DOGE Refers Peace Institute Alleged Data Wipe to DOJ

  • On May 1, 2025, allegations of extensive deletion of accounting data at the U.S. Institute of Peace were reported to the Department of Justice and FBI by officials from DOGE during their ongoing federal agency audit.
  • This referral followed DOGE investigators accessing the Institute's headquarters and finding that over a terabyte of financial records had been deleted to conceal wrongdoing.
  • The nonprofit organization established by Congress to promote peacebuilding, staffed by approximately 300 employees, reportedly did not reply to requests for comment after nearly the entire workforce was dismissed following findings by DOGE.
  • Elon Musk, founder of DOGE, claimed that although a massive amount of financial records was erased to conceal wrongdoing, the group was able to retrieve the information due to their technical expertise, highlighting DOGE’s efforts to expose the alleged misconduct.
  • The referral indicates increased federal scrutiny of government agencies' accountability and supports recent legislative efforts to formalize DOGE’s cost-saving reforms into law.
