Скачать или смотреть Trump Orders Cabinet Chiefs, Not Musk’s DOGE, to Cut Workforce

President Donald Trump said he directed cabinet secretaries to use a “scalpel” rather than a “hatchet” to make personnel cuts, a directive aiming to quell blowback after waves of job cuts have roiled the federal workforce.

“I have instructed the Secretaries and Leadership to work with DOGE on Cost Cutting measures and Staffing,” Trump said in a social media post on Thursday, referring to Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency effort. “As the Secretaries learn about, and understand, the people working for the various Departments, they can be very precise as to who will remain, and who will go.”

“It’s very important that we cut levels down to where they should be, but it’s also important to keep the best and most productive people,” Trump added.

Trump’s message suggests that he is seeking to shift more power and responsibility to department leaders — rather than DOGE — to carry out workforce cuts.
