Elon Musk appears to be fully embracing his role in the Department of Government Efficiency. The tech entrepreneur recently joined a meeting with Donald Trump’s team to outline his vision for significant budget cuts. While in Washington, Musk also met with Senate Majority Leader John Thune. However, it was his young son, whom he introduced as DOGE Jr. who ultimately stole the spotlight.

DOGE Jr. At Capitol Hill meeting?

After posing for a family photo with Donald Trump and bringing his daughter Azure to Mar-A-Lago, Elon Musk was spotted again at Capitol Hill, this time with his son X Æ A-Xii perched on his shoulder. The internet quickly took notice, as the father-son duo went viral, with the little one clearly enjoying the camera, lights, and attention. Musk, along with entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, is working with Trump’s administration to streamline government operations and cut unnecessary programs.

“Our committee looks forward to partnering with @DOGE to make the federal government more efficient, effective, and accountable to the American people,” the House Oversight Committee tweeted on December 6, sharing a photo of X-Æ-12 sitting on Musk’s shoulders.

‘Naughty or Nice’

The world’s richest person reportedly told lawmakers at Capitol Hill that the Department of Government Efficiency task force would be maintaining a “naughty or nice” list, tracking those who support and oppose his efforts to reduce the federal budget.

Among those present at the meeting were House Speaker Mike Johnson, Senator Mike Lee, Representative James Comer, and Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, as seen in photos circulating on social media.

“The entrenched and ever-growing bureaucracy represents an existential threat to our republic, and politicians have abetted it for too long,” Musk and Ramaswamy wrote last month. “We’re doing things differently. We are entrepreneurs, not politicians.”
