Watch: A black eye and a gold key - Musk's last day at Doge

US President Donald Trump has commended Elon Musk for his work at Doge as he hosted the tech mogul at the White House on his last day as as a special government employee. The president said that Musk "is not really leaving" and will occasionally be back at the White House because Doge is his "baby".

Trump presented Musk with a large golden key which, according to the president, was a thank you from the country. Musk was also asked about his bruised eye, which he attributed to rough-housing with his five-year-old son.

Musk's designated role as a special government employee only allowed him to work a federal job for 130 days in a calendar year.
