The US departments of defense and education are next in line for budget reviews, President Donald Trump has confirmed
Elon Musk, as head of the new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), has been tasked with revising federal spending, and has set his sights on the Pentagon and the Department of Education, US President Donald Trump has confirmed. The newly authorized audits come in line with a broad push to slash public expenses.
Musk, CEO of SpaceX and Tesla and owner of X (formerly Twitter), has been appointed as a âspecial government employeeâ to lead the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) under Trumpâs administration, and is currently among the presidentâs key advisers. Despite its name, the agency is not a permanent federal executive department, but a temporary body dedicated to reducing government spending. Its primary goal is to cut up to $2 trillion in federal expenditures by July 2026.
Speaking at the press conference with Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba on Friday, Trump said that Musk will go through âjust about everythingâ while reviewing the budgets of the departments.
