The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has appointed Amy Gleason as its acting administrator. Gleason, a seasoned executive with expertise in health care technology, previously worked in the first Trump administration. DOGE has been actively advocating for budget cuts within government agencies, a move supported by entrepreneur Elon Musk and his associates.
Despite Musk's involvement, the White House clarified that he is serving as a senior adviser to President Donald Trump and not as a DOGE employee. The appointment of an administrator for DOGE was mandated by an executive order signed by Trump last month, leading to speculation about who would fill the role.
