DOGE, or the Department of Government Efficiency, slated to be run by Trump allies Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, has begun making waves through Washington. Musk and Ramaswamy have already begun putting out preliminary plans for how they might tighten up federal spending to slash the deficit. Even those not known to be fans of the Trump administration, like Senator Chris Coons (D-DE), are conceding that this new department could be a step in the right direction. Congressman Aaron Bean (R-FL) joins the Rundown to explain why he and other Americans are excited for DOGE to get to work targeting government inefficiencies and wasteful spending.

Wall Street Journal education reporter Matt Barnum joins to explore what the Department of Education could look like under President Trump, as well as the GOP's plan to transfer power back to the states.
