The US government has cut 59,000 jobs since January.

Elon Musk was a key champion within the White House for cutting government spending, leading these efforts through his Doge initiative.

According to foreign media, despite the disagreement with Trump, Musk's moves have already had a major impact, as highlighted by the monthly employment report.

The report, which was released today, showed that the federal government lost 22,000 jobs last month. While overall there are 59,000 fewer employees since January, writes A2 CNN.

This type of decline is unusual and does not yet include the number of people on paid leave or with job interruptions, which could push the total number higher.

Overall, the report showed that US employers added 139,000 jobs last month, while the unemployment rate remained steady at 4.2%, despite turmoil caused by tariffs and other policies. (A2 Televizion)
