The U.S. official debt has increased by $2.1 trillion since the establishment of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) on January 20. This rise equates to an average daily increase of $6.5 billion over 326 days. DOGE, initially led by Elon Musk, was tasked with reforming federal agencies to align with Trump's priorities. However, Musk resigned on April 25, leading to a slowdown in the department's activities. Although DOGE was intended to function until July 2026, it has been dissolved, and the status of its six core members remains unknown.
