RAW STORY
As Elon Musk's days in federal government dwindle, he's leaving behind a cadre of his allies from the private sector to continue his work in the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and elsewhere in the government.
Donald Trump reportedly told administration insiders that Musk will be leaving his position soon, likely in May.
But Bloomberg published a list of loyalists that he'd installed into the agency, and who will remain — with access to some of the government’s most sensitive databases.
Among them is Antonio Gracias, a long-time investor in Musk's companies including Tesla and SpaceX. He is also the founder of Valor Equity Partners. He currently has a role in the Social Security Administration.
The next administrator to NASA is Jared Isaacman. The founder of Shift4 invested more than $25 million in SpaceX. He will need to be confirmed by the Senate.
Joe Gebbia is the co-founder of Airbnb and a member of Tesla's board of directors. In an X post Gebbia claimed, "My first project at DOGE is improving the slow and paper-based retirement process.”
Bloomberg also made note of Michael Grimes' position in the Department of Commerce. He was an advisor to Musk during his purchase of X and "has been tapped to lead a planned sovereign wealth fund."
