Early bird: Elon Musk is leaving Trump's administration. Germany will develop long-range weapons with Ukraine
After conflicts, Musk is leaving president's administration
Elon Musk is leaving the government position of the main advisor to President Donald Trump after leading efforts to limit and revise federal bureaucracy. His departure, announced on Wednesday evening, marks the end of a turbulent chapter that involved thousands of fired employees, the abolition of government agencies and a lot of legal disputes. Despite the shocks, the billionaire and entrepreneur struggled with problems in the unfamiliar environment of Washington and achieved much less than he hoped.
He dramatically reduced his goal of cutting expenditure from 2 trillion dollars to 150 billion dollars and increasingly expressed frustration at the resistance to his goals. He sometimes clashed with other top members of Trump's administration, who were annoyed at the newcomer's attempt to reshape their departments, and faced a strong political response for his efforts, the agency AP reported.
