As news stories centering billionaire Elon Musk as the real power behind the new Donald Trump presidency have begun to circulate, Trump announced that Musk will head a new commission with no apparent power.
Trump announced on Tuesday night that Musk and perpetual Fox News guest (and host) Vivek Ramaswamy will co-lead the “Department of Government Efficiency.” There is no such department within the U.S. federal government.
