What is DOGE? Biting dog now controlled by Elon Musk was once a meme and crypto coin

India Today  

We live in unreal times. On Wednesday, the upcoming US President Donald trump announced the formation of DOGE, a government agency that would be headed by tech tycoon Elon Musk and fellow MAGA brother Vivek Ramaswamy. We don’t yet know if the DOGE is going to be an official agency or unofficial, like the way party committees are in some authoritarian countries, but what we can imagine is that it is going to be a biting dog of Elon Musk, the single-biggest person behind the MAGA machine that made Donald Trump win. It is possible that with the DOGE Elon Musk may do to the US government what he did to Twitter aka X when he bought it: fire some 70 per cent employees. Because people know that Elon Musk loves the word Doge, in the last one month, and particularly after the US elections, its value has gone up by 240 per cent.
