President Donald Trump’s Elon Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency(DOGE) has just taken a sledgehammer to the Democrats’s taxpayer-funded “diversity, equity, and inclusion” (DEI) agenda.
In just 48 hours, DOGE slashed a staggering $370 million in taxpayer dollars being blown on far-left DEI initiatives at the Department of Education (DOE).
It comes as DOGE continues to purge wasteful spending and fraudulent abuse of taxpayer funds by the federal government.
DOGE revealed the latest cuts in a post on X.
Musk’s team terminated 70 DEI training grants within the DOE.
According to DOGE, the grants totaled a staggering $373 million.
However, none of the grant money was being used to educate America’s future generations.
Instead, the money was being blown on the Democrats’ Marxism-rooted DEI agenda.
The cost-cutting department said one grant was funding training for teachers to “engage in ongoing learning and self-reflection to confront their own biases and racism and develop asset-based anti-racist mindsets.”
Over the past several weeks, DOGE has announced the cancellation of various streams of funding to DEI in education.
The funding included $9.7 million for UC Berkeley to develop “a cohort of Cambodian youth with enterprise-driven skills.”
The latest spending sweep comes just days after DOGE announced the termination of another 89 DOE contracts totaling $881 million.
The canceled contracts included more than $100 million in DEI grants.
“Hurrah” Heather Higgins, CEO of Independent Women’s Voice, wrote in a post on X in response to the latest DOGE cuts.
The Education Department has been cracking down on DEI practices in education since President Trump returned to the White House.
Last week, the DOE ordered all 50 state education departments to remove DEI policies within 14 days.
Those who fail to comply risk losing federal funding.
The letter said the “overt and covert racial discrimination that has become widespread in this nation’s educational institutions” will no longer be tolerated.
Meanwhile, Musk’s DOGE has also uncovered shocking Social Security figures.
As Slay News reported earlier, in a post on X, Musk revealed that millions of people listed in a Social Security database are recorded as still living far beyond 100 years old.
He noted that when “the death field [is] set to FALSE,” the database lists millions of “living” Americans between the ages of 100 and 159.
Alarmingly, the database shows one person between the ages of 360 and 369 is listed in the Social Security database.
Musk’s post features a chart indicating there are more than 20 million listed with ages 100 and higher.
This includes more than 3.9 million in the 130-139 age range and more than 3.5 million in the 140-149 range.
It also shows more than 1.3 million in the 150-159 range.
According to the Social Security database, these are the numbers of people in each age bucket with the death field set to FALSE!
Maybe Twilight is real and there are a lot of vampires collecting Social Security 🤣🤣 pic.twitter.com/ltb06VX98Z

While the U.S. population count in the 2020 census was more than 331 million, the count of people ages 100 and older was just under 90,000, according to U.S. Census Bureau data.
The oldest American citizen to have ever lived was Sarah Knauss (1880 – 1999).
Knauss reached the age of 119 years and 97 days.
