Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy have spelled out their plans for DOGE


They’re going to recommend massive federal cuts.

Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy were officially appointed the co-leads of President-elect Donald Trump’s “Department of Government Efficiency” (DOGE) last week, and on Wednesday, the two men spelled out their plans for the advisory group in a long article in The Wall Street Journal. Musk and Ramaswamy say they’ll hire “a lean team of small-government crusaders” to work with the Trump administration and the White House Office of Management and Budget. Their primary lever for change will be executive action leaning on two recent Supreme Court rulings — West Virginia v. Environmental Protection Agency and Loper Bright v. Raimondo(which overturned the Chevron doctrine) — which “suggest that a plethora of current federal regulations exceed the authority Congress has granted under the law.”
