‘First Buddy’ Elon Musk given office in White House complex

Elon Musk has been given an office in the White House complex for his department of government efficiency (Doge) in the latest sign of his closeness to Donald Trump.

The SpaceX founder has reportedly been assigned space in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, which is next to the main White House, the New York Times has claimed.

Mr Musk, who is so close to Mr Trump that he has been dubbed the “First Buddy” by Lara Trump, the president-elect’s daughter-in-law, is still said to be in discussions about what level of access he will have to the West Wing and how formal his position will be.
