President Trump's First Cabinet Meeting That Rocked Washington.

On February 26, 2025, President Donald Trump convened his first Cabinet meeting of his second term, emphasizing a directive for his team to adhere strictly to his policies. Elon Musk, leading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), outlined an ambitious plan to reduce the federal deficit by $1 trillion by 2026. This initiative includes identifying and eliminating inefficiencies, such as non-existent employees on government payrolls. Despite facing criticism and personal threats, Musk's approach received President Trump's full support. The meeting also addressed international relations, with Trump proposing a 25% tariff on the European Union, alleging the bloc was "formed to screw the United States." The administration also directed federal agencies to prepare significant staff reduction plans by March 13, aiming to streamline operations and cut costs.
