Trump’s New DOGE Begins To Identify Federal Agencies For Overhaul
- “Federal government agencies are using, on average, just 12% of the space in their DC headquarters,” a Thursday post reads. “The Department of Agriculture, with space for more than 7,400 people, averaged 456 workers each day (6% occupancy). Why are American taxpayer dollars being spent to maintain empty buildings?”
- “In FY2024, U.S. Congress provided $516 billion to programs whose authorizations previously expired under federal law. Nearly $320 billion of that $516 billion expired more a decade ago,”
- The data shows that the federal government largely depends on taxpayer money to run its agencies and programs.
- “There are 438 federal government agencies and sub agencies,” Greene stated on X. “The federal government is the largest employer in the United States. The federal government is in debt at nearly $36 trillion dollars. And all of this is funded by American taxpayers. It’s truly shocking the American people haven’t torn down this government yet.”
