communications instead," the report's author Mike Howell tells Axios.
Maybe AXIOS released the plan in the first place to sabotage the whole thing, to which I say Hurrah!
Ukraine peace plan in chaos after Marco Rubio 'told senators Russia had authored proposal'
Marco Rubio was forced on the defensive last night after a bipartisan group of senators claimed he told them the US's peace plan for Ukraine was authored by Russia.
The US Secretary of State denied their account, with a spokesman calling it "blatantly false", but the dispute threatens to derail President Trump's push for a peace deal to be achieved this week.
Rubio took the extraordinary step of suggesting online that the senators were mistaken, even though they said he was their source for the information.
The widely leaked 28-point US-backed peace plan was, according to the White House, the result of a month of work between Rubio and Trump envoy Steve Witkoff along with input from what it said was both Ukrainians and Russians.
The plan accepts many Russian demands that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has categorically rejected on dozens of occasions, including giving up large pieces of territory.
Trump says he wants Ukraine to accept the plan by late next week.
"This administration was not responsible for this release in its current form," said Republican Mike Rounds from South Dakota, speaking at a security conference in Canada. "They want to utilize it as a starting point."
Rounds said "it looked more like it was written in Russian to begin with." ...
Tommy Pigott, a State Department spokesperson, said the senators' account was "blatantly false." ...
