Earlier this week, Bret Baier sat down with DOGE leadership—including Elon Musk—for a wide-ranging and revealing interview about the future of the organization, its goals, and what the team has uncovered so far. Watch the full interview here:
The following day on The Five, Greg Gutfeld offered high praise, calling it “the best thing I have ever seen on this network.”
Gutfeld didn’t hold back, framing the revelations in biblical terms and urging viewers to “hate the center, not the sin.” He compared DOGE critics—especially those targeting Elon Musk—to “corrupt dinosaurs” facing the impact of an “orange asteroid.”
Across X, the interview was widely praised for being informative, eye-opening, and one of the most impressive pieces of journalism in recent memory:
So what did the interview reveal?
Though just 30 minutes long, the interview was packed with a remarkable amount of information. Elon Musk and the DOGE leadership team didn’t shy away from addressing their critics head-on. Musk responded directly to Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz and others, arguing that the opposition has failed to offer any specific counterarguments—only vague disdain toward DOGE itself.
They also shed light on the recent wave of controversial firings across numerous federal agencies, offering much-needed context to what many saw as abrupt shakeups. According to the team, these actions were part of a broader effort to streamline operations and cut through entrenched inefficiencies.
One of the most talked-about moments came when they exposed the staggering amount of waste inside the federal government. From bloated budgets to outdated bureaucracies, DOGE laid out a case for urgent reform.
But perhaps the biggest takeaway was the organization’s end game: a plan to save $1 trillion by radically rethinking how the federal government operates. Their goal is nothing short of transforming it into a leaner, more effective system that works better for everyone
Whether you’re skeptical or all in, one thing is clear: DOGE has become a force to be reckoned with. This interview wasn’t just a headline—it was a mission statement. With Elon Musk leading the charge and a bold $1 trillion vision on the table, DOGE is challenging the status quo and inviting the public to imagine a government that’s not just smaller, but smarter. If the reaction across X is any indication, this conversation could reshape the narrative entirely.
