Here’s my primary source for Musk’s status as a Special Government Employee. He is actually one of many scattered throughout the Administration.
It’s also interesting to note he does not direct the day-to-day activities of DOGE, that is done by the Acting Administrator, Amy Gleason.
Also interesting this class of employee was created in 1962 under JFK.
So, I have no idea why Musk said he would be there a year. But, his status only permits working 130 days per year for the Government.
