Trump appointed Elon musk – The richest person in the world and the Tesla and Space X CEO – for Dogea Management.
Doga has swallowed the Federal Agency since Trump was inaugurated a month ago, using what the White House claims to be billions in wasteful federal consumption.

And Democrats have a goal.
The government Ned Lamont claimed on Thursday that Doga seems to aim to “push the costs to the state and say,” You guys are dealing with it. ”

Burgum also claimed that “when we export more energy abroad to our friends and allies, it will help President Trump to win the Nobel Peace Prize. I mean, part of the way these wars end if they sell energy to our allies, so they sell They can stop buying our allies from our opponents who use these sales for oil financing against us. “
