Elon Musk's plan for the new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) may be in disarray following a number of changes to the initiative in recent days.

Bill McGinley, who was appointed DOGE's legal counsel in December, is planning to return to the private sector, The Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday.

In a statement to the newspaper, McGinley did not mention Musk but said: "I support President Trump, Vice President Vance, and the great teams in the White House and across the administration 100%."

The White House has been contacted for comment via email. Musk has been contacted via email to X (formerly Twitter), the social media platform he owns.

McGinley's planned departure comes on the heels of Vivek Ramaswamy's exit amid reports of a rift with Musk and other incoming staff. Trump had tapped billionaires Musk and Ramaswamy to head DOGE, a nongovernmental task force assigned to find ways to slash federal spending and make the federal government more efficient.

But among the executive orders Trump signed on his first day in office was one that officially integrated DOGE into the federal government. The order renamed the U.S. Digital Service as the U.S. DOGE Service. The Digital Service was created by President Barack Obama in 2014 to modernize the government's approach to technology.

DOGE has already drawn lawsuits challenging its operations.

Trump's executive order said DOGE's aim was "to implement the President's DOGE Agenda, by modernizing Federal technology and software to maximize governmental efficiency and productivity."

That is a much narrower goal than the sweeping mission, which Musk has touted, to massively slash spending and overhaul the federal government.

Musk and Ramaswamy pledged in an op-ed published by the Journal in November to significantly trim the federal budget and oversee "mass headcount reductions across the federal bureaucracy."

Well what was the fucking point? Other than giving Musk an in to the US government of course.

Oh sweet an EDS thread

This is exactly what happened last time, and why his appointees had such a terrible turnover rate. His leadership style is chaotic trash. He starts from ignorance knowing nothing about the problems he promises to solve, then sets impossible goals he puts these unqualified people in the positions to solve and ruthlessly dogs them because his reputation for keeping his retarded unachievable promises is at stake. I'd bet anything that's the real reason Vivek exited day one to go run for office in Ohio.

This. I'm gonna guess we're gonna see a fuckin revolving door of unqualified sycophants who fail to meet their projections, get replaced by another unqualified sycophant, and then Trump tries to retroactively claim they were a terrible pick that he was forced to choose by RINOs or some shit. Repeat until this fuckin presidency is over.

It was the same exact shit in 2016. They got fucking nothing done despite being handed the house senate and presidency. And he tried to blame his complete utter incompetency and terrible leadership on the fucking Mueller investigation.

I was promised that the Debt Ceiling would be smashed Tuesday, Country Wide deportations would start Wednesday, and liberal tears would garnish everything all week.

Except instead we just got a fat orange retard releasing violent criminals to our streets (in the wrong way so they can't own guns anymore, lol) and insulting people on TV.
It'll be a repeat of Trump term 1.0, but he can't appoint 3 judges anymore so he won't even have that. It'll just be a long wet fart of nothing with tax breaks for the 1% mixed in.

Oh don't forget executive orders that don't work and a nazi salute from one of his main allies during his inauguration.

2 released pride boys saw me on the street with my "left is best" t-shirt, and 1 of them pointed a gun at me, and made me violently sodomize the other. They recorded it and said if i went to gov. Goons, they'd release it on the internet. And the price for my tomatoes just 2x, because all hardworking migrants are in hiding and refused to work even after i offered them $3 an hr( a $1 raise)
Fuck tRump, the goddamned exploiter
