Elon Musk has spent a lot of time inside the Oval Office since Donald Trump returned to the White House.

It was from there that the world’s richest man, sporting a black eye, was farewelled from his role in the Trump administration on Friday.

He insists his so-called Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, has made great progress, cutting more than $150 billion from the US budget. But that falls well short of his initial wildly optimistic claims that he could slash one trillion dollars in government spending.

Today, staff writer at The Atlantic magazine, Ashley Parker, on Elon’s exit and whether that’s really the end of involvement with the Trump administration.
