Elon Musk and Marjorie Taylor Greene discuss DOGE project with lawmakers on government spending

news.yahoo.com — December 6, 2024 at 12:03 AM UTC

Elon Musk and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene met with lawmakers to discuss a project called DOGE, which aims to address government spending. Greene mentioned a "naughty list" of lawmakers based on their voting and spending habits. House Speaker Mike Johnson described the meeting as a fresh start for Washington. Some GOP senators emphasized that Congress will ultimately decide spending levels, not Musk and his team. President-elect Donald Trump characterized DOGE as an advisory group focused on reducing waste. However, some lawmakers indicated that cuts to popular programs like Social Security and Medicare may be considered.
