US President-elect Donald Trump says Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk will lead a so-called Department of Government Efficiency alongside American entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy.
“Together, these two wonderful Americans will pave the way for my Administration to dismantle Government Bureaucracy, slash excess regulations, cut wasteful expenditures, and restructure Federal Agencies – Essential to the ‘Save America’ Movement,” Trump said in a statement.
Donald Trump named more of his incoming team, including seasoned figures and hard-liners, ahead of a meeting with President Joe Biden in what will be the Republican’s first White House visit since exiting amid scandal four years ago.
The 78-year-old, who decisively defeated Vice President Kamala Harris in last week’s election, makes a triumphant return to Washington Wednesday, meeting Biden in the Oval Office.

Anytime the public thinks we are cutting something important or not cutting something wasteful, just let us know!
We will also have a leaderboard for most insanely dumb… https://t.co/1c0bAlxmY0
