More at: www.cnn.com...
CNN — President-elect Donald Trump announced Tuesday that Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy will lead a new “Department of Government Efficiency” in his second administration.
“Together, these two wonderful Americans will pave the way for my Administration to dismantle Government Bureaucracy, slash excess regulations, cut wasteful expenditures, and restructure Federal Agencies,” Trump said in a statement.
The announcement of Ramaswamy and particularly Musk, who leads companies with existing, lucrative government contracts, raises immediate questions about potential conflicts of interest.
And it is not immediately clear how the department, which Trump said would “provide advice and guidance from outside of Government,” will operate.

With Pete at the helm, America’s enemies are on notice – Our Military will be Great Again, and America will Never Back Down.”
Since Joe Biden's Secretary of Defense was in the hospital for 9 days before anyone missed him, it's probably not that important of a position???
