Elon Musk to Lead 'Government Efficiency' Effort with Office Near White House

The billionaire has been granted space in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building as part of his role in the informal Department of Government Efficiency under Donald Trump's administration.

Elon Musk has been assigned an office in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, adjacent to the White House, as part of his role in the informal Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
The Department of Government Efficiency, co-led by Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, aims to cut $2 trillion in federal spending, including targeting diversity, equity, and inclusion policies.
Musk's exact level of access to the West Wing remains undecided, with discussions ongoing about whether he will be designated as a 'special government employee,' which would affect his disclosure and conflict-of-interest requirements.
Musk's close relationship with Donald Trump has drawn attention, with reports of frequent meetings, large campaign donations, and his presence at Mar-a-Lago during the transition period.
The informal nature of DOGE and Musk's extensive government and military contracts have raised concerns about potential conflicts of interest and transparency in his new role.
