Trump's Chief of Staff Bars Musk From West Wing After $200M Contribution
Jan 25, 2025, 05:51 PM
Donald Trump's Chief of Staff, Susie Wiles, has taken steps to limit Elon Musk's access to the president, relocating Musk's office outside the West Wing and requiring all reports from the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which Musk chairs, to go through her first. This move underscores Wiles' authority within the administration and her commitment to maintaining discipline and control in Trump's second term. Musk, often referred to as Trump's 'First Buddy,' has faced criticism for his controversial public statements, which have made him a target for Democrats. Despite Musk's significant role in Trump's campaign, including a $200 million contribution, and his position as DOGE chairman, Wiles has barred him from securing a West Wing office, citing concerns over his influence and the potential for disruption. Musk's team now operates from the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, located across from the White House. Additionally, Musk has expressed doubts about Trump's $500 billion AI plan. This development highlights growing tensions within the administration, with Wiles, nicknamed the 'Ice Maiden' by Trump, asserting her role as a gatekeeper to the president.
