Trump announced new major appointments in his future administration.
The Pentagon will be headed by Iraq and Afghanistan war veteran and Fox News host Pete Hegseth, and the CIA will be led by former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe.
Two billionaires who supported Trump, Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, also received posts. They will jointly lead the new US Department of Government Effectiveness (DOGE).
“Together, these two great Americans will pave the way for my administration to eliminate government bureaucracy, reduce excess regulation, reduce wasteful spending and restructure federal agencies, which are essential to the Save America movement,” Trump said in a statement.
Interestingly, the abbreviation of the new department - DOGE - is a reference to the name of the Dogecoin cryptocurrency, which is promoted by Elon Musk.
Trump said in a statement that the new entity will "work with the White House and the Office of the Budget to implement large-scale structural reforms."
Ramaswamy was a Republican presidential candidate and during the election campaign he harshly criticized American aid to Ukraine, calling for an end to the war as soon as possible. So does Musk.
It is possible that under Trump, Musk plans to engage, among other things, in auditing the money allocated by the Biden administration to Kyiv. He has already made hints about this on social networks.‼️👉Subscribe and join our channel https://t.me/azmedia01
