According to the WaPo, which got their hands on the next phase of DOGE plans, a severe resegregation of government begins this week. Which, I imagine, will serve as cover for more Musk looting of the treasury. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/…
Screenshot from the Washington Post article, it reads:

In the coming weeks, the documents show, DOGE has planned for the
 Trump administration to trim staff from dozens of offices across the
 executive branch, including those that protect employees' civil rights
 and others that investigate complaints of employment discrimination in the federal workplace. Among the groups targeted are a Veterans Affairs office that works to ensure all veterans receive equal access to care and an office within Health and Human Services that provides information
 about the health of minority populations.
 The DOGE team is also looking to place on leave, and ultimately fire,
 scores of government employees who do not work in DEI roles but who
 perform functions that DOGE determined were related to DEI, the
 documents show. It is unclear precisely how DOGE intends to decide
 whether employees' jobs are tied to DEI. Such a strategy will push, if not
 violate, the law and could draw legal challenge, team members wrote in the documents.
