Elon Musk will attend Trump’s first Cabinet meeting of his second term as confirmed by White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt. Musk, the CEO of SpaceX and Tesla, is overseeing the Department of Government Efficiency and will discuss efforts to identify waste, fraud, and abuse at federal agencies. Musk’s directive to federal employees to email a list of accomplishments was deemed voluntary by multiple department heads to protect national security. Musk, considered a special government employee, is not paid for his work and has no formal authority to make decisions in the Trump administration. This information came to light in response to a lawsuit filed by Democratic state attorneys general challenging Musk’s role. The White House maintains that Musk is a senior advisor to the president overseeing DOGE, with no decision-making power, and not an employee of the government. Musk’s influence and efforts to cut federal spending and downsize the workforce are evident in his role within the administration. The meeting reflects Musk’s ongoing involvement and influence in government operations under the Trump administration.
