Elon Musk’s authority within the US government has been questioned for the first time by President Donald Trump.
This article appears to be satire. It claims that Elon Musk is leading a government department called “DOGE” (a reference to the meme cryptocurrency) and is cutting federal jobs to reduce government spending. It describes Trump instructing Cabinet members to identify job cuts before Musk steps in, while also setting limits on Musk’s authority. The piece humorously highlights Musk’s casual attire at official meetings and his frequent presence at the White House.
