Trump names Musk, Ramaswamy to lead newly formed Department of Government Efficiency

US President-elect Donald Trump said on Tuesday Elon Musk and former Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy will lead the newly created Department of Government Efficiency.

Musk and Ramaswamy "will pave the way for my Administration to dismantle Government Bureaucracy, slash excess regulations, cut wasteful expenditures, and restructure Federal Agencies," Trump said in a statement.

Musk gave millions of dollars to support Trump's presidential campaign and made public appearances with him. Trump had said he would offer Musk, the world's richest person, a role in his administration promoting government efficiency.

The acronym of the new department - DOGE - coincides with the name of the cryptocurrency Dogecoin that Musk promotes.

Trump names Musk, Ramaswamy to lead newly formed Department of Government Efficiency

Trump said their work would conclude by July 4, 2026, adding that a smaller government would be a "gift" to the country on the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence.

I am cautiously optimistic. Both men are innovators and know how to ferret out fat.

It keeps me prayerful because I believe we are near the end of Nebuchadnezzar's statue dream, the time of the toes. A few months ago I happened to catch a podcast where a historian was describing aspects to Greek/Roman governments and he mentioned Doge. Here's the definition: the most important government official in an Italian city-state.

The historian, Victor Davis Hanson, races through history tying threads of how various governments rise and fall. There's the fall of the Roman Emp. around 1000 AD, the end of the feudal system around 1400 AD and that gives way to the Italian Renaissance. The feudal system had two types of people, wealthy land owners and their slaves (serfs). When it broke up the serfs began to innovate, develop goods to trade in markets, lots of self sustaining villages and eventually a new class of landowners (basic middle class). That's when there were new positions opened, like the Doge.

If the Trump Administration enjoys success in saving the US financially and saves us from our evil entrenched bureaucratic killing machines (killing innovation, the middle class, and even people); it may be that we are strong iron in the toes of iron and clay. Creepy thought of mine

You may have something there.
America is an offshoot of Britain which was under the Roman Empire.
If America is one of the Young Lions of Tarshish mentioned in Ezekiel 38 then there's a probability that America though not mentioned by the name America in Bible prophecy, could take a role in End Times Prophecy under The Revived Roman Empire.
Thought provoking indeed

I agree with you, for me it is creepy as well.

Btw, Doge in Italian, means Duke in English, the highest nobleman under the King.
So, very interesting name for a department.

Doge is also related to Elon Musks Doge bitcoin.
Is Trump's new administration trying to oust the FED and replace it with bitcoins?

The thoughts are running rampant in my mind.
2025 will be extra-ordinary, to say the least.
Hopefully we'll be watching it unfold from the balcony.
