Former President Trump announced that he will create a government efficiency commission led by Elon Musk. Let’s not forget that “government efficiency” is an oxymoron. Government can't rationally economize, like the rest of us. Its decisions are made politically, and not by profits and losses. Government is not like... an individual, or a business. We don’t voluntarily give our money to the government. It takes our money by force. No individual or business has that ability. Unless, of course, they get the government to steal money on their behalf. But normal people and companies cannot just steal money, and call it "revenues." So government can never be “efficient." It can, however, be a lot smaller and less of a burden on us. Considering that the U.S. federal government is the biggest government in the history of the world, the room to cut its size shouldn't be very hard to do. Watch below:show more

"Government is not like an individual, or a business. We don’t voluntarily give our money to the government. It takes our money by force" Why don't people understand this very point?

I understand the word "efficient" in Trump's context is to make government smaller. So I think it is just semantics in regards to intent. Though I do agree with the point that Government will not just behave as a business would. This is why it should always remain small.

I think they do intend to cut its size. They’re just using that as the name. I’m pretty sure they both want to cut its size actually.

Calling it an Efficiency Commission in my view is a more marketable way to having a commission that can audit so that we can reduce spending and size of government.

Again, you should be in the administration to help work on this. Obviously, it can’t be completely dissolved but it can surely be downsized as small as possible. We could use your help too 🙏

I don't want an "efficient" government. I want a smaller government.

Wouldn’t implementing blockchain technology increase transparency, from there they can focus on the politics of allocating the pool of stolen funds?

It's literally just a choice of words. They discussed it on X. Trump loved it when Elon cleaned house when he bought Twitter.

Elon Musk: I'm a proponent of smaller government, not bigger government. “I'm a proponent of smaller government, not bigger government. So, if somebody's a proponent of more government programs and bigger government, and they see, hey, DOGE is cutting all these government programs, then they'll be fundamentally opposed to that because they just think the government should do more things. I guess that's just a fundamental ideological opinion. But my frank opinion of the government is that the government is just like the DMV that got big, okay. So when you say, like, let's have the government do something, you should think, do you want the DMV to do it?” Interview with CBS News, May 27, 2025

.Elon Musk is a fraud, a criminal, a drug addict, a sociopath, a Nazi, and he is perpetrating—via “Department of Government Efficiency”—the biggest scam on the American people and the federal government of the United States of America in history. This cannot continue. Musk must be removed from our government.

Trump on Venezuelan oil: Our giant oil companies will be spending at least $100 billion of their own money, not the government’s money. They don’t need government money, but they do need government protection and government security.

For too long, The federal government has been spending beyond its means. Now, President Trump & Elon Musk are cutting back the bloat, & the Democrats are appalled because they can no longer spend taxpayer money like there's no tomorrow. The money spigot is OFF. Permanently. Department of Government Efficiency is hard at work identifying fraud, waste, & abuse & returning our Government to We The People.

Elon Musk: "What we saw was a large amount of money being sent to non-governmental organizations, this by the way is one of the biggest sources of fraud in the world is government-funded, non-governmental organizations. This is a gigantic fraud loophole where the government can give money to an NGO and then there are no controls over that NGO"

🚨NEW: David Friedberg has a direct message for Democratic Party "The Democratic party has an opportunity to stand up and say 'We don't want things like regulatory capture, or pork, or inside stuff going on...they can have all that and still align with increasing efficiency in Government. Efficiency in Government should not be a party issue. By allowing the Republicans to say 'We're for efficient government,' it implies that the Democrats are the opposite of that saying, 'We're for *inefficient government.' If the Democrats want to win this they can take this message and say we're for *more* efficient government and the way we're going to do it is by getting rid of regulatory capture, deals, etc. There's an opportunity for the Democrats to stand up and take the country in the direction that we *all* as Americans need it to go to, which is to have a sustainable federal Government. That's going to require some degree of fiscal conservatism and action, but they can take a different point of view on how they do it and have core beliefs around that." david friedberg The All-In Podcast

BREAKING: Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani just announced COGE (Commission of Government Efficiency) and he takes a shot at Elon Musk in the process. "COGE, COGE, yes. Now, Elon Musk manipulated the fact that so many people across this country want to see a government that is more efficient. He used that as a justification to simply slash and burn so much of the services that Americans rely on. What we are speaking about is a sincere fulfillment of a vision that ensures that city government is operating with the same level of focus that a working class New Yorker is when they're trying to balance their bills. And that means looking at the processes we have, that means looking at the procedures of city government, and that means looking at anything we can do to deliver a more efficient and more excellent government... It's just the name and what it should have been. I think government efficiency, these are words that somehow have been understood as if they are Republican priorities when in fact they are the priorities of anyone who believes in the public sector. And yet Elon Musk took that language and used it to cut as many jobs that were as critical as possible for so many of the neediest people across the country and across the world. Ours is going to be a focus on actually delivering efficiency, not as a byword for cutting services, but actually a sincere commitment to efficiency."

Elon Musk: Entrenched interests sucking away taxpayer money will not like what we'll do. “There's certainly a lot of work for a Department of Government Efficiency. There will be immense opposition, obviously, to making government more efficient from entrenched interests that currently benefit from sucking away vast amounts of taxpayer money. They will not like the fact that they're not getting it anymore. They will fight tooth and nail. But it's got to be done. And like I said, we're going to aim to reduce government spending, get government out of people's lives as much as possible, and restore freedom and liberty.” Pittsburgh, October 20, 2024

Elon Musk Says We Have to Cut Government Spending Immediately "The reality is that all government spending is actually taxation. Sometimes people think some of it is taxation and some of it's not, but it's all taxation, because the part that is not covered by tax revenue becomes inflation. So you're either taxed directly or you're taxed by inflation, but you are for sure taxed. And so all government spending is taxation. So we have to reduce government spending overall. This will be forced upon us in the future because already just the interest payments on the debt are 23% of all federal tax revenue. Just the interest payments. The interest payments now exceed the Defense Department budget, which is a trillion dollars a year. That's a lot of money." Elon Musk
