Elon Musk would be ready to leave his role as government because he is tired of what he considers a litany of vicious attacks and contrary to the ethics of the left, according to a report of The Washington Post.
It is not known when Musk heads at the head of the Ministry of Effectiveness of the Government; Its special status of government employees will expire at the end of next month. A person familiar with his thought said The post that Musk thinks that his work to DOGE Will not be reduced due to his departure, noting that staff members have already established themselves through a series of federal agencies.
But the speculation of the possible departure of Musk occurs when his influence in the administration seems to decline. The New York Times reported last week that the IRS interim commissioner was replaced after the Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent complained that Musk had set up his favorite candidate without the support of Bessent. Musk also annoyed other members of the cabinet by not coordinating with them in cost reduction movements.
In the meantime, Wedbush Securities analyst Dan Ives said Musk should leave his government role and focus his efforts on Tesla again, arguing that the company is confronted with a “red code”.
“Musk must leave the government, take a major step back to Doge and start being CEO of Tesla full time,” Ives wrote to customers on Sunday, according to Bloomberg. “Tesla is Musk and Musk is Tesla … And whoever thinks that brand damage has inflicted is not a real thing, spend a little time talking to car buyers in the United States, Europe and Asia. You will think differently after these discussions. ”
“Tesla has unfortunately become a global political symbol of Trump’s administration / DOGE,” added Ives, continuing to affirm that the company is confronted with “potentially 15% – 20% of permanent demand for future Tesla buyers due to the damage brand that Musk created with Doge”.
The post Also revealed that some officials refused to comply with Musk’s requirement that federal employees send weekly emails listing five things they have done the previous week. He warned that not sending the email would count as a resignation.
However, only two days after Musk’s order was rendered on February 22, the staff management office said in a briefing for human resources agents that participation was voluntary and that it would not be considered as a resignation, as an email obtained by The post shows.
The email also indicated that the office did not intend to do anything with the messages submitted.
The agencies now use different policies, certain agencies that have ceased to demand emails. A smaller number of departments always follow the mandate, while others require emails, but do not follow to check the compliance or follow the responses in a way that the employees have noticed. Many of those who still send emails send similar messages every week or consider them a joke.
