What is Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy's intention with DOGE?

Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, leaders of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), intend to reduce the cost of the US government and make the government more efficient by using this department. To decide this, they will review federal regulations and identify unnecessary or superfluous regulations.

Musk and Ramaswamy, together with legal experts working in government agencies, will use modern technology and apply the decisions of the Supreme Court to federal regulations. They will present their results to President Trump, who can then stop the enforcement of those rules and begin the process to investigate and punish them.

DOGE's ultimate goal is to free individuals and businesses from unwanted rules and improve America's economy. Musk and Ramaswamy also intend to target excessive federal spending, which exceeds $500 billion annually.
