White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt defends President Trump's efforts to make the government 'good stewards' of taxpayer dollars amid criticism over Elon Musk's role in the Department of Government Efficiency. The administration is working to cut 'waste and abuse' out of the federal government and ensure taxpayer money is aligned with the American people's interests. Trump's buyout offer has led to over 40,000 federal government employees agreeing to return to the office. The president is committed to spending cuts and making the government more efficient.
