The world's richest man and head of the Department of Government Efficiency, Elon Musk, reportedly didn't start preparing to upend the federal bureaucracy until the days after Donald Trump won the 2024 election, according to a new report.
Musk and his team of young computer engineers have been gutting the federal government, recommending the firing of tens of thousands of civil servants — including at least 6,000 US veterans — and shuttering entire agencies since Trump's inauguration earlier this year.
