Great plan.

Vivek can be the spokesman with the media to detail the bloated government.

Elon can use X to do the same.

The bureaucrats will not know what hit them as they are FIRED!!!!!!

Trump is the executive branch. He really doesn’t need legislation for any of these departments. The executive has broad powers. Everyone can be a czar if he wants.

Remember how they function though. They do everything behind closed doors or in the middle of the night …they pass huge spending bills while American sleep. Prepare for Thune to be the next Senate majority leader. You see those corrupt POS greedy power hungry bastards don’t care what the American people say. Their terms are unlimited they keep getting reelected over and over again. How do you think McConnell has made a profession of being the Senate leader for all these years. They’re slimy, they’re evil, and they’re corrupt they don’t care what the American people think. The only thing we can do is come next election when some of those senators are up for reelection we need to fight them tooth and nail! We will never forget the backstabbing vote they’re about to take in the middle of the night or tomorrow! They are Fked if they vote against the peoples choice! Scott needs to be the majority leader. And we will find out how they voted. Cruz better not stab his constituents in the back or he’s done!

Can the headline title be changed from Vivik to Vivek?

You can’t form a department without legislation for example the Commerce department. Legislative formed departments have the force of law behind it. If this is to be a commission, a task force, etc. then say that. Implying it’s something else or more will hurt the “politics” to make its “findings\recommendations” happen. Hopefully it will be something that will have more “bite” than the Grace Commission did from the Reagan era. Its report was full of good ideas, but the “politics” weren’t martialed fully to implement many of them.

Nothing stops the executive from giving a directive and attaching a name to that directive. I don’t see the problem that you see. Trump is just doing things differently. Others do it another way because that was they guidance they got. An entrepreneur is going to be running the executive

Musk has dreamed of being in charge of something called DOGE.
------------
Yeah, I am thinking the acronym/name is an “inside joke” by PDJT and Elon... “DOGE” is up big time in the last week (along with Bitcoin):

Government and business are not equivalent. They perform different functions. The only thing a CEO and the USG chief executive (US president)) actually have in common is the word “executive”. I think thinking they’re the same stymied Trump in his first term.

Okay, this is a fantastic idea. BUT...what kind of powers will it have?

Will it just be Elon and Vivek making recommendations, or will they have actual POWER to cut and fire?

” Tell me EXACTLY what you do. Justify your position. If you can’t, you’re DONE.”

Any attempt to bribe or threaten, immediate dosmissal.

(On a side note: since this is going to put both men at the top of bureaucrat’s crap lists- right under Trump himself- both men should consider more personal protection. I would NOT recommend Secret Service, unless that agency is completely gutted and all higher-ups replaced.)

Two people share one chair? Now that’s efficient!

Wait until Musk fully understands that Government department heads hire nincompoops who then hire contractors to do the actual work.

I really like President Trump's choices right now. I may not agree with one or two here or there, on balance though, he's preparing to hit the ground running and making the most of the first year.

When I heard his announcement today that he was going to ELIMINATE the Department of Education, I let out a loud HELL YEAH! at the office today.

I had my headphones on and couldn't restrain myself. Coworkers looked at me like "WTF, dude?"

LOL! I don't care. I was glad!

Nothing says government efficient quite like having two bosses.

WOW!! Girl you said it and then some!! You nailed it....I haven’t voted for Cornrow for years but Cruz made me so mad at the 2016 RNC Convention and I voted that year for the Demonrat. Guess I knew in the back of my mind that he would win anyway but he wouldn’t get my vote to do it......just call me petty because that’s how I roll.......LOL
