The location suggests that Mr. Musk, who owns companies with billions of dollars in contracts with the federal government, will continue to have remarkable access to President-elect Donald J. Trump.

The DOGE will have an office in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, within the White House complex. Trump said Musk is getting an office “for about 20 people we’re hiring to make sure these get implemented.” The order also set up DOGE teams of at least four people at each federal agency to implement the program.

As if the billionaire megadonor doesn’t already have enough access to Donald Trump, Musk is reportedly poised to receive office space near the West Wing.

The president and DOGE leader will be cozier than ever after reports that Trump had become annoyed by his presence.
