In a Cabinet meeting, President Trump asserted that government agency heads should control personnel decisions instead of Elon Musk and his controversial Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). This shift comes in light of significant layoffs attributed to DOGE's actions, which many find illegal and unconstitutional. While Trump has previously been supportive of Musk, he now suggests a firmer stance while maintaining ambiguous support for the CEO. The news has sparked dissent among both Democrats and some Republicans, emphasizing the importance of agency heads being attuned to program needs.
If [Cabinet members] can cut, it's better. And if they don't cut, then Elon will do the cutting.
They are going to be better attuned to the individual programs.
Musk has spent the last two months plundering the government with the help of his henchmen at the so-called Department of Government Efficiency.
The cuts, seen by many as outright illegal and unconstitutional, have ruffled countless feathers, particularly among Democratic lawmakers.
