The politicization of the federal workforce continues: DOGE’s USDS Purge Included the Guy Who Keeps Veterans’ Data Safe Online
The dozens of USDS cuts last week hit teams like product management, design, and procurement. Kamens and other sources told WIRED that he is the only person from the USDS engineering team who was fired. He and others speculate that he was targeted because he had been publicly critical of DOGE in the weeks before the USDS cuts. DOGE did not return a request for comment about his removal.
