After overseeing massive federal workforce cuts and budget freezes, Musk’s tenure at DOGE nears its scheduled conclusion.

Elon Musk’s time at the helm of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is coming to an end, with the White House confirming that he will leave his role later this spring as originally planned.

The billionaire entrepreneur was appointed by President Donald Trump to lead the department, which was tasked with advising on government downsizing and budget reforms.

Since its inception, DOGE has overseen the removal of tens of thousands of government employees and the freezing of trillions of dollars in federal grant funding.

The initiative, framed as a cost-cutting measure to streamline bureaucracy, has drawn both praise and criticism.

Supporters argue that it has reduced wasteful spending, while opponents warn of the long-term consequences for public services and federal programs.

Speculation swirled earlier this week about Musk’s potential early exit, but White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt dismissed the reports as “garbage,” reaffirming that Musk’s work will conclude on schedule.

Musk himself responded to the rumors on social media, calling them “fake news.”

With Musk’s departure on the horizon, questions remain about the future of DOGE and whether its aggressive cuts will continue under new leadership.

Silicon Valley entrepreneur and U.S.-Vietnam relations advocate Allison Huynh joins Veronica Dudo to discuss.
