President-elect Donald Trump has picked business leaders Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to lead what he calls the Department of Government Efficiency.
Musk, who owns the social media site X.com, and Ramaswamy have been two highly influential people associated with Trump’s third run for office. They will assist Trump in cutting bureaucracy, slashing unneeded regulation, and eliminating government waste.
“This will send shockwaves through the system, and anyone involved in Government waste, which is a lot of people,” Musk said.
“All actions of the Department of Government Efficiency will be posted online for maximum transparency. Anytime the public thinks we are cutting something important or not cutting something wasteful, just let us know! We will also have a leaderboard for most insanely dumb spending of your tax dollars. This will be both extremely tragic and extremely entertaining,” Musk wrote on X.
“It will become, potentially, ‘The Manhattan Project’ of our time. Republican politicians have dreamed about the objectives of ‘DOGE’ for a very long tie. To drive this kind of drastic change, the Department of Government Efficiency will provide advice and guidance fro outside of Government and will partner with the White House and Office of Management & Budget to drive large scale structural reform, and create and entrepreneurial approach to Government never seen before,” Trump said.
“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. They will work together to liberate our Economy, and make the U.S. Government accountable to ‘WE THE PEOPLE.’ Their work will conclude no later than July 4, 2026 – A smaller Government, with more efficiency and less bureaucracy, will be the perfect gift to America on the 250th Anniversary of The Declaration of Independence. I am confident they will succeed!” Trump said.
I have been a fan favorite of Vivek Ramaswamy as a smart intelligent individual. Fast on his feet, and has a mountain of facts at his fingertips. Just an overall appearing brillient soul. However, today I had occasion to view
a video of content that presents a view that is not normally viewed in the press or in interviews. Not that he is any bad person, but a deep dive of his workings is worth a watch and opinion. Cheers.
