Elon Musk speaks at President Trump's first Cabinet meeting:

"I actually just call myself humble tech support here because this is actually almost a literal description of the work DOGE is doing. The overall goal here with the DOGE team is to help address the enormous deficit."

He adds, "We simply cannot sustain as a country with $2 trillion dollar deficits. Just the interest on the National Debt now exceeds the Defense Department's spending. If this continues, THE COUNTRY WILL BECOME DE FACTO BANKRUPT. It's (DOGE) not an optional thing, it is an essential thing. That's the reason I'm here and taking a lot of flak and getting a lot of death threats, by the way. I mean, I could stack them up. If we don't do this, America will go bankrupt."
