Since January 20 — the day the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) was created — the United States has accumulated an astonishing $2.1 trillion in new debt.

Spread across 326 consecutive days, this translates into a staggering pace of $6.5 billion in new debt every day.
These alarming figures were highlighted in the latest Kobeissi Letter, which also confirmed that the already controversial DOGE office has now been shut down.

DOGE Promised a Spending Revolution. In Reality, It Delivered Only Cosmetic Cuts
When DOGE was launched, it presented itself as a bold project meant to “clean up the federal government,” eliminate wasteful spending, shut down unnecessary programs, and deliver $1–2 trillion in savings.
This mission quickly gained strong public support. But the reality looked very different.

What Was Actually Saved?
Total savings ended up at only $160–214 billion, a tiny fraction of the massive federal budget.DOGE often targeted discretionary spending, which makes up only a small percentage of total expenditures — the cuts looked significant but had minimal real impact.The office claimed it saved $60 billion by terminating 13,000 federal contracts, including IT projects, consulting work, and certain expensive defense programs.Ending 15,000 federal grants was supposed to save another $49 billion.Canceling office leases added roughly $100 million in savings.Staff reductions in several agencies and the rollback of certain DEI programs contributed about $1 billion more.
However, experts warn that many of these savings were:

🔹 counted twice,

🔹 overstated,

🔹 or lacked proper justification.

And most importantly — DOGE never touched the biggest spending categories, which dominate the federal budget.

Therefore, slowing the debt with small-scale cuts was simply impossible.

The Real Problem: Mandatory Programs and Interest Costs That Grow Automatically
Analysts now expect the U.S. federal budget for 2025 to reach $7 trillion. The main reason? Most of the government’s spending is mandatory — locked in by law — and grows every year.

The largest components of the budget are:
🔹 Social Security – 23% ($1.6 trillion)

🔹 Medicare & Medicaid – 28% ($2 trillion)

🔹 Interest payments – 14% ($1 trillion)

These three categories alone account for more than half of all federal spending.
And the pressure is only increasing:
The aging population is driving up the number of Americans receiving Social Security and Medicare.Healthcare costs rise every year, making Medicare and Medicaid increasingly expensive.Federal Reserve interest rates raise the cost of servicing the national debt — the government must pay more interest to holders of Treasuries, bonds, and other securities.

Given this structure, even massive cuts in the remaining 35% of the budget — defense and discretionary spending — cannot significantly slow down debt growth, which is currently accelerating by $6.5 billion per day.

Trump Confirms DOGE Shutdown. What’s Next?
President Donald Trump has officially confirmed that the DOGE office has been terminated.

Its short existence revealed a crucial lesson:
👉 Cutting small or symbolic expenditures isn’t enough.

👉 Real change requires tackling mandatory programs and interest costs.
DOGE generated headlines, introduced dozens of cuts, and attracted public attention — yet it did not stop nor even slow the explosive growth of U.S. federal debt.

Elon Musk is once again doing what was once considered science fiction: Neuralink — the first chip that directly connects the human brain to a computer.
This is no longer a theory, nor a prototype — but a working technology that is being showcased publicly.
In a recent video, a paralyzed man controls a drone with the power of thought. Yes, literally.

The disbanding of the Department of Government Efficiency and mysterious movements shake Washington
In a surprising development that has reshuffled the cards within the federal administration, the "Department of Government Efficiency" (DOGE) — the initiative launched by President Trump on the first day of his re-election — has been dissolved, even though its mandate was supposed to extend until July 2026.
The step came with a strange calmness and without widespread official announcement, raising a wave of questions about the reasons for the early closure and the disturbances that preceded the decision.
