Judge Glock, director of research at the Manhattan Institute, discussed his new article about what DOGE achieved with Jace Lington. Glock argued that if you set aside the inflated rhetoric about cost savings, DOGE actually made significant cuts to the size of the federal workforce. They talk about civil service reform, USAID and IRS debates, and which reforms could endure, while distinguishing measurable operational effects from policy disagreements.
