Bill O'Reilly believes Elon Musk, DOGE are 'right on track'

() Bill O’Reilly said the Elon Musk led Department of Government Efficiency has more work to do on cutting down government spending, but that results are already evident. 

O’Reilly said he recently spoke with the tech billionaire at an event at the White House. 

“So Musk turns to me, and he says, ‘How am I doing?’ And I said, ‘You’re doing well, you’re right on track, because we can’t have this kind of unbelievable waste of taxpayer dollars, but the presentation needs to be toned down,’” O’Reilly said. 

“I’m not going to take credit for it, but since that time, the Musk presentation has changed,” he added.   

O’Reilly also spoke on DOGE’s work, saying the agency has saved “$1,000 a head” thus far and that cuts are still ongoing.

“They haven’t even gotten to the Pentagon yet. They haven’t even gone in there yet with the $800 toilet seats and stuff.”

Despite the remaining work, Musk is already starting to wrap up.

“At this point, as we are in 100 days, Musk’s role is on the decline because Musk’s got to get back to his private concerns, which have taken a huge hit,” O’Reilly said.

But O’Reilly also said it is likely that the tech billionaire’s relationship with President Donald Trump will continue after the two are no longer working together. 

Trump “respects achievement,”  O’Reilly said. “He wants to get information from people who have succeeded, that’s what he wants.”
