Elon Musk wore a black T-shirt with the words “tech support” during his speech to business leaders in Dubai, highlighting his efforts to improve government efficiency. The move comes after he previously referred to himself as “White House Tech Support” on his X bio.
Musk, who leads DOGE, an organization involved in President Donald Trump’s push to cut federal spending, emphasized the need to eliminate entire federal agencies. He likened it to removing weeds, saying that if the roots are not eliminated, they will grow back.
The US deficit is expected to drop from $2 trillion to $1 trillion under Musk’s plan, resulting in significant interest rate reductions and lower debt for Americans. Musk compared the US government to a large corporation, stating that reducing spending would be akin to a corporate turnaround on a much larger scale.
DOGE has raised concerns among lawmakers and watchdog organizations due to its access to Treasury systems containing sensitive information about millions of Americans. Despite these concerns, Musk showed no signs of slowing down his plans, highlighting the potential benefits of reduced government spending.
