"Leaked Slides: DOGE Playing Star Role In DOE Kill List Drama" [1]
"Elon Musk’s government-slashing entity appears to be orchestrating a Department of Energy push to cut spending on a slew of projects."
"Elon Musk’s government-slashing team is reviewing possible cuts across the Department of Energy, according to materials circulated at an internal meeting and obtained by POLITICO’s E&E News.
Staffers who tuned into an online DOE meeting last week were informed that the so-called Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, is reviewing information from across the department regarding “active acquisition and financial assistance.”
The meeting arrives as lists circulate within the agency and on Capitol Hill, showing what appears to be long lists of projects funded by the Inflation Reduction Act and bipartisan infrastructure law that are up for potential cuts under the Trump administration. One draft that POLITICO obtained suggests funding for up to four hydrogen production hubs could be cut."
