President Donald Trump’s spending proposal is great news for Elon Musk—while slashing spending nearly everyone else.

Elon Musk might soon be leaving Washington, but he says DOGE needs to be a long-term project. Musk insisted in a TV interview that the project to slash government spending and eliminate entire agencies ought to endure amid signs that he may soon step away from the effort and return to his struggling electric car company.

As President Donald Trump celebrated his 100th day in office this week, Elon Musk's DOGE said it has cut at least $160 billion in waste, fraud and abuse in the federal government.

Elon Musk suggested his cost-cutting government project DOGE should take a closer look at the Fed’s spending, especially the $2.5 billion it has spent to remodel its Washington D.C. headquarters. Musk’s comments come as he is set to “significantly” cut back his time at DOGE in part to focus on his EV company Tesla.
