(Daily Signal)—President Donald Trump bade farewell to Elon Musk in the Oval Office on Friday, telling reporters that the Department of Government Efficiency’s work would continue even after the end of Musk’s service as a special government employee.
“Elon has worked tirelessly, helping lead the most sweeping and consequential government reform program in generations,” Trump said.

Trump also suggested that the work of DOGE would continue.
“The numbers that we’re talking about are substantial, but they’re going to be very much more substantial with time,” he said. “The numbers could double and triple.”
Trump also said that Congress would work with the White House to update the federal government’s computer systems.
Additionally, he said that Congress would work to formally codify DOGE’s spending cuts into law.
The White House has not yet formally sent Congress a rescissions package to do so, which would allow for the cancellation of discretionary spending through a simple majority vote in both houses.
“We’re totally committed to making the DOGE cuts permanent … . Most of it’s going to come later. We’re going to have it [codified] by Congress,” Trump said.
Musk thanked Trump for his support throughout the industrialist’s time in government and told reporters that DOGE’s work would continue.
“This is not the end of DOGE,” he said. “The DOGE influence will only grow stronger … I’m confident that over time, we’ll see … $1 trillion of waste and fraud reduction.”

Asked what he expected his future relationship with Trump would be, Musk told reporters that he expected to remain in communication with the president.
“I expect to continue to provide advice, whatever the president would like,” Musk said.
Trump quipped in response, “I hope so!”
Musk concluded, “I expect to remain a friend and an adviser, and certainly if there’s anything the president wants me to do, I’m at the president’s service.”
At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
