Elon Musk's Takeover Is Being Aided by a Trumpworld Power Couple

Quick Summary:

Stephen and Katie Miller—he's "the prime minister," sources say; she's DOGE's comms guru—liaise between the White House and Elon Musk, and are centrally involved as he tears the government apart.

Katie Miller, like many people associated with DOGE, is, as a special government employee, limited to working in the federal government for no more than 130 days in any given 365-day period and subject to less stringent ethics requirements than permanent employees.

The involvement of the Millers is also one of the many reasons why Trumpworld sources say they now don’t currently see an implosion between Trump and Musk happening anytime soon even though, as WIRED previously reported, rifts have already emerged within the president’s inner circle over the centibillionaire’s level of power.
