Why It Matters
doge has become a force in Trump's second-term governance, targeting federal waste and eliminating agencies. Musk's pending departure from doge raises questions about the future of the Trump administration's cost-cutting agency.

这意味着什么
政美国府效率部（doge）已成为特朗普第二任期政府推动改革的关键力量，旨在消除联邦浪费并精简机构。马斯克即将离任的消息引发了外界对特朗普政府这一“成本削减机构”未来走向的质疑。

Though his time with doge could be coming to an end, it remains unclear how Musk's overall involvement and influence in the White House may change.

尽管马斯克在doge的任期可能即将结束，但他在白宫的整体参与度和影响力是否会发生变化仍不明确。

What Is doge?
The Department of Government Efficiency was created via executive order on Trump's first day after moving back into the White House. Its mission: cut $1 trillion in federal spending within 18 months. Musk leads the team overseeing cost audits, agency consolidations, and digital overhauls across government departments.

doge是什么？
美国政府效率部（doge）是特朗普重返白宫首日通过行政命令成立的机构，其使命是在18个月内削减1万亿美元联邦开支。马斯克领导团队负责监督政府各部门的成本审计、机构合并和数字化改革。

Under Musk's leadership, doge launched trackers on federal spending and began cut backs at a number of agencies like the Social Security Administration.

在马斯克的领导下，doge推出了联邦开支追踪系统，并开始削减美国社会保障管理局等机构的预算。

Musk’s Statements on doge’s Goals
Speaking to Fox News on a special that aired on March 27, Musk said doge's goal is to reduce the deficit by a trillion dollars.

马斯克关于doge目标的表态
在3月27日播出的福克斯新闻专访中，马斯克表示，doge的目标是削减1万亿美元赤字。

"We want to reduce the spending by eliminating waste and fraud, reduce the spending by 15 percent, which seems really quite achievable," Musk told Baier.

他告诉主持人贝尔：“我们希望通过消除浪费和欺诈将开支减少15%，这似乎是完全可行的。”

In the interview, Baier said to Musk, "You technically are a special government employee, and you're supposed to be 130 days. Are you going to continue past that or do you think that's what you're going to do, or?"

贝尔在采访中问道：“从法律上讲，您是‘特殊政府雇员’，任期应为130天。您会延长任期吗？”

Musk then said he thinks the team will have accomplished most of the work required to reduce the deficit by a trillion dollars within that time frx—which would be by the end of May.

马斯克回应称，他认为团队将在五月底前完成削减赤字所需的大部分工作。

Musk confirmed the 130-day period and explained that doge is cutting "waste and fraud in real time" with a goal of cutting fraud by about $4 billion each day.

马斯克确认了130天的期限，并解释说，doge正在“实时”削减浪费和欺诈，每天削减大约40亿美元的欺诈行为。

In response to criticism over the cutbacks, Musk stated, "I do agree that we actually want to be careful in the cuts, so we want to measure twice, if not thrice, and cut once. And actually, that is our approach. They may characterize it as shooting from the hip, but it is anything but that."

回应关于削减开支的批评时，马斯克表示：“我确实同意，我们实际上在削减时要小心谨慎，所以我们想要多次衡量，如果不是三次的话，至少要两次，然后再做决定。实际上，这就是我们的做法。虽然他们可能会将其描述为草率决策，但实际情况绝非如此。”

doge itself is scheduled to sunset on July 4, 2026, according to the executive order, unless extended or replaced by Congress.

根据行政命令，doge本身计划在2026年7月4日结束，除非国会延期或替换。

2025年3月31日，记者问唐纳德·特朗普，doge在没有马斯克的情况下是否会继续运作。

"Well, I can't tell you that," he replied. "I can say this, that a lot of the people working with doge are the secretaries, you know, the heads of the various agencies, and they've learned a lot. And they're dealing with the doge people," Trump said. "I think some of them may try and keep the doge people with them, but you know, at a certain point, I think it will end."

他回答道：“嗯，我不能告诉你这个问题。”特朗普表示：“我可以这么说，很多与doge一起工作的人员是各个部门的秘书长，大家知道，他们学到了很多，他们正在与doge团队合作。我认为其中一些人可能会尝试把doge团队留下，但你知道，我认为到了某个点，这一切就会结束。”
