White House Denies Musk's Imminent Departure from DOGE Role

News summary

Recent reports suggested that Elon Musk might soon depart from his role as a special government employee at the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), prompting a strong denial from the White House. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt labeled the claims as 'garbage' and reiterated that Musk would remain until his work with DOGE is complete, which is expected to be around late May or early June 2025. Despite Musk's contributions, concerns about his unpredictability and political liabilities have surfaced among Trump insiders, particularly following a recent election setback for a conservative judge he supported. While Trump appears pleased with Musk's initiatives, sources indicate that a shift in their dynamic may be on the horizon as Musk is anticipated to return to private business and adopt a more advisory role. The overall sentiment remains that Musk will not completely sever ties with the Trump administration, as he has been a significant ally. The situation reflects the ongoing complexities of their relationship as both navigate their respective ambitions.
