What to Expect from DOGE
Happy New Year! I went on the American Compass podcast last month to talk to American Compass chief economist Oren Cass about government efficiency, state capacity, and what Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is likely to tackle. We discuss: * Why is it so hard to fire federal employees? * Off-the-wall ways to save government money * The West Coast meets East Coast dynamic in DOGE * The secret to a successful blue ribbon commission Notes: This interview was originally published here. When used the phrase “fired for cause,” when I should have said “fired for performance.” SMEQA stands for Subject Matter Expert Qualification Assessments. This is a public episode.
