Limited time for Musk, DOGE?
Musk led the Ministry of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which plays a leading role in reducing and reworking the federal government. Trump said the work would continue with various agencies.
Some recent news reports suggest that Musk may soon leave Trump’s side, although it was not clear whether Musk would leave before his 130 -day mandate, because a special government employee would expire around the end of May.
Trump’s comments have come after a permanent drumbeat designs in the last week that Muska’s time was limited.
While the White House did not publish any timeline for closing DOGE and the organization of government costs has never been to become a permanent accessory in Washington. However, this could be achieved faster than expected. Doga was originally supposed to operate until 4 July 2026.
Now there are indications that they are already liquidating. DOGE employees have been moved to various federal agencies to take over the cost of reducing. The whole government is being released to achieve some goals set by Muskem and Trump.

“We think we will probably be satisfied with people who work hard and want to be members of the administration,” Trump said last week.
DOGE Purpose is fulfilled?
The potential end of Doge does not mean that Trump will stop shaking with Washington. However, it seems that the efforts of the administration will enter a new phase, which is less focused on Musk, whose work with the chain manages as a presidential advisor has made him a political flash.
DOGE was originally introduced as an independent advisory panel, while Musk shared the lead with Vivek Ramaswama, a biotechnology entrepreneur.
Ramaswamy fell out and runs behind the Governor of Ohia and Doga became part of the government. It was supplied with Musk’s allies who were sent throughout the bureaucracy to cancel contracts, access sensitive data and promote cuts.
“I think we have achieved most of the work needed to reduce the deficit of trillion dollars in this time frame,” said Musk Bret Baier of Fox News on March 27. Doge is still in this goal, according to their own calculations, which have been criticized as inflated and inaccurate.
Musk has not followed the administration of any specific date, and it is not clear how the administration follows Muska’s time.
Trump told reporters on Monday in an oval office that “I hold him until I could keep him” and “he’s a very talented person.”

The Republican President was known for explosive break -ups with the best advisors during his first term, but anyone who hoped for such a division with Musk was disappointed.
“I want Elon to stay as long as possible,” Trump said on Thursday. “Number one, I like him, number two, doing a great job. Number three, it’s a patriot, that’s why it does.”
What happens after Muska’s departure
As soon as Musk leaves, Trump said, “Secretary will be completely taken over”, which means the leaders confirmed by the Senate of various agencies, but “Doga will remain active”
It was somewhat different news than Trump on Monday. At this point, he said that the Cabinet officials were working closely with Musk and can keep some of the Duge people in their agencies.
“But at some point I think it will end,” Trump said.
