Tesla CEO Elon Musk created the Department of Government Efficiency ( DOGE ) to reduce wasteful spending and eliminate unnecessary regulations.

Musk ’s post has received 33.3 million views, 309,000 likes, and 12,000 comments.

If DOGE successfully cuts federal spending, it could theoretically lower borrowing needs and put downward pressure on Treasury yields.
