US President Donald Trump revealed that Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy will lead a newly created Department of Government Efficiency, or “DOGE.” This initiative, aimed at streamlining government operations and reducing bureaucratic waste, aligns with Trump’s “Save America” movement and promises to reshape federal spending and regulatory practices.
Following the announcement, Dogecoin (DOGE) experienced a surge in trading, with analysts predicting further growth in its value, fueled by renewed interest in the cryptocurrency market.

According to Donald Trump’s statement, the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) will focus on cutting down unnecessary regulations, reducing wasteful expenditures, and restructuring federal agencies.
Elon Musk and Ramaswamy will lead this effort from outside the federal government, partnering with the White House and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to drive large-scale reform. Trump described the project as potentially “The Manhattan Project” of modern government, emphasizing the ambitious nature of the initiative.
The DOGE initiative has been positioned as a patriotic mission to improve government accountability and efficiency, making the federal system more responsive to “We the People.” Trump expressed confidence that this effort would create a “leaner” and “more accountable” government by July 4, 2026, in time for the United States’ 250th anniversary. Musk echoed the sentiment, suggesting that the changes would send “shockwaves through the system.”
