President-elect Donald Trump has announced that billionaire Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, former GOP presidential candidate, will lead the new Department of Government Efficiency.
Trump stated that the pair will work together to dismantle Government Bureaucracy, slash excess regulations, cut wasteful expenditures, and restructure Federal Agencies.
“It will become, potentially, ‘The Manhattan Project’ of our time,” the announcement on Tuesday evening said. “Republican politicians have dreamed about the objectives of ‘DOGE’ for a very long time.”
Trump also said that Musk and Ramaswamy 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.”
According to him, the agency will be focused on creating a more efficient U.S. government that looks to make 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’”, Trump added.
