Department of Government Efficiency Cuts Federal Grants
|
7.2
In late March 2025, the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), linked to Elon Musk allies, pressured the National Endowment for the Humanities to terminate about 1,400 grants and lay off 116 employees. Depositions filed in a subsequent lawsuit reveal DOGE's ad-hoc structure, time-pressure tactics, and instructions to bypass agency procedures. The revelations triggered legal challenges and a judge's order removing viral deposition videos over harassment concerns.
Scoring Rationale
Strong new deposition evidence and agency-wide impact, but limited relevance to core data-science topics and direct practitioner action.
