President Donald Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, has disbanded, eight months earlier than expected, Reuters reported Monday morning.

The agency was set up in January to cut government waste and shrink federal agencies, which resulted in job loss for tens of thousands of federal workers.

Director of the Office of Personnel Management Scott Kupor told Reuters that DOGE “doesn’t exist,” adding that most of the department’s functions have been absorbed by his office.

Reuters reporter Courtney Rozen, who first broke this story, joined WTOP anchor Mark Lewis to discuss the end of DOGE.
