Trump appoints Elon Musk to lead US government efficiency department

The Department of Government Efficiency, described as the administration’s “Manhattan Project,” is envisioned to implement large-scale structural reforms within the government.

According to the statement, DOGE will aim to reduce redundant regulations, curb unnecessary expenditures, and drive a more entrepreneurial approach within federal operations.

Trump expressed confidence in the newly appointed leaders, highlighting their goal to reduce the annual $6.5 trillion in federal spending.

Musk and Ramaswamy’s work is expected to conclude by July 4, 2026, coinciding with the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. Trump described this effort as a “perfect gift to America,” emphasising his commitment to a more efficient and accountable government.

Both Musk and Ramaswamy have expressed enthusiasm for the project, with Musk promising that their reforms will “send shockwaves through the system.” The administration believes these changes will make government operations more efficient and ultimately benefit American citizens.

The statement reads, “I am pleased to announce that the Great Elon Musk, working in conjunction with American Patriot Vivek Ramaswamy, will lead the Department of Government Efficiency (“DOGE”). Together, these two wonderful Americans will pave the way for my Administration to dismantle Government Bureaucracy, slash excess regulations, cut wasteful expenditures, and restructure Federal Agencies – Essential to the “Save America” Movement. “This will send shockwaves through the system, and anyone involved in Government waste, which is a lot of people!” stated Mr. Musk.

“It will become, potentially, “The Manhattan Project” of our time. Republican politicians have dreamed about the objectives of “DOGE” for a very long time.

“To drive this kind of drastic change, 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.

I look forward to Elon and Vivek making changes to the Federal Bureaucracy with an eye on efficiency and, at the same time, making life better for all Americans.

“Importantly, we will drive out the massive waste and fraud which exists throughout our annual $6.5 Trillion Dollars of Government Spending.
