Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy Tapped for Government Efficiency Overhaul

TL;DR Summary
President-elect Donald Trump has established a "Department of Government Efficiency" led by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to cut $2 trillion in federal costs by reducing government jobs. The initiative aims to bypass civil service rules by eliminating entire departments and offering severance packages to encourage voluntary departures. This move, inspired by private sector practices, is expected to face resistance but is seen as necessary by Trump's team to tackle government waste.
