Trump says Elon Musk will lead ‘DOGE’ office to cut ‘wasteful’ government spending


Musk was a major supporter of Trump’s campaign.

Musk has floated cutting at least $2 trillion, which The Washington Post says would be “virtually impossible” unless he touches the defense budget or programs like Social Security. I am pleased to announce that the Great Elon Musk, working in conjunction with American Patriot Vivek Ramaswamy, will lead the Department of Government Efficiency (“DOGE”). Together, these two wonderful Americans will pave the way for my Administration to dismantle Government Bureaucracy, slash excess regulations, cut wasteful expenditures, and restructure Federal Agencies - Essential to the “Save America” Movement.
