  • The tycoons in charge of President-elect Donald J. Trump's amorphous government efficiency initiative made the rounds on Capitol Hill, bashing debt but revealing little about how they will tackle it.

The article from The New York Times discusses a unique political event where Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, a Republican presidential candidate, engaged in a conversation about Dogecoin during a congressional hearing. Ramaswamy, known for his unconventional campaign tactics, brought up Dogecoin, a cryptocurrency that started as a meme, to illustrate his points on innovation and regulatory overreach in the financial sector. Musk, who has a history of influencing Dogecoin's market through his social media posts, was present to testify on various issues but found himself discussing the potential of cryptocurrencies like Dogecoin.
