President-elect Donald Trump's announcement that he has tapped Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to lead the so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) sparked speculation over what the body is, how it could manifest during his second term, and what kind of role Musk could play.
Trump on Tuesday described DOGE as an outside body that would work in tandem with the Office of Management and Budget and the White House to gut government bureaucracy and wasteful spending and shake up federal agencies.
