Elon Musk Can't Believe He's Heading The Bizarre Task Force He Made Up With Trump

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING Elon Musk says he “still can’t believe” that his “Department of Government Efficiency” that President-elect Donald Trump tapped him to lead earlier this month “is real.” The billionaire Tesla CEO was appointed by Trump to head the newly created department, also known as DOGE, in the politician’s second administration alongside biotech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy. In a post shared on his social media platform, X, formerly called Twitter, on Sunday, Musk wrote, “I still can’t believe @DOGE is real,” alongside multiple crying-laughing emojis. Trump has described DOGE as an effort to “slash excess regulations, cut wasteful expenditures, and restructure Federal Agencies” in a post on his social media platform, Truth Social. Ramaswamy echoed Greene’s promise to cut financial and bureaucratic waste while appearing on Fox News’ ”Sunday Morning Futures” last week.
