The media pointed to the disappearance of the Mask from the political information field

The head of the US Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and entrepreneur Elon Musk has disappeared from the political information field and is rarely mentioned on the social networks of American President Donald Trump. This was reported on May 19 by the Politico newspaper, after analyzing the number of publications concerning Musk.

"The billionaire's name, which was once an integral part of White House briefings, is now almost not mentioned. Even members of Congress actually excluded him from their newsletters," the newspaper said.

In addition, in February and March, Trump mentioned the entrepreneur on the Truth Social network about four times a week on average, but the last publication related to Musk was made in early April.

According to an analysis by Politico, reducing Musk's presence could have political benefits for the Republican Party. At the same time, the newspaper clarified that some Republicans speak favorably of the entrepreneur, although some have begun to consider him "politically toxic."

Could Trump and Musk's cooperation stop? Analysis

The Washington Post reported on April 21 that Musk wants to leave his job in the government because he is tired of criticism from the left. It was clarified that his status as a special government employee expires at the end of May.

The next day, on April 22, the entrepreneur announced a reduction in his participation in the work of DOGE due to the drop in profits of his company Tesla. Trump said on April 30 that Musk could stay in the administration as long as he wanted.
