JAKARTA - The White House confirmed that Elon Musk served as senior adviser to US President Donald Trump, not as an employee of the Government's Department of Efficiency (DOGE), so he did not have the authority to make decisions there.
The document was signed by White House Administration Director Joshua Fisher, who stated Elon Musk served as senior adviser to the President.
"Like other senior White House advisers, Musk does not have real or official authority to make his own decisions for the government," the statement said.
Fisher said Musk was neither an employee of DOGE nor his interim agency, and clarified "Musk is not an administrator for US DOGE Services."

The Fisher document was submitted to US District Judge Tanya Chukan, who is considering a lawsuit by the Democratic Attorney General to prevent Musk and his colleagues from influencing federal government policies.
Musk, who has no experience in government, was appointed by President Donald Trump to lead DOGE, a task force aimed at streamlining federal operations and reducing ineffective spending.
