President Trump today offered praise in the performance of Elon Musk and his team’s so -called department government, who has led the administration’s efforts to clear federal workers. He said he had instructed him to look for the government to eliminate the entire expenses. He specifically mentioned that Kasturi would check the costs in the Pentagon, where Musk has received at least $ 3.6 billion in the past decade.
The President also prepared the Education Department, which the White House has discussed likely to be closed. Trump’s critics argue that efforts violate the constitution, which gives Congress the authority to order federal spending.
But in the last week alone, Musk and his team have also landed in the departments of education, housing and urban development, health and human services, and veterinarians. The Treasury department replaced a carrier’s government employee and installed a Musk ally to oversee the country’s payment system.
Musk’s efforts are largely being made by a group of male engineers, some of the recent college graduates and at least a young man are 19 years old. Some have a former entrance to his companies. There are other executives who have worked for musk for two decades. It seems that all of them have changed their shoots first, AIM liter view. What do we know about the team of Musk’s young assistants?
Judge, Carl Nicholas, who is a Trump appointment, said 2,200 employees will be briefly delayed in the administrative holiday when they heard the voice of a legal challenge filed by unions representing workers. – The unions have called the agency to end Trump’s efforts to eliminate “unconstitutional and illegal”, saying that they have created a “global humanitarian crisis.”
Earlier today, the President issued a two -cap, all -caps guidance to dissolve the USAID “Stop it!” Trump posted on his social media network. He also accused the agency of illegal corruption and fraud.
In the second news of politics:
