🇺🇸❗️Elon Musk has announced the end of his work as a special government employee in the administration of US President Donald Trump. The billionaire reported this on his social platform X.

"My term as a special government employee is coming to an end. Thank you President for the opportunity to fight wasteful spending," Musk wrote.

He added that the mission of the Department of Government Effectiveness (DOGE) “will only get stronger.” An anonymous White House official confirmed the billionaire’s departure from government service to the Associated Press.

The move comes a day after he criticized Trump's signature bill, which the US president calls the "Big Beautiful Bill." In an interview with CBS, Elon Musk called the initiative a "massive spending bill" that would increase the budget deficit and "undermine" DOGE.
