Top officials at the Department of Government Efficiency are set to leave their roles following the departure of DOGE head Elon Musk. Three officials – adviser Steve Davis, adviser and spokesperson Katie Miller, and attorney James Burnham – are leaving the administration, a White House official told The Hill.

Davis served in a leadership role at DOGE and has worked with Musk at several of his companies, including the Boring Company, SpaceX, and X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter.

Serving as DOGE’s “chief operating officer,” Davis spoke to Fox News in March, calling the work an “inspiring mission” that was “worth doing.” Davis also appeared at a briefing alongside Musk at the White House with a small group of reporters, when Musk spoke about DOGE’s work and its future.

Miller is the wife of Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy Stephen Miller and was also part of the first Trump administration. She was named to the DOGE advisory board in December. Burnham was DOGE’s general counsel. He’s also the president and founder of Vallecity Capital LLC and earlier served as a Supreme Court clerk for Justice Neil Gorsuch.

1. dog-e is a total fuck up..................

didn't musk latest space x rocket fall apart?

[AllaN01Bear]

14. yeppers and i remember when the pre$$ made a big deal about the boeing spacecraft to the point of embarressment.

[Mr. Evil]

24. And,

he still gets billions in no-bid gov't. contracts to have his regular fireworks show over the southeastern US.

[Deminpenn]

2. As expected

nt

[Wingus Dingus]

3. These guys all got their mitts into the inner machinery of our

systems and data, and now they're leaving, to do WHO KNOWS WHAT with it.

[gab13by13]

5. You are one of the few people here who get it.

Musk and his cyber-punks' work is done. Russia has access to all our government agencies and Democrats are celebrating.

No wonder we lose. No one pushed what happened at the NLRB when 15 minutes after the cyber-punks left, Russians tried to gain access to the NLRB using the correct user names and passwords. That means that Musk gave Russia that access.

How long was NLRB Gate in the news? 2 or 3 days? Democrats let it go away.

Yay, Musk never cut 3 trillion dollars, but he and Krasnov fired all of the honest workers and replaced them with Magats.

Yay, Democrats are winning, Musk is moving to a different office.

[Wingus Dingus]

8. I, too, think it's stupid that anyone is portraying this as some kind of win.

Cutting budgets and saving money was never the goal, just the cover story. On edit--plus "Big Balls" and those other little punks are still there as the guys on the inside following orders, unless anyone has heard anything different.

[Attilatheblond]

28. 'Businessmen' don't accept the purpose of government is to provide services society needs to function & prosper

They don't grasp that government is not a for-profit enterprise. Oh, they understand that government is a source of income for them, but refuse to see the connections between well functioning society where people's needs are addressed and the profitability of the marketplace is possible because of THE PEOPLE.

The high rollers with the fat egos think they are the reason for success. They fail to acknowledge the workers' and consumers' as the root of all profits. Too many think government spending on anything that isn't their project is waste.

[ananda]

29. By 'Businessmen' I assume you mean greedy psychopaths...

who, like all of Trump and co., don't really care about anyone
but themselves.

That of course is, eventually, a self-defeating prospect, though
profitable in the short term.

[OverBurn]

38. It was just to get rid of things that tRump and the GOP didn't like, never about saving money. They're gonna spend more

than any administration ever has in a 4 year period, breaking his first 1st term record.

[hamsterjill]

22. Exactly.

Mission accomplished. Their work is done and they can all go sit on the Riviera and smile.

[yardwork]

23. Take the money and run.

[Mr. Sparkle]

4. i look forward to charges been bought against all 3 some day

[gab13by13]

6. Yeah, maybe the new president will give Merrick Garland another chance?

[republianmushroom]

26. No, hopefully to someone who have them.

Merrick the Meek doesn't.

[4catsmom]

41. I hope their enablers are charged

or at least ostracized in their communities and never again re-elected to office. Imagine letting one or two people break the law so flagrantly and standing around doing nothing

[cstanleytech]

7. They better hope for a pardon.

[Hotler]

9. Run you fuckers. When we take power again and, we will. You will go to prison. nt

[k_buddy762]

11. Pardons will be issued

Most will never see the inside of a courtroom unless it is to testify against someone who wasn't lucky enough to get a pardon.

[Hotler]

13. Maybe so but, the seed of prison time has to be planted in the back of their mind.

Just to gnaw at them a little each day.
Be well.

[Fiendish Thingy]

10. What about "Big Balls"?

Is he still around?

Mr. Balls has some major karmic debt to pay off…

[mopinko]

12. how many of them r druggies, too?

they do tend to travel in packs.

[IronLionZion]

15. Katie Miller is Stephen Miller's wife

Maybe she'd rather spend more time with Elon

[BumRushDaShow]

16. He's got a helluva lot more money (including some of yours and mine stolen from the Treasury)

and lots of babies (and baby-mamas) around!

[IronLionZion]

19. Steve Miller Band - Go On Take The Money And Run

[BumRushDaShow]

20. LOL

[riversedge]

17. good

[travelingthrulife]

18. Better go back to Russia.

These people need to be tried and punished for what they did. They made millions screwing us over.

[Abstractartist]

21. Before

Before they go, democrats must insist all their desktop computers, laptops, emails, jump drives, disks, 8 track tapes, cassettes, cd roms, LP albums, 45 single records, and Atari games be turned in and accounted for.

All kidding aside, this needs to be a must.

[samnsara]

25. ...and we are gonna stalk them...

...names, locations, etc.......they will all be called in by congress. That oughta be fun to watch..wait til a doggy kid is grilled by Jasmine!

[hedda_foil]

27. Davis is the guy who was really running DOGE. He seems to be Musk's #2.

If he's gone, DOGE, may disappear. At least I hope so.

[Bluetus]

30. Long knives coming out - It is the way of the Beltway

Everybody hates Trump. Everybody hates Musk. But they bide their time. Now that Musk isn't around to protect his people, there will be a lot of "F off. This is my grift you are stepping on. Get outta here. Go back to Tesla and run your grifts there."

[Martin68]

31. "Run away!!!!

[Midnight Writer]

32. Burglars don't usually stay around for long after they've looted the joint.

[The Roux Comes First]

33. How Do You Suppose This Delightful Session of Baking in Power Will Eventually Be Depicted on Their CVs?

[Figarosmom]

34. Thats nice

I also wonder if there is a divorce in steven miller's future.

[Efilroft Sul]

35. Musk's departure from government marks the first time he's pulled out of anything that he screwed.

[tonekat]

36. They should be Tarred and Feathered. N/T

[barbtries]

37. "our work here is done."

y'all can cope with the devastation we've left for you.

[ancianita]

39. That 3 out of 60 still leaves a lot of Dogers to do the long term jobs. They're highly paid by Musk to stay offsite

to stay burrowed in and use those back doors to keep feeding data to his AI, which he will later use to contract out right back to the U.S.government he had his Dogers steal it all from.

[New Breed Leader]

40. Except Elon isn't leaving...

https://www.wired.com/story/doge-elon-musk-really-not-leaving/

[Warpy]

42. DOGE was a TOTAL FAILURE because it utterly failed to find enough waste, fraud or abuse

to come anywhere near the number King Puspocket had pulled out of his big, fat ass. They failed to find it because it wasn't there, most of it enriches guys like Musk.

They're jumping off that particular ship before it sinks under the weight of warrants, injunctions and lawsuits because most of their big dollar cuts were things they eliminated illegally, like USAID and VOA, among so many others.

Musk will skate away on his remaining billions, one hopes to a very discreet clinic somewhere in Europe to clean up and dry out for a year or so.

[kerry-is-my-prez]

43. They finally found out how many former Trump people have ended up in prison or bankrupt.

44. Good Riddance To All Of Them

They can't leave soon enough, can't go far enough.

[Karasu]

45. I'm assuming all the 20-year-old hacker brats are still staying on as the baton passes to Comrade Krasnov.
