Here's what's happening with Doge: Despite claiming maximum transparency, there's confusion about who's in charge and what they're doing, especially with federal job losses. The White House says Elon Musk isn't the Doge administrator but oversees it for President Trump.
Trump calls Musk a "patriot," whether "employee" or "consultant," but dodges concerns about conflicts of interest with Musk's companies, despite them working with agencies that regulate or contract with his companies. Trump claims he wouldn't allow conflicts of interest, stating Musk can't partake in areas where conflicts exist.
There's contradiction, since a White House official says Musk only advises Trump, while Musk implies he's making decisions. Trump addressed speculation about a divide, saying Musk told him people are "trying to drive us apart," but that the public "sees what's happening."
