Alt US Digital Service

The official resistance team of U.S. Digital Service. We are the Builders.

We’re showing up, speaking out, and calling BS on the destruction of our public institutions. Tonight's Built to Serve newsletter is about leadership, rebuilding, and doing the work.

Elon Musk is out, but DOGE is still inside the federal government. We’re already planning how to rebuild.

We the Builders Kate and Milo joined Andy and Helen from The Cyber Show to talk about what's happening to us here, share ideas across the Atlantic, and talk about what it means to stop the destruction and begin to rebuild.

We the Builders will be telling our story at For the Public in St Paul on May 14th! We're excited to share how we got started, why community matters so much, and looking forward to rebuilding government (and its technology) very soon.

We didn’t walk away when DOGE replaced USDS. We organized. We documented. We got to work.
🛠️ We the Builders is featured in Nextgov/FCW— and we’ve got more coming.

Trump’s 100-day report card:
🚫 Executive Orders blocked
📉 Approval ratings tanked
⚖️ Courts siding with workers, not chaos

When tariffs change, it’s not just a line on a spreadsheet. It’s a massive shift for public servants, ports, businesses, and you.

We break down what a real, careful implementation would look like, and why reckless change is so dangerous.

Cuts that break things aren’t reforms — they’re sabotage. DOGE's "efficiency revolution" is reckless and dangerous.
We deserve better.

This is the tribute we wish every departing civil servant could receive. No press release. No parade. Just quiet, brilliant work in service to others. You deserved more.

"Leave now or we'll make you go."

A public servant shares the resignation letter they wish they could submit — and a powerful reminder of why public service matters.

The NLRB whistleblower report paints a chilling picture: when oversight fails, real damage follows. Let's talk about it:

"State capture doesn’t always show up in a military uniform or a crown. Sometimes, it wears a flag pin, gives a thumbs up, and promises to make everything great again." 🔥🔥

Great piece from Friends of USAID.

We've built a timeline tracking #DOGE actions since inception—accessing sensitive data, unjustified staff removals, and reckless "efficiency" moves.

Transparency matters. See how a scalpel beats a sledgehammer every time:

Elon Musk wants you to think he is a technical genius. We don't think that's the case. Quite the opposite, in fact. In today's article, we describe what damage can be done by a team of young people and yes men led by this man.
