Since Franklin D. Roosevelt, one way of measuring the success of the US Presidential Administration is to use your achievements in the first 100 days. With this standard, Second Administration of President Trump looks pretty successful.
From January 20, the presidential cabinet launched decisive actions at almost every political front. But the highest risk and high potential initiative was the Elon Musk or Doga Government Department. Founded in the shell of the US digital service of former President Obama, Doge was charged with removing waste, fraud and abuse in an effort to rework the Federal Government. For anyone else, such an initiative would look oxeping. But for the male, which revolutionized more industry and succeeded in the high -conflict management scenarios, the cautious hope seemed appropriate.
During the first 30 days, the men’s Doge method resembled a mission to seek and destroy. Musk sent small teams of lawyers, engineers and human resources experts to government agencies, instructing them to reduce wasteful consumption and unnecessary, ideological programs. Musk seems to have identified two switches – payments and staff – providing the greatest influence. Doge teams quickly organized a decrease in labor and canceled billions of dollars In government contracts, two steps that reduce the consumption and reverse process of capturing the left.
Last week I had a seat in the first row to this procedure. I have published material from the current investigation of ideological corruption at the Department of Education and its networks. This material painted the damn picture of the ruling ideologies of the department.
In one videoNon -governmental organizations of the Department of Education claimed that public school educators should disstigmatize children’s “sex work”, especially for “Queer and Trans Person” and “LGBTQ+ Young”. In anotherActivists with the Department of NGO’s organizations Department of Education claimed that babies develop racial bias and start “attributing negative features” non-white races by the age of five. And finally, I posted clip from NGO’s organization that received a $ 8 million support to promote the idea that America was “rationalized power structure, privilege, [and] oppression. “
For close observers of the world of education, none of this surprised. But with President Trump on duty, there is now a chance to reform. A few hours after I published this material, the education department announced That he canceled the grants, a total of $ 350 million, for centers for assistance in the capital and regional educational laboratories that organized such training. “So many such situations”, ” spoken Musk on x, pass“Financing for racist training for babies has been canceled.”

Doge’s fast action reflects a number of important events. First, national policy is now high on the network, and Musk’s X is a discourse form. Journalists circulate ideas on social networks. Government officials can then execute them, sometimes within a few hours. The process creates a virtuous circle, with journalists, creators of politics and technologists who publish information and take corrective measures as needed.
Another notable development is speed. Unlike many government bureaucrats, musk and Team Act at a lightning pace. Their ambition is to cancel billions of dollars every day in state contracts, and they use their feed social media to identify real -time waste. They understand that the most visible elements of waste are not a direct fraud, but an ideological programming that does not serve constructive public purpose.
These initial strikes at the Education Department could be an opening for a wider fight. The public can now see that the department partly functions as a patronage scheme for left ideology. Supervising a massive budgetWhich then disperses to universities, schools and non -governmental organizations that mostly improve the monolithic leftist line. The question is how many doings can go dismantling.
Although some of the departments of the Department of almost certainly continued federal student assistance and specialized financing of the K-12-grade could execute billions more in consumption and set the stage on the Congress to the Congress on abolish the department Overall. These target missions in theory will create permission for greater actions in the future.

So far, access seems to bring fruit, but as with any initiative that includes the Government, we should remain careful. Bureaucracy has an extraordinary ability to survive, in part because of its proportion. Even with artificial intelligence And a team of talented engineers, Doge Tim is Underdog.
Doga wins for now. But the bureaucracy barely started to return.
