DOGE—The Department of Government Efficiency has been on a tirade lately, firing employees across many Federal Agencies. Many of these so-called firings have resulted in lawsuits against the United States. Further, many of these lawsuits have resulted in 'injunctions'—freezes on actions carried out by the government (or DOGE) to slow down wrongdoings. The result will be more costly to the United States because of the need to pay legal fees and settlements from these frivolous lawsuits.
The Trump administration approaches firings in the wrong way. Like the approach taken to reduce immigration levels in the United States, the Trump Administration does not know how to effectively carry out strategies. This lack of strategy and efficiency has resulted in numerous lawsuits. In the end, the cost will outweigh the gain in efficiency.
On an ending note, the reduction in government will return as a hindrance to the U.S. overall. Just wait until the vital services - Medicaid and Social Security - have been far reduced in staffing to the point where these agencies do not run at all. To all of the Republicans out there who rely on these services for their well-being, I wonder how they will feel when their welfare is threatened? Stay tuned.
