Musk's $2 Trillion DOGE Cuts Face GOP Skepticism and Federal Challenges

Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, leading the Trump administration's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), aim to cut $2 trillion in federal spending by targeting several agencies, including the Pentagon, Department of Education, and IRS. They propose reducing bureaucracy and unauthorized spending, but face challenges as such cuts require Congressional approval. GOP senators, forming a 'DOGE caucus,' support these efforts, though none are on the Senate Appropriations Committee. The initiative may lead to significant layoffs and restructuring within federal agencies.
