President-elect Donald Trump has appointed Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to lead the newly formed Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), aiming to identify and eliminate wasteful government spending. With Musk and Ramaswamy at the helm, the initiative seeks to cut hundreds of billions in waste and fraud, potentially saving up to $2 trillion without impacting essential services like Social Security and Medicare.
