Trump, Musk Unveil Goal of Dept of Govt Efficiency, Call Federal Cuts ‘Essential’ in Oval Office

Joined by Elon Musk, President Trump signed an executive order to slash federal jobs and overhaul government agencies.

Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) will lead the effort, aiming to cut wasteful spending and reduce bureaucracy.

The order mandates a four-to-one hiring freeze and new conduct rules for federal hires.

With legal challenges from unions and federal judges intervening, Trump’s ambitious plan faces hurdles.

Critics call it a power grab, while supporters hail it as a long-overdue reform to rein in government excess.
