Elizabeth Warren Gets Sarcastic After Trump Picks Musk and Ramaswamy for DOGE: “Yeah, That Seems REALLY Efficient”

After President-elect Trump announced that Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy would lead the Department of Government Efficiency, an attempt to root out government waste, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., criticized Trump’s decision and suggested he would send two people to execution hired had the task of one person.

“The Office of Government Efficiency is off to a great start with shared leadership: two people doing one person’s job,” Warren said in a post on X, adding sarcastically, “Yeah, that seems REALLY efficient.”

Musk and Ramaswamy “will pave the way for my administration to cut government bureaucracy, cut excessive regulations, cut wasteful spending and restructure federal agencies,” Trump said in a statement.

Trump noted that the team, nicknamed “DOGE,” “will provide advice and guidance from outside government and work with the White House and the Office of Management & Budget to advance large-scale structural reforms and an entrepreneurial approach to government “I’ve seen it before.”

Musk invited the public to share their thoughts on what should and shouldn’t be cut.

“All measures taken by the Ministry of Government Efficiency are published online to ensure maximum transparency. Whenever the public thinks we’re cutting something important or not cutting something wasteful, just let us know! We will also have a ranking of the most insanely stupid spending. “Your tax dollars will be both extremely tragic and extremely entertaining,” he tweeted.

Ramaswamy dropped his bid for the GOP presidential nomination and endorsed Trump back in January.

“DOGE will soon begin crowdsourcing examples of government waste, fraud and abuse. Americans voted for drastic government reform and they deserve to be part of fixing the problem,” he tweeted.

Warren also criticized Trump’s decision to tap Pete Hegseth for defense secretary, claiming he was unqualified for the role.

“A Fox & Friends Weekend co-host is not qualified to be Secretary of Defense. I chair the Senate Military Personnel Panel. All three of my brothers served in uniform. I respect each of our military members. “Donald Trump’s election will make us less certain and must be rejected,” she explained in a post on X.

Hegseth is an author and Army veteran who has received two Bronze Stars and a Combat Infantryman’s Badge, according to his website.

His last day at Fox was Tuesday.

Trump said in a statement that Hegseth “will be a courageous and patriotic champion of our ‘Peace through Strength’ policy.”
