US President Donald Trump has suggested that Elon Musk’s team reviewing government payments at the US Treasury Department has found irregularities. The comments come amid scrutiny of Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s involvement with the DOGE cryptocurrency, which is linked to a US government-backed digital dollar project. Trump said there “could be a problem” with Treasuries, implying that the Treasury’s data may indicate some payments should be disregarded. However, it remains unclear what specific issue Trump is referring to or whether he is discussing US government debt or payments processed through the Treasury Department.
