  • The White House says billionaire Elon Musk is not the administrator of the Department of Government Efficiency team that is sweeping through federal agencies, but is rather a senior adviser to President Donald Trump.

The article from MSN discusses the White House's response to Elon Musk's involvement with former President Donald Trump. It highlights that the White House has clarified that Elon Musk, who has been in discussions with Trump, is considered an adviser to Trump rather than holding any official position like "Doge Administrator," a playful title referencing the Dogecoin cryptocurrency. The article notes that these interactions have raised concerns about the influence of tech moguls in politics, especially given Musk's significant sway in various industries. It also touches on Musk's past political donations and his potential impact on policy, particularly in areas like electric vehicles and space travel, where his companies, Tesla and SpaceX, have vested interests. However, the White House emphasizes that Musk's role is informal and advisory, not an official capacity within any administration.
