Elon Musk says he's taking a step back from DOGE after Tesla "blowback"

Bericht door noumoe »

Elon Musk said Tuesday that he will take a major step back from his work as the leader of the Department of Government Efficiency.

The Tesla CEO has become a close and outspoken ally of President Trump, but his government-slashing work via DOGE has sparked a damaging backlash on Tesla.

Musk said on Tesla's earnings call that "my time allocation to DOGE will drop significantly" likely starting in May, declaring the effort "mostly done."

"I'll have to continue doing it for I think the remainder of the President's term just to make sure the waste and fraud that we stopped does not come roaring back, which it will do if it has the chance," Musk said.

"I think I'll continue to spend a day or two per week on government matters for as long as the President would like me to do so and as long as it would be useful," he added.

Musk also acknowledged "some blowback" on Tesla due to his Trump ties, saying there's been "a few bumps in the road," but said the company's future is still bright.
