The Department of Government Efficiency, the White House agency led by Elon Musk, has been making headlines every day, but not always for the right reasons. When Musk claimed that all DOGE actions were posted to the official DOGE website, many were surprised to find the site completely blank.

Musk defended DOGE’s transparency efforts during a recent press conference in the Oval Office with President Donald Trump. However, the DOGE website, which Musk claimed served as a central location for all departmental updates, was empty for weeks, as critics soon noted. Instead of showing work or updates, it only had a simple page with a note about big changes coming.

• ‘Scrolling To UBI' — Deloitte's #1 fastest-growing software company allows users to earn money on their phones. You can invest today for just $0.26/share with a $1000 minimum.

This contradiction didn't go unnoticed. Mark Cuban, who has long supported reducing government size and improving efficiency, called out Musk on social media, saying, “This says it all.” A couple of days before that, Cuban suggested that inviting Democrats to work alongside DOGE could enhance transparency, adding, "If you have nothing to hide, hide nothing."

Following mounting criticism, the DOGE website was finally updated on Feb. 12. It now features sections on government workforce data, and regulations, along with DOGE's posts from X. Notably, it was still missing the Savings section which reads, “Receipts coming over the weekend!” and many blog posts were backdated, raising questions about when they were actually published.

The website faced further issues after its rushed launch. At least two pages were defaced by hackers who appeared to have accessed an open database used by the site. Two messages appeared on separate pages, reading, “this is a joke of a .gov site” and “THESE ‘EXPERTS’ LEFT THEIR DATABASE OPEN -roro.”

DOGE highlights recent contract cancellations, such as ending DEI programs and cutting media subscriptions, claiming to have saved taxpayers over $150 million. However, concerns remain about the accuracy and transparency of these figures. The site even acknowledges potential data errors, promising to improve over time. As a note under the Meet the U.S. Government section points out, “This is DOGE’s effort to create a comprehensive, government-wide org chart. This is an enormous effort, and there are likely some errors or omissions. We will continue to strive for maximum accuracy over time.”

Musk’s role at DOGE has also sparked debate. As an unelected official with significant business interests, there are worries about conflicts of interest, especially since many of the agencies affected by DOGE's cuts oversee industries tied to Musk. Additionally, Musk’s federal salary remains undisclosed, adding to transparency concerns.

The launch of DOGE and its website has been anything but smooth. While Musk promises efficiency, transparency and reform, critics argue that the initiative is more about political influence than practical savings.
