Antonio Gracias, a close associate of Elon Musk and a high-ranking official in the DOGE government initiative, has resigned from his position.
His departure comes after growing concerns about potential conflicts of interest, as he managed nearly $2 billion for major U.S. public pension funds while serving in government. Gracias, a private-equity billionaire, was also involved in the Trump administration's DOGE efforts. The situation has prompted calls from union leaders for greater oversight of officials holding dual roles in government and private finance.
This resignation marks another high-profile exit from the DOGE team.
