Former DOGE official Tyler Hassen is pushing back on the public image of Elon Musk and the team, offering a sharply different account of what he says actually happened behind closed doors.
Hassen says Musk was so consumed with solving problems that he sometimes slept on the floor of a nearby office.
He also describes DOGE staff going through thousands of contracts and grants, asking officials to “defend the spend” and explain what was mission critical.
Hassen acknowledges DOGE didn’t accomplish everything it set out to do, but argues the experience exposed deeper problems inside government operations.

Your immigration status could become part of filing your federal taxes.
The Trump administration is moving to require taxpayers claiming certain refundable tax credits to certify whether they meet federal citizenship or immigration eligibility standards. The IRS says the proposal covers the refunded portions of four credits, including the EITC and Child Tax Credit.
Treasury argues the rules would stop people who are legally barred from receiving federal public benefits from accessing them through refundable credits. Critics are raising concerns about how immigration information collected through the tax system could ultimately be used.
The IRS has already posted its draft 2026 Form 1040 and Schedule 3-A, although draft forms remain subject to change.

Who are these heroes? A race against the flames turns into a remarkable rescue when two Good Samaritans stop and help Florida deputies pull a woman from a burning vehicle.
Footage released by the Orange County Sheriff’s Office shows deputies working to free the woman before the two passersby rush in to help.
Their assistance proves so “critical” that the sheriff’s office is now trying to track them down to personally thank them and recognize their courage.
One person was hospitalized with burns following the crash, while another person in the vehicle suffered minor injuries.
