Trump is determined to erase any signal of Musk

Trump is determined to erase any signal of Musk

Elon Musk wears a DOGE shirt.

“We communicated with agency HR leads that OPM was no longer going to manage the 5 things process nor utilize it internally,” OPM Director Scott Kupor mentioned in a press release. “At OPM, we believe that managers are responsible for staying informed about what their team members are working on and have many other existing tools to do so.”

He added that the company would help departments “as they transition to rigorous performance management to include regular check-ins.”

The “5 things” directive was one among Musk’s signature DOGE initiatives. Rolled out in February below the guise of accelerating accountability, it caught company heads off guard and confused federal staff. Emails with topic traces like “What did you do last week?” have been typically flagged as excessive precedence, directing staff to record 5 accomplishments. Musk claimed it was at Trump’s path, warning that failure to reply could be thought-about a resignation.

Its formal finish now serves as a definitive break, or at the least the efficiency of 1.

The shift comes simply months after Musk’s stint within the Trump administration led to controversy. What had began as an in depth alliance between Trump and his “first buddy” rapidly was a bitter, public cut up. 

Musk criticized Trump’s “One Big, Beautiful Bill” as an “abomination,” whereas Trump withdrew Musk’s NASA nominee, Jared Isaacman, and later threatened to tug billions in federal contracts from Musk’s corporations.

And Musk didn’t maintain again. He accused Trump of being named within the Epstein recordsdata, claiming that’s “the real reason they have not been made public.”

President Donald Trump and Elon Musk are seen hawking Teslas on the White Home.

Since then, Trump has fluctuated between criticizing Musk publicly and lengthening olive branches. He as soon as hawked Teslas on the White Home garden—even shopping for one for the White Home—solely to drift the thought of promoting or giving it away just a few months later. After Musk introduced plans to launch a 3rd celebration, Trump referred to as it “ridiculous,” saying that such ventures by no means work. For as soon as, he is perhaps proper.

Even Trump’s allies are desirous to distance themselves. Kupor, who took over OPM in July, made certain to emphasise throughout a press look that, “I have zero personal relationship with Elon Musk. I have talked to Elon Musk once on the phone in my life.”

And whereas Musk claims he’s stepping again from politics, his retreat hasn’t been with out points. Tesla is struggling, his political prospects have dimmed, and now one among his core office insurance policies has been formally scrapped.

Although the White Home didn’t reply to Every day Kos’ request for remark, the message is obvious: Trump’s group is attempting—at the least for now—to disconnect from Musk and every little thing he delivered to the Trump administration.

No matter occurs subsequent within the Musk-Trump saga, at the least for now federal staff can lastly breathe a sigh of aid.
