Trump appoints Elon Musk as Head of ‘DOGE’, new US Govt department

President-elect Donald Trump has officially appointed fellow billionaire, Elon Musk as head of a new US Department of Government Efficiency (“DOGE”) under his administration.

This was contained in a statement posted on Trump’s social media network Truth Social on Tuesday.

The president-elect revealed that “the Great Elon Musk” would work with pharmaceutical and financial millionaire Vivek Ramaswamy to lead the new department.

DOGE will partner with and advise the White House’s preexisting Office of Management and Budget to “drive large scale structural reform, and create an entrepreneurial approach to Government

According to Trump, DOGE’s purpose is to “pave the way for [his] Administration to dismantle Government Bureaucracy, slash excess regulations, cut wasteful expenditures, and restructure Federal Agencies — Essential to the ‘Save America’ Movement.’

“DOGE will aim to complete its work by July 4, 2026, resulting in “A smaller Government, with more efficiency and less bureaucracy.”

“This will send shockwaves through the system, and anyone involved in Government waste, which is a lot of people!” Musk claimed in Trump’s statement, which he also shared via his X account.

As such, the U.S. may soon see sweeping mass layoffs impacting thousands of government workers.

Ramaswamy previously promised “large scale mass layoffs” during his own presidential campaign in 2023, stating that he would cut 75 percent of civilian federal workers — 50 percent within the first year.

His proposed plan would begin by eliminating the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI); the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives; the Nuclear Regulatory Commission; the Department of Education; and the Department of Agriculture’s Food and Nutrition Service.

“I will fire 1 million federal employees in 2025,” Ramaswamy posted on X in December last year. “SHUT IT DOWN.”

There are approximately 2.25 million civilian federal employees in the U.S. If Ramaswamy, Musk, and Trump execute their vision, around 1.7 million Americans could be out of a jo
