Trump Names Musk and Ramaswamy to Lead 'DOGE' Department to Slash Government Waste
Nov 13, 2024, 01:08 AM
President-elect Donald Trump has announced that Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, and entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy will lead a new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). The department aims to reduce federal waste, cut spending, eliminate regulations, and restructure federal agencies. Trump described this initiative as potentially "the Manhattan Project of our time," stating that "this will send shockwaves through the system, and anyone involved in government waste, which is a lot of people." The appointment fulfills Trump's campaign pledge to give Musk sweeping oversight of government spending and streamline government operations. Musk and Ramaswamy are expected to collaborate closely with the Office of Management and Budget to achieve these goals.
