Elon Musk stated he would not repeat his experience leading Donald Trump's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), reflecting on his "somewhat successful" tenure and its negative impact.Musk noted DOGE halted significant wasteful funding, including over $200 billion in "zombie payments," but failed to achieve its primary goals of substantial budget and regulation reductions.His involvement also led to boycotts and damages against his companies, Tesla and SpaceX, while House Democrats introduced legislation targeting "special government employees" (SGEs) involved in government roles.
