Is Musk leaving DOGE? — 16 Comments

  1. The headline reads Is Trump Leaving DOGE? but it’s Musk who appears to be leaving DOGE next month.

  2. MSM can say whatever they want. They’re not in control of narratives any more, and their audience is increasingly progressives and elderly.

  3. That’s a shame if he is leaving, I would imagine years uncovering a decade of fraud payments out to the government minions.

  4. I would think that the department continues and that the other people will stay to continue the work. Perhaps there can be a rotating “leader” to help with talking about the results.

    I wonder if Musk can come back after a while?

  5. Marisa:

    Yes, I noticed that and fixed it.

    It’s funny but the names “Musk” and “Trump” share the letters “m” and “u,” and they’re both very short names.

  6. …and their audience is increasingly progressives and elderly.

    This seems right, and yet whatever they say seems to be the headline we’re all talking about the next day. I wish I understood better how they keep pulling that off.

  7. its a captive audience to some degree, hillary’s emails were full of politico links, and we see how it became institutionalized in governmental circles,

  8. Musk has set up the department and a process and installed some very competent people. His leaving at the end of May, if that’s the date, will not stop the process.

  9. Good point Kate. It is possible that Musk has become a distraction inhibiting the ultimate goal – maybe. Do you know who I trust to make that call? Donald J Trump. Dear lord I never would have said something like that ten years ago.

  10. I had read that as a “special employee” or some such thing, Musk is limited to 130 days. So that would take him through roughly through the end of May. I would presume he has better ways to spend his time, and will have by then put all the pieces in place so that he can comfortably move on.

  11. Politico: Musk “will be stepping back in the coming weeks from his current role.”
    The end of May is ~8 weeks away, which could be construed as “in the coming weeks.”
    A nothingburger. And Trump clearly stated the time frame when he appointed Musk.
