Trump Loyalist Russel Vought Takes Over DOGE, Vought To Lead Mass Layoffs With ‘Slash & Burn’ Agenda

Elon Musk has stepped down from leading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), handing the reins to conservative policy strategist Russell Vought. A key Trump ally, Vought is best known for shaping Project 2025 and pushing aggressive spending cuts and federal downsizing. He aims to revive Trump’s Schedule F and slash budgets at agencies like USAID and NPR. Musk, who reportedly wants to focus on Tesla and SpaceX, had worked closely with Vought during DOGE’s early days. Critics warn Vought's Christian nationalist leanings and military spending cuts may spark major backlash. #ElonMusk #RussellVought #DOGE #Trump #GovernmentEfficiency #Project2025 #ScheduleF #FederalCuts #ChristianNationalism #Tesla #SpaceX #MuskExit #VoughtAgenda #BudgetCuts #NPR #USAID #CFPB #MilitarySpending #GOP #PoliticalNews #WashingtonWatch #BureaucracyReform #TrumpAdmin #GovernmentOverhaul #WhiteHousePolicy #SpendingCuts #PolicyShift #BreakingNews #ConservativeAgenda #MuskVsVought Also Read Elon Musk Exits Trump Administration After Slamming ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ on His Way Out :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/elon-musk-exits-trump-administration-after-slamming-big-beautiful-bill-on-his-way-out-4166709.html?ref=DMDesc Elon Musk Criticises Trump's 'Big Beautiful Bill', A Fracture In Key Relationship :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/elon-musk-criticises-trumps-big-beautiful-bill-a-fracture-in-key-relationship-4166667.html?ref=DMDesc SpaceX Starship Explodes Mid-Flight During Third Test, Firm Cites 'Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/spacex-starship-explodes-mid-flight-during-third-test-firm-cites-rapid-unscheduled-disassembly-4165683.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~GR.124~

Santa Monica Mall Shooting Rampage: Teens Injured, Cop Ambushed — Suspect Arrested After Wild Chase! [Video]

Santa Monica Mall Shooting Rampage: Teens Injured, Cop Ambushed — Suspect Arrested After Wild Chase!

A quiet afternoon in Santa Monica turned into chaos as gunshots rang out at a popular shopping mall. A suspect—linked to a previous shooting involving a Waymo autonomous vehicle—allegedly shot two teenagers before ambushing a police officer during a foot chase. The officer, though seriously injured, is expected to recover. Authorities launched a citywide manhunt that ended with the suspect's arrest near Palisades Park just three hours later. Santa Monica Police Chief Ramon Batista said the evidence strongly links the man to both shootings. The suspect, described as being in his 30s, was considered armed and dangerous. The 3rd Street Promenade was evacuated, and the public was urged to avoid the area during the tense search. Mayor Lana Negrete praised the swift response of law enforcement and confirmed that the streets are now safe. Watch the full report for exclusive details, visuals, and police updates. #SantaMonicaShooting #BreakingNews #PoliceChase #MallShooting #CaliforniaCrime #SantaMonicaNews #WaymoShooter #GunViolence #TeenShot #OfficerShot #CrimeAlert #LiveUpdate #SuspectArrested #3rdStreetPromenade #PublicSafety Also Read School Shooting In Austria's Graz City Kills 10 :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/school-shooting-in-austrias-graz-city-kills-10-4177321.html?ref=DMDesc Toronto: 1 Dead, 5 Injured In Lawrence Heights Shooting :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/toronto-1-dead-5-injured-in-lawrence-heights-shooting-4171745.html?ref=DMDesc Indian Student Harsimrat Randhawa Shot Dead By Stray Bullet In Hamilton In Canada :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/indian-student-harsimrat-randhawa-shot-dead-by-stray-bullet-in-canada-4128029.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~PR.274~ED.346~GR.122~
