About this listen

 Elon Musk's embrace of President Trump and his campaign marked a pivotal moment in the 2024 presidential election. Musk was eventually appointed to head the newly established Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), where he was tasked with cutting federal spending and reducing the national debt. DOGE moved quickly and decisively, triggering lawsuits and further enraging Trump’s critics. Although Musk has since left the Trump administration and experienced a very public fallout with President Trump, DOGE continues to operate and make an impact. Matthew Continetti, Director of Domestic Policy Studies at the American Enterprise Institute, joined FOX News Rundown host Jessica Rosenthal to discuss DOGE, highlighting where it was effective in cutting waste, fraud, and abuse, and where it fell short of the expectations set by Musk and the administration. Continetti, who is featured in FOX Nation's new documentary "DOGE vs. DC," also weighs in on the public spat between Musk and the President, as well as the challenges politicians face when addressing America’s debt seriously. We often have to cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full interview. Today on Fox News Rundown Extra, we will share our entire interview with AEI’s Matthew Continetti on the legacy of DOGE. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
