From PC Mag: Elon Musk has officially left his role with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
Musk spent the last few days teasing his departure, suggesting he would refocus his attention on ventures like Tesla, SpaceX, and his social media network X. In a Wednesday night tweet, he wrote, "As my scheduled time as a Special Government Employee comes to an end, I would like to thank President @realDonaldTrump for the opportunity to reduce wasteful spending."
Musk began his tenure as a "special government employee" (SGE) following Trump's inauguration. This designation allows people with special skills to hold government positions for 130 days per year without divesting from their private businesses.
The White House confirmed to Reuters that Musk's offboarding began last night following a decision "at a senior staff level." Musk did not have a direct conversation with Trump about his departure, though he's been talking about it publicly for a few weeks.
