šØ Elon Musk has struck again. This time, itās neither a rocket nor an electric car, but an explosive political project: the DOGE. Officially, itās the “Department of Government Efficiency”. Unofficially? Itās the Musk tornado that shakes everything in its path, from the heart of federal agencies to financial markets.
But what is this radical and controversial project really hiding? And why is the entire United States already feeling its tremors?
šŖ The DOGE: bureaucracy cut to pieces
It all starts with a shocking gesture: Musk brandishes a chainsaw in the middle of a conference. A deliberate symbol of his war against public spending. Under an order signed by Trump, the DOGE was born to “clean up” institutions. At the helm? A mini army of 79 young techies from Tesla and Twitter, tasked with trimming the mammoth.
The result? Massive cuts. Layoffs in droves. And social programs that crumble.
| šļø Affected agencies | š„ Layoffs | š Affected programs |
|---|---|---|
| USAID | 80% | Humanitarian aid |
| CFPB | Elimination | Consumer protection |
| USIP | Resignations | International cooperation |
š± USAID crushed live
The fall of USAID is the most brutal example: millions of people deprived of aid, offices closed, hopes dashed. Musk jokes on Twitter: āfed into the paper shredder.ā Public opinion ignites. The reality, however, hurts.
- Massive job cuts
- Programs halted abruptly
- Real lives, hit hard
š¤ Musk steps backā¦ or almost
Officially, Elon Musk is taking a step back to refocus on Tesla and SpaceX. Unofficially? He keeps an eye (and a hand) on politics. Unwavering support for Trump, unofficial advice, persistent influence.
His withdrawal is just a smokescreen. Observers are already talking about a masked return: less visible, but just as strategic. The agencies, meanwhile, remain under pressure, bracing for the next wave.
ā” Explosive tensions behind the scenes of power
His management style? Direct. His effect on the government? Chaotic. Several cabinet members scream of drifting. He is described as a political bulldozer, unable to engage in dialogue.
- Fracture within the administration
- Collaboration reduced to nothing
- Widespread distrust
š Markets in turmoil, cryptos under tension
DOGE has another side effect: financial markets are panicking. Tesla stocks plunge, cryptos sway, confidence wavers. When Musk speaks, Wall Street listensā¦ and panics.
| š Event | š Impact |
|---|---|
| DOGE announcement | Tesla drop |
| Quarterly results | -71% profit |
| Conflict of interest accusations | Extreme volatility |
š¬ Public opinion: driver or brake?
On social media, voices are divided. Some see Musk as a visionary genius. Others denounce an authoritarian meddling delusion. In this unstable atmosphere, the slightest tweet can make a company soar or crash.
- Leverage effect or domino effect?
- Commitment or manipulation?
- Innovation or abuse of power?
š Innovation vs stability: the dilemma of an uncertain future
Musk fascinates. Musk disturbs. But one thing is certain: he shakes up the status quo. The DOGE is more than a budget program, itās a giant stress test for institutions, marketsā¦ and citizens.
For now, America holds its breath. It remains to be seen whether this chaos will lead to renewalā¦ or collapse.
And you, do you still believe that Musk wonāt change the world?
