\nCurrie denied the defendants\u2019 request to bar the Justice Department from seeking to indict them again under a lawfully appointed prosecutor. In Comey\u2019s case, however, she suggested their time to do so hasrun out.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

But there\u2019s also a report that it is still going, sorta kinda.\u00a0 According to The Guardian<\/a>, office of personnel management (OPM) director, Scott Kupor told Reuters that DOGE no longer exists.
