Unfinished Business: The budget cuts Musk couldn’t complete and what’s next for DOGE
Friday, 30 May 2025 () Under Elon Musk, DOGE saved taxpayers $175 billion. But lawsuits and lack of congressional buy-in have limited its impact on making major cuts to government waste.

U.S. Senator Cory Booker is facing backlash after making an extended-arm gesture during his speech at the California Democratic Convention — a move many online are comparing to a Nazi salute. The moment instantly drew parallels to Elon Musk’s controversial gesture earlier this year, which sparked similar outrage. Musk has now responded to Booker’s gesture, reigniting debate over symbolism, double standards, and political optics. Is it a misunderstood expression — or something more serious?

Elon Musk has stepped down from Donald Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (Doge), sparking intense speculation over who will succeed him. The frontrunner appears to be Indian-origin entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, who was initially appointed to co-run Doge before exiting to pursue gubernatorial ambitions. Other contenders include Amy Gleason, Tom Krause, and even a 23-year-old former intern. As Doge reels from Musk’s controversial reforms and job cuts, Trump remains tight-lipped, while questions swirl about the agency’s future and who will lead its radical mission next.

The New York Times has accused tech mogul Elon Musk of serious drug addiction, citing sources close to him. Musk, a close ally of President Donald Trump and former head of the DOGE task force, allegedly uses ketamine frequently and mixes it with ecstasy, psychedelics, and other medications. The report adds he carries a daily pill box with Adderall and was forewarned about SpaceX drug tests. Musk denied the claims, calling the Times untrustworthy, while affirming he will still advise Trump despite stepping down from his government role.

Elon Musk has officially stepped down as head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) but vowed to continue advising U.S. President Donald Trump. Musk, wearing a “Dogefather” T-shirt, promised the project will thrive beyond his tenure and reduce a trillion dollars in government waste. He will now refocus on Tesla, SpaceX, and X but remains Trump’s “friend and adviser.” Trump praised Musk’s historic reform work and said he’s “really not leaving.” Despite scaling back political donations, Musk hinted DOGE is just beginning—calling it “a way of life, like Buddhism.”
