United States President-elect Donald Trump has confirmed he is "prepared" to declare a national emergency and use military assets to fulfil his 2024 election campaign promise to carry out mass deportations. Trump made the announcement on Monday in a short post on his Truth Social platform in response to a post by Tom Fitton, president of the conservative group Judicial Watch.

DOGE isn't a official government department. All Elon and Ramaswamy can do is make recommendations. It's a FACA committee.

en.wikipedia.org

"The Federal Advisory Committee Act defines advisory committee as "any committee, board, commission, council, conference, panel, task force, or other similar group" that dispenses "advice or recommendations" to the President of the United States, and excludes bodies that also exercise operational functions."

Excludes bodies that also exercise operational functions! I can't even. But the good news is, "DOGE" will "dispense advice or recommendations."

Let me repeat this, since it's so funny: the "Department of Government Efficiency" is not even part of the government. It literally has no power of its own. Everything Elon will be doing now, he could have done six months ago.

The result of this exercise will be a report which suggests to various agencies how they should save money. Or something.
