Elon Musk's White House stint begins, he now has an office, official email address
Hindustan TimesBillionaire Elon Musk has already secured a White House email address and office space, clearing the way for him to launch the cost-cutting effort he’s called the Department of Government Efficiency. Billionaire Elon Musk has already obtained an office space and a White House email address, paving the stage for him to start the Department of Government Efficiency, a cost-cutting initiative. Trump said Musk is getting an office “for about 20 people we’re hiring to make sure these get implemented.” The order also set up DOGE teams of at least four people at each federal agency to implement the program. The order said the mission would make the government more efficient “by modernizing Federal technology and software to maximize governmental efficiency and productivity.” There’s no explicit mention of budget-cutting or deregulation, two areas that Trump highlighted when he first put Musk in charge of it after the election.
