US President Donald Trump has told his cabinet that Elon Musk will soon step back from his government role, according to a Politico report. Musk has been assisting in the Department of Government Efficiency but will now return to focus on his businesses. Some Trump allies see Musk as a "political liability." However, Trump praised him as a "patriot" and a "friend." Musk is expected to keep an informal advisory role. His transition out of government will likely happen as his special employee status ends. Despite stepping back, insiders say Musk will remain close to Trump's administration. (PC: Reuters)
