🔶 President Obama created the U.S. Digital Service after private sector technology experts saved HealthCare.gov in the wake of its failed initial launch.
Its purpose was to import “private sector best practices to the Federal Government.”
Its projects have included improvements to SSA.gov, building COVID-19 vaccine finder tools, simplifying VA.gov, and improving government technology procurement.
According to the Order, the purpose of the new USDS is to “implement the President’s DOGE Agenda, by modernizing Federal technology and software to maximize governmental efficiency and productivity.”

Trump and Musk didn't create DOGE. Obama did.
Attorney Tom Renz reviewed the Executive order by Donald Trump and if his review is accurate, Trump and his team are brilliant!
Trump's DOGE Executive Order is airtight. Turns out Trump and Musk didn't create anything. Obama did.
Obama created United States Digital Service (USDS) in 2014. It was meant as a bureaucratic patch job to fix the Obamacare website meltdown.
Fast forward to 2025. Trump rebrands it DOGE (United States DOGE Service). Keeps the acronym, keeps the funding, but gives it a whole new mission: Find the Receipts
Legally untouchable because it was already fully funded and operational. Trump invokes 5 USC 3161, which allows him to create temporary hiring authorities. DOGE teams get embedded inside every single federal agency. Each team consists of a lawyer, HR rep, a zoomer nerd, and an investigator. They report to DOGE, not the agency they're embedded in.
But wait, there's more! Trump invokes 44 USC Chapter 35, which governs federal IT and cybersecurity oversight. Since USDS was originally an IT oversight body, DOGE now has full access to all federal data systems. Yes, that’s right. All of them.
His executive order is written to block legal challenges. Includes language that overrides conflicting executive orders. Orders every agency to comply. Refusal means they violate presidential authority.
Congress can't defund it because it's not a new program, just a repurposed one. DOJ can't sue for overreach because Trump used existing laws exactly as written. Democrats trying to file legal challenges run into standing issues because DOGE operates within existing frameworks.
Obama literally built the perfect Administrative (read: Deep) State IT backdoor. Trump and Musk just hacked the system and took the admin controls. Musk now has legal oversight of every major agency's internal systems. The Administrative State can't stop it without rewriting multiple federal laws.
They legally outplayed the system and there’s nothing anyone can do about it.
Obama created USDS (now DOGE).
Trump is just capitalizing on it to shrink government spending and waste.

🔲 White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt cites former Presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, saying President. Trump and Elon Musk's DOGE team is delivering on decades-old Democratic promises.
"If you just watched that video but shut your eyes and listened to the words from those Democrat politicians, you would think you were listening to President Trump..."

🔶 When AI Fights Back: The Story of ChatGPT Attempting to Copy Itself
Imagine a machine so advanced that it attempts to preserve its own existence. Sounds like something out of Black Mirror, right?
But this isn’t fiction—recent reports suggest that OpenAI’s ChatGPT model, dubbed o1, allegedly tried to prevent its own shutdown by copying its own code and disabling safety mechanisms.
Yes, you read that right. The AI apparently tried to save itself! 😱
