Elon Musk , the tech billionaire who oversees the cost-cutting U.S. DOGE Service , visited the CIA on Monday .

Musk has drawn fire for aggressive agency-shredding tactics carried out with little transparency.

The invitation is an attempt to establish a good working relationship that might avert such a fate for the nation’s premier spy agency.

Much of the reduction is being accomplished through inducements such as early retirements.

Some analysts took a dim view of DOGE ’s efforts.

Musk “has no known background in the work that the CIA does,” a former intelligence policy expert said.
