According to the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) documents obtained by the Washington Post, Elon Musk's unofficial agency is set to launch what they have labeled as "Phase 3" of their drive to dismantle the government on Wednesday.
The report, from the Post's Hannah Natanson and Chris Dehghanpoor, stated the internal documents contain bullet points on how to force workers out of their jobs while avoiding legal entanglements down to how to phrase employee dismissals in emails and phone calls.
According to the report, the plan was created by DOGE staffers with three phases spread out over six months with a focus on firing any federal workers with ties to DEI programs and beyond that with the Veterans Affairs office and Health and Human Services targeted next.

The report notes the nation is currently in the midst of "Phase 2" which will give way to the first elements of "Phase 3" on Wednesday which will be in effect until July.
"DOGE’s 'Phase 3' starts later this month, on the 31st day of the administration, and lasts until the 180th day, which is in mid-July, according to the documents. That stage moves from placing workers on paid leave to calling for large-scale firings, the documents show. Ultimately, DOGE intends for the Trump administration to terminate all DEI-linked employees via a Reduction In Force (RIF) action — the federal form of layoffs — including some who work for legally mandated offices."
Among the bullet points are, "RIF the Phase 1 offices in their entirety,” which the Post reports is "already underway: The Office of Personnel Management last month directed agencies to submit written plans for firing all DEI office workers and encouraged agencies to begin issuing termination notices immediately."
"The 'Phase 3' period is supposed to include 'three workflows,' per a DOGE planning document. First, the Trump administration will identify and place on leave 'additional DEI-related employees' who do not work in a DEI office but are 'dispersed through normal operating divisions.' Second, the administration will lay off DEI offices 'in their entirety.' Third, the administration will lay off the 'corrupted branches' of statutorily required offices that work on civil rights and employment discrimination: 'We are exploring options for this,' the document reads."
Of note is a suggestion in the documents that there is some doubt within DOGE whether what they are doing is legal.
'A FAQ that DOGE created for agency heads showed that the team members did not always feel confident in the powers they were assuming. In one version of the draft FAQ, the second question — posed from the perspective of an agency head — asks, 'Under what authority are you directing us to do this?' Beneath the question is one word highlighted in yellow: 'EO,' referring to Trump’s executive order. Next to the acronym, in a set of brackets, there is a single character apparently questioning whether such an order would be sufficient: the Post is reporting.

Is all, or most of the gold in Ft Knox gone?
Apparently DOGE is now interested in performing an audit of it because there are strong suspicions that it's either ALL gone, or most of it's gone.
Senator Mike Lee just posted he has tried several times to visit Ft Knox now and they have refused him every time. At first they said "we're a military installation" to which him and his people said "I'm a US Senator and visit military installations all the time". They then responded "you still cannot come here"
