The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) initiative has assigned a review team to examine operations at the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), marking another expansion of DOGE&#8217;s oversight into independent federal agencies amid mounting transportation safety concerns.
What Happened: The NTSB confirmed Wednesday that a DOGE team has been assigned to review its operations, <a href="https://www.reuters.com/en/doge-team-assigned-review-national-transportation-safety-board-operations-2025-05-21/">according </a>to Reuters.
This follows DOGE&#8217;s pattern of reviewing independent agencies and recent attempts to examine legislative branch entities.
Earlier this month, the White House dismissed three Democratic commissioners from the Consumer Product Safety Commission after DOGE team visits. The fired commissioners filed suit Wednesday challenging their dismissals.
NTSB Chair Jennifer Homendy told reporters in March that the agency had avoided personnel losses from government job cuts and remained exempt from DOGE&#8217;s buyout offers.
In an April 14 congressional letter, Homendy said the Trump administration recognized the NTSB&#8217;s critical role. The 400-employee agency submitted a reorganization plan eliminating 14 positions through attrition.
The review comes as aviation safety incidents surge. The January 29 mid-air collision between an American Airlines Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAL#NASDAQ">AAL</a>) regional jet and an Army helicopter killed 67 people, prompting multiple NTSB investigations.
The agency typically handles over 2,000 investigations annually, including recent train derailments and the 2024 Baltimore Key Bridge collapse.

(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) co-founder Bill Gates has criticized Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Musk&#8217;s $2 trillion budget cut push, warning of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45345966/bill-gates-criticizes-elon-musk-over-usaid-cuts-demonizing-aid-workers-is-deeply-unfair-warns-against-undermining-global-health-efforts">&#8220;millions of deaths&#8221;</a> from halting foreign aid programs. Gates called Musk&#8217;s efficiency claims unrealistic for such massive reductions.
DOGE teams are reviewing leases, staffing, and contracts across smaller agencies as part of sweeping government overhaul efforts. However, transportation safety oversight faces increased scrutiny following recent incidents.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer raised concerns about <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45486040/chuck-schumer-raises-concerns-over-trump-and-doge-impact-on-us-coast-guard-after-mexican-ship-collides-with-brooklyn-bridge-we-know-theyve-been-meddling">DOGE&#8217;s impact on Coast Guard operations</a> after a Mexican naval vessel collision with the Brooklyn Bridge killed two crew members. Schumer cited Trump&#8217;s removal of Admiral Linda Fagan as Coast Guard Commandant, leaving the position vacant, and hiring freezes affecting water traffic control staffing.
The NTSB&#8217;s independence in investigating transportation accidents remains crucial as safety incidents increase across aviation, maritime, and rail sectors. Any operational changes could impact the agency&#8217;s ability to conduct thorough safety investigations that inform regulatory decisions affecting publicly traded transportation companies.

Trump's DOGE Assigns Review Team To Examine NTSB Amid Firings And Safety Oversight Concerns

Personal-finance guru Dave Ramsey dismissed Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) investors as &#8220;stupid,&#8221; adding, &#8220;you're gonna lose your money&#8221; during a February 2014 radio show, when the cryptocurrency closed at $549.26 per coin.
Eleven years later, Bitcoin set a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45557202/nvidia-founder-jensen-huang-surpassed-by-satoshi-nakamoto-in-personal-wealth-as-bitcoin-tops-111000">fresh record</a> above $111,000 on Thursday, May 22, 2025, after U.S. regulatory gains and heavy exchange-traded-fund inflows lifted demand.
What Happened: Bitcoin's overnight break of the psychologically important <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45556607/bitcoin-clocks-110000-ethereum-dogecoin-extend-gains-experienced-trader-peter-brandt-speculates-btc-to-enter-this-range-by-august-end">$110,000 level</a> pushed the token to as high as $111,861 before noon in New York, eclipsing the $109,241 mark set on Donald Trump's inauguration day.
Real-time data show 24-hour trading volume swelling more than 75 percent to roughly $92 billion, signaling surging speculative interest. The milestone was a catalyst that vaulted pseudonymous Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto past Nvidia (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) chief Jensen Huang on the Bloomberg billionaire index.

The Math: A listener ignoring Ramsey's warning and plowing $1,000 into Bitcoin at the Feb. 28, 2014, close would have bought 1.82 BTC.
At today's intraday high of $111,000, that stake is worth about $202,000 — a 20,100% gain and a 202-fold return on capital.
For the sake of comparison, the price of Gold Futures on Feb. 28, 2014, according to Yahoo Finance data, was $1,331.60 per ounce. Fast-forward to May 22, and Gold Futures are valued at $3,329.10 at the time of writing. That amounts to an increase of 150% over time.
Price Action: At the time of writing, BTC was exchanging hands at $110,664.40. up 0.97% in the last 24 hours, <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">according to data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

The State Department&#8217;s Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration will assume leadership of U.S. overseas disaster response operations from the dismantled U.S. Agency for International Development, raising concerns among disaster relief experts about the office&#8217;s preparedness for managing international humanitarian crises.
What Happened: The Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration (PRM) is taking over foreign disaster response duties from USAID&#8217;s Bureau of Humanitarian Assistance, according to excerpts from an internal State Department cable, Reuters <a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/us/state-department-refugee-office-assume-usaids-disaster-aid-role-says-cable-2025-05-22/">reported</a>. The cable, sent to diplomatic posts worldwide this week, authorizes up to $100,000 for initial disaster responses with PRM approval.
Only 20 experts from USAID&#8217;s original 525-person disaster response team are being transferred to PRM, according to a source familiar with the matter. Jeremy Konyndyk, former director of the Office of U.S. Foreign Disaster Relief and current president of Refugees International, called the arrangement &#8220;ridiculous,&#8221; stating that &#8220;PRM is not an operational entity&#8221; and lacks disaster response capabilities.
The transition follows USAID&#8217;s dismantlement, overseen by Elon Musk as part of President Trump&#8217;s government reduction initiative. Most of USAID&#8217;s 10,000 staff have been placed on administrative leave, facing termination, with thousands of contractors already fired and billions in humanitarian programs canceled.

Why It Matters: The restructuring threatens America&#8217;s disaster response capabilities as the Caribbean hurricane season approaches. Konyndyk warned the U.S. can no longer mobilize its world-leading Disaster Assistance Response Teams (DARTs), stating the PRM cannot replicate these specialized units&#8217; operational mechanics.
The policy shift extends beyond international disasters. The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44972378/trump-administration-denies-federal-disaster-aid-to-tornado-stricken-arkansas-pushing-responsibility-to-states">Trump administration denied federal disaster aid to tornado-stricken Arkansas</a> in April, pushing responsibility to states following executive orders redirecting disaster recovery from federal to local authorities. Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders appealed the denial, warning of &#8220;significant challenges&#8221; without federal assistance.
Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) co-founder Bill Gates challenged the USAID dismantlement, questioning whether <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43617113/bill-gates-challenges-elon-musk-led-doge-approach-to-shutting-down-usaid-asks-if-it-fits-american-value-system?utm_source=chatgpt.com">shuttering the agency aligns with American values</a> given its role in keeping &#8220;tens of millions of Africans alive&#8221; with just &#8220;half a percent of the budget.&#8221; Secretary of State Marco Rubio, now USAID&#8217;s acting director, defended restructuring efforts, claiming the agency had evolved beyond U.S. national interests.
The administration&#8217;s broader disaster policy changes include plans to abolish FEMA, the agency responsible for billions in annual disaster management assistance, fundamentally altering America&#8217;s humanitarian response infrastructure.

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. faces mounting pressure from Republican lawmakers and farming communities as his highly anticipated &#8220;Make America Healthy Again&#8221; report approaches Thursday&#8217;s release, with glyphosate pesticide regulations emerging as the primary flashpoint between public health advocates and agricultural interests.
What Happened: The MAHA Commission report, mandated by President Donald Trump within 100 days to analyze childhood disease factors, has sparked preemptive opposition from 79 Republican lawmakers representing farming states, <a href="https://apnews.com/article/rfk-jr-kennedy-farmers-maha-trump-pesticides-5d5a83bde6b88290cf9c3536e74523be">according</a> to AP. Iowa Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley warned Wednesday that farmers have expressed concerns about being excluded from the report&#8217;s input process.
Kennedy addressed Senate Appropriations Committee concerns from Mississippi Republican Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith, stating &#8220;there&#8217;s not a single word in them that should worry the American farmer&#8221; and promising not to &#8220;jeopardize that business model.&#8221; The commission, established by Trump&#8217;s February executive order, was tasked with examining prescription drugs, chemicals, and food ingredients affecting children.
The report comes alongside a proposed $500 million budget boost for Kennedy&#8217;s MAHA initiative, while simultaneously cutting infectious disease prevention, maternal health, and medical research programs. Kennedy supporters, including 360 MAHA advocates and former campaign staffers, have submitted pesticide studies pressing for chemical industry accountability.
