Tech Titan Quits Government Role in Shocking Exit

In a surprise move, a major tech figure has stepped down from a key role in the U.S. government just months after joining a new federal department aimed at slashing government waste. The resignation, announced via social media, came with a tone of gratitude—but also subtle defiance.

Originally appointed to co-lead the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), the executive made early waves by cutting thousands of jobs and reviewing costly programs. But behind the scenes, tensions reportedly grew—especially over a massive spending bill that contradicted DOGE’s mission.

The final post on X (formerly Twitter) thanked the President but hinted at deeper frustrations. Retweets critical of the administration’s fiscal choices added fuel to speculation of a rift.

While the White House called it a planned departure, critics say it signals deeper dysfunction. The tech figure has returned to private ventures, leaving behind questions about whether Silicon Valley values can ever truly fix government.
