Democratic senator Elizabeth Warren is going hard after Elon Musk and his cost-cutting Department of Government Efficiency, aka DOGE—yes, like the meme coin—claiming that the new body “appears to be a venue for corruption.”
In a letter to the world’s richest man and a key President Trump ally, Senator Warren suggested a long list of reforms which she says could save $2 trillion over a decade without cutting essential programs or raising middle-class taxes.
Tesla and SpaceX boss Musk now runs DOGE thanks to President Trump, who gave him the position last year. The department will work to cut bureaucracy and spending according to Musk. He was set to co-run the agency with Vivek Ramaswamy, but Musk’s fellow billionaire and Bitcoin advocate has already departed to run for Ohio governor.
The Department of Government Efficiency is still the DOGE, but the DOGE agency website no longer features the iconic Doge meme imagery shared with Dogecoin—and the original meme coin is now sinking. The price of Dogecoin jumped Tuesday once fans and investors noticed that the website for the Elon Musk-led government initiative featured the likeness of Kabosu, the late Shiba Inu pup who inspired the internet meme that Dogecoin is based on. Dogecoin rose as high as $0.385 on Tuesday, recovering so...
DOGE has already been criticized by some politicians—and was hit with a lawsuit the day Trump was inaugurated.
Senator Warren hit Musk and the department with a scathing letter on Thursday, saying she had “very serious concerns about both the DOGE process and the policies that you have publicly discussed to date.”
“As a result, the committee appears to be a venue for corruption, allowing well-connected billionaires to put government policies in place that enrich them while hurting ordinary Americans,” she wrote.
Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy's extra-governmental Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, was served a lawsuit Monday just minutes after President Donald Trump's inauguration. The 30-page complaint, brought by public interest law firm National Security Counselors, alleges that DOGE—which shares an acronym with the ticker of Dogecoin, Musk's favorite meme coin—is illegally operating as a federal advisory committee. In doing so, DOGE is operating in violation of the Federal Advisory Committ...
Warren claimed that DOGE could save the United States government and taxpayers a huge amount of money by exploring other means of cutting wasteful spending. In fact, she shared 30 ideas, all detailed in the extensive letter.
The Senator said that improving contract defense negotiations, cracking down on pharmacy benefit managers, clawing back tax expenditures, and closing loopholes for the wealthy could all save cash. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg.
Musk’s DOGE hasn’t revealed a great deal about how it will save money aside from trimming budgets and cutting staff, but this week suggested via X (formerly Twitter) that the government could stop producing the penny, citing JM Bullion figures that it cost taxpayers over $179 million in production costs in 2023 alone.
The penny costs over 3 cents to make and cost US taxpayers over $179 million in FY2023.
The Mint produced over 4.5 billion pennies in FY2023, around 40% of the 11.4 billion coins for circulation produced.
Penny (or 3 cents!) for your thoughts.

Arguably the digital asset industry’s most hostile American politician, Senator Warren has long criticized the space, going after tax-dodging crypto users—along with the billionaire elite.
DOGE appears to be named after Dogecoin, which trades with the ticker DOGE, as it’s Elon Musk’s favorite cryptocurrency. Trump even began selling t-shirts featuring himself, Musk, and a Shiba Inu dog after the agency was officially announced in November.
SpaceX CEO Elon Musk is helming a new U.S. government initiative aimed at lowering the federal budget deficit. Called the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), the initiative—which has an acronym identical to the ticker of Musk’s favorite cryptocurrency, Dogecoin—will “slash excess regulations, cut wasteful expenditures, and restructure Federal Agencies,” according to President-elect Donald Trump. Here's everything you need to know about DOGE. What is DOGE? DOGE is a U.S. government initia...
Musk has repeatedly claimed that the original meme coin could be used for payments, and the cryptocurrency has experienced a surge in value in recent months as Musk took to the campaign trail to support Trump ahead of his agency appointment.

Australia’s financial intelligence agency has fined Melbourne-based crypto exchange Cointree $75,120 for failing to submit suspicious activity reports within the required timeframe. The Australian Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre took enforcement action after the crypto exchange voluntarily disclosed delays in meeting its anti-money laundering reporting obligations, according to a statement on Thursday. SMRs are mandatory filings submitted by regulated entities when they suspect a transa...
U.S. prosecutors have charged 12 more people in connection with a cybercrime ring that allegedly stole more than $263 million in crypto through a sophisticated social engineering and hacking operation and spent the proceeds on expensive cars, nightclub blowouts, and luxury goods. The charges, unsealed Thursday in a four-count indictment against Malone Lam, 20, and Jeandiel Serrano, 21, were announced by the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia, the FBI, and IRS Criminal Investigat...
Coinbase is facing a rough week on multiple fronts, just days after becoming the first crypto-native firm to join the S&P 500 index. On Thursday, the U.S.'s largest crypto exchange disclosed it had suffered a data breach involving insider collusion and an attempted $20 million Bitcoin blackmail attempt on May 11. In a video posted online, CEO Brian Armstrong revealed that overseas support agents had accepted bribes from criminals to leak sensitive user data, including names, addresses, partial...
