Musk on DOGE: ‘As we’re finding savings, that’s going to translate directly to reductions in tax’

Speaking at CPAC, Elon Musk discussed the work his Department of Government Efficiency is doing, saying the cuts the agency is making will save money for the public.

“So, as we’re finding savings, that’s going to translate directly to reductions in tax,” Musk said.

Before he did a question and answer session, Musk was presented with a chain saw by Argentinian President Javier Milei, who called it a “chainsaw for bureaucracy.”

Asked about possibly auditing the Federal Reserve, Musk said, “Sure.”

Musk also claimed Democrats amplified illegal immigration to expand their voting base, alleging Democrats were flying immigrants without legal status into swing states.

“That is why the Biden administration was pushing to get as many illegals as possible and spend every dollar possible to get as many — because every one of them is a customer. Everyone’s a voter,” he said. “So, the whole thing was a giant voter importation scam.”
