President-elect Donald Trump has named Elon Musk as the leader of a new “Department of Government Efficiency,” that will “dismantle Government Bureaucracy, slash excess regulations, cut wasteful expenditures, and restructure Federal Agencies.” The Tesla CEO and owner of X will spearhead the effort along with former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, Trump in a statement on Truth Social.
The scope of the role isn’t exactly clear. Trump’s press release said that “the Department of Government Efficiency will provide advice and guidance from outside of Government, and will partner with the White House and Office of Management & Budget to drive large scale structural reform, and create an entrepreneurial approach to Government never seen before.” It also stated that “their work will conclude no later than July 4, 2026.”
Musk shared the news on X, but didn’t indicate how the role might impact his obligations at his various other companies. Musk, who poured into Super Pac boosting Trump’s campaign, has previously about his desire to work with Trump to cut government spending. He did, however, joke about potential “merch” for the operation. “Republican politicians have dreamed about the objectives of ‘DOGE’ for a very long time,” Trump’s statement said.
