Exclusive: DOGE 'doesn't exist' with eight months left on its charter

WASHINGTON, Nov 23 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump's Department of Government Efficiency has disbanded with eight months left to its mandate, ending an initiative launched with fanfare as a symbol of Trump's pledge to slash the government's size but which critics say delivered few measurable savings.

"That doesn't exist," Office of Personnel Management Director Scott Kupor told Reuters earlier this month when asked about DOGE's status.

But DOGE denies this:

In response to the disbandment rumors, DOGE took to social media platform X. The agency said, "As usual, this is fake news from @Reuters. President Trump was given a mandate by the American people to modernize the federal government and reduce waste, fraud, and abuse." The post also highlighted that DOGE had recently terminated 78 contracts deemed wasteful, saving taxpayers $335 million in the process.

So who is telling porkies? 

One of them is fake news.
