"This victory is a start" - Elon Musk addresses the crowd at Donald Trump's pre-inauguration victory rally
On Sunday, January 19, Elon Musk addressed the crowd at Donald Trump's pre-inauguration victory rally in Washington, DC. The Tesla and SpaceX CEO has been a vocal supporter of the President-elect in the 2024 Presidential elections. He said:

Elon Musk has been appointed as the co-head of the newly-formed Department of Government Efficiency under Trump's administration. The department aims to decrease government spending. Its task involves “making changes to the federal bureaucracy” to “slash excess regulations, cut wasteful expenditures, and restructure federal agencies.”
According to Pillsbury Law, DOGE will be "an advisory or consulting organization" that will provide strategies and recommendations for government leaders to implement. The government will focus on regulatory rescissions, administrative reductions, and cost savings. The founder of Roivant Sciences, Vivek Ramaswamy will be a co-head alongside Musk in the department.
According to The New York Times, Elon Musk will be using office space in the White House complex. The billionaire is expected to occupy a space in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building adjacent to the White House. The outlet further reported that it is unclear whether Musk's co-head, Vivek Ramaswamy, will also be assigned a space in the Eisenhower Executive Building.
Donald Trump will take over as the 47th President of the United States of America on Monday, January 20, 2025.
