DOGE Deployment: Head of team at USAID, assigned to General Services Administration and Consumer Financial Protection Bureau

  • Lewin reportedly headed a three person DOGE team at USAID. The Handbasket confirmed that Lewin had access to both the General Services Administration and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
  • Lewin previously worked as a litigation associate for Munger, Tolles & Olson. In 2024, a Tesla shareholder hired the firm to challenge $5.1 billion in plaintiff’s fees in a suit against the company. The plaintiff’s original lawsuit attempted to void Tesla’s $56 billion compensation paid to Musk in 2018. Prior to Lewin’s time at the firm, Munger represented Tesla in efforts to take the company private.
  • Lewin’s now-deleted profile on Munger’s website claimed that Lewin’s op-eds had been cited by “dozens of Members of Congress, multiple cabinet secretaries and foreign heads of state.” Lewin also claimed to have confidentially advised the U.S. President, senior Congressional leaders, and Ukrainian President Zelenskyy.
