The media learned about the refusal of the US authorities to extend Musk's powers in the civil service

American entrepreneur and billionaire Elon Musk wanted to continue his work in the White House, but was refused by the American authorities. This was reported on June 4 by the British newspaper The Telegraph, citing sources.

"Musk asked for permission to stay in order to make more progress towards his goal of reducing costs by 1 trillion, but he was told that this was not possible," the publication says.

It is noted that after leaving office, the billionaire brought problems to the administration of US President Donald Trump with his harsh reaction to the White House budget project on the social network X (ex. Twitter).

"His intervention <...> caused shock in Washington, where Trump has already had to fight to get his bill through Congress," the article says.
