Senator Elizabeth Warren has criticized the Department of Government Efficiency’s (DOGE) decision to have two leaders share the role, calling it “really efficient” in a sarcastic tone. Instead of one leader, the department has appointed two people to share the role Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, a decision that has drawn mixed reaction from government officials, specially those who have expressed their anti-crypto stance.

Warren sarcastically labeled this arrangement of having two leaders as “really efficient,” in her X post, implying that the decision to appoint two leaders may actually create more problems and complexity rather than streamlining the operations.
The Department of Government Efficiency, which was created to enhance productivity and cut down on unnecessary processes within government operations, has already raised eyebrows with this leadership choice. Democrats siding with Warren argue that having two leaders may lead to overlapping responsibilities, slowed decision-making, and potentially higher costs, contradicting the department’s core mission of improving efficiency.
