The newly elected U.S. President, Donald Trump, appointed Tesla CEO Elon Musk and Strive Enterprises co-founder Vivek Ramaswamy to lead the Department of Government Efficiency. The department aims to reduce bureaucracy, eliminate unnecessary regulations, and streamline federal agencies. Trump stated that these actions would kickstart significant reforms.
Elon Musk, who had previously supported Trump’s re-election campaign, further solidified his backing by naming the department DOGE, after the popular cryptocurrency. As a supporter of Dogecoin, Musk chose this name because it aligns with the symbol of the coin. Following this move, the price of Dogecoin surged by 136%, reaching $0.406.
Following Trump’s announcement, Vivek Ramaswamy stated on the X platform, “We will not go gently in the transformation of the government.” Elon Musk also posted, “Not a threat to democracy, a threat to bureaucracy!”
Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren criticized these appointments, finding it inefficient to have two people leading the department. She sarcastically remarked, “The Department of Government Efficiency entrusted to two people? This seems efficient!” Warren had recently won her Senate seat against John Deaton.
