Who is Amy Gleason, and is she - rather than Elon Musk - really leading DOGE?
Briefly

The White House has clarified that Amy Gleason is the official administrator of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), countering claims that Elon Musk holds this position. Since the Trump administration, DOGE, under Musk's influence, has implemented extensive changes including terminating numerous federal employees. The administration emphasized Musk's lack of formal authority to make any governmental decisions, which aligns with legal concerns raised about his role. The situation escalated during a press briefing, leading to further inquiries about DOGE's leadership and transparency.
