What to expect from Musk's Dept. of Government Efficiency
Amid a busy week of speculation and nominations as President-elect Donald Trump rounds out his Cabinet, Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy have offered the first glimpse into what their Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) could look like. The pair outlined their plan in a Wall Street Journal op-ed. What does this mean for your bottom line? We get into it.
In this week’s episode of Capitol Gains, anchor Rachelle Akuffo, Washington Correspondent Ben Werschkul, and senior columnist Rick Newman break down Musk and Ramaswamy’s outline for what they hope to achieve as DOGE co-leads, Cantor Fitzgerald CEO Howard Lutnick’s selection for Commerce Secretary, and more.
The team is also joined by Whalen Global Advisors Chairman Chris Whalen to discuss what’s to come for DOGE, debt, and the national deficit under a second Trump administration.
