Overview

• A Senate subcommittee report claims Musk and his companies faced $2.37 billion in potential liabilities from 65 federal actions, which he may have evaded through DOGE influence.
• The White House denies allegations of Musk using his role for personal or financial gain, calling the claims baseless and defamatory.
• DOGE asserts $160 billion in government savings through layoffs and budget cuts, though critics argue rehiring costs and lawsuits offset these figures.
• Public approval of Musk’s performance in the Trump administration has fallen to 35%, with a majority doubting DOGE's effectiveness in reducing waste or fraud.
• Musk announced plans to significantly reduce his involvement in DOGE starting next month to focus more on Tesla, which has seen a sharp decline in profits.
