Senator Elizabeth Warren has addressed DOGE Chair Elon Musk in an open letter, suggesting ways to enhance federal governmental efficiency by cutting unnecessary spending. In her January 23 letter, she proposed full funding for the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), closing the carried interest loophole, and implementing a capital gains tax on estates. Warren emphasized that these measures are targeted at the wealthy, a group to which Musk undeniably belongs with his substantial net worth. Despite their differing political backgrounds, Warren has expressed a desire for enhanced IRS funding to align with DOGE's objectives of improving efficiency and safeguarding taxpayer interests. The letter highlights concerns regarding potential conflicts of interest within DOGE's leadership, further complicating the alliance between Warren and Musk.
