イーロン・マスク氏し「特別とくべつ政府せいふ職員しょくいんの任期にんき終了しゅうりょうする」SNSに投稿とうこう

Elon Musk, the entrepreneur who has led the Department of Government Efficiency DOGE under the Trump administration in the United States, has announced that he will be stepping down from his government position.

Mr. Musk, who has had a significant impact on the administration so far, had already indicated his intention to greatly reduce his political activities.

On his first day in office this January, U.S. President Trump signed an executive order to establish DOGE, the Department of Government Efficiency, aimed at reducing government spending, and appointed Mr. Musk as its head.

Mr. Mask, who had been working as a special government employee hired for a limited period of up to 130 days a year and had pushed forward with large-scale reductions of federal government staff, announced on the 28th on X formerly Twitter, As my term comes to an end, I thank the President for giving me the opportunity to reduce wasteful spending, making it clear that he is stepping down from his government position.

Since Mr. Musk expressed his support for Mr. Trump in last years presidential election, he has gained Trumps trust and has had a significant influence on the administration.

On the other hand, regarding DOGE, there has been growing backlash among the public, saying that the methods are too forceful, such as sudden large-scale layoffs of employees, and this has begun to affect the management of the electric vehicle manufacturer Tesla.

In this context, Mr. Musk indicated last month that, having made certain progress with his main work, he intends to focus on managing Tesla from this month and significantly reduce his political activities.

On the other hand, in a post on the 28th, Mr. Musk expressed his belief that DOGE will continue to become even stronger and indicated that activities related to DOGE will continue in the future.
