Elon Musk's involvement in the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) aimed at reducing federal spending considerably. He initially claimed the department would save $2 trillion, but later revised it to $1 trillion, which still proved to be unrealistic. The relationship between Musk and Trump soured, culminating in public disputes over spending legislation, while DOGE made significant cuts to various federal agencies, including health and international aid. Ultimately, Musk's ambitious goals were not realized, casting doubt on the efficiency and impact of his work with the department.
"Under Musk's oversight and with Trump's approval, DOGE axed billions of dollars in grants for state health departments and scientific research, showcasing aggressive spending cuts."
"Musk initially claimed the Department of Government Efficiency would save $2 trillion, but as his tenure waned, that figure was adjusted to $1 trillion, which remained unachieved."
