"We will also have a leaderboard for [the] most insanely dumb spending of your tax dollars. This will be both extremely tragic and extremely entertaining," he wrote.
When announcing the new department on Tuesday, Trump said its purpose will be to "dismantle government bureaucracy, slash excess regulations, cut wasteful expenditures, and restructure federal agencies."
"DOGE" will advise and guide the administration by utilizing knowledge from outside of government and will partner with the White House and the Office of Management and Budget to "drive large scale structural reform."
