Marko Elez, 25, deployed by DOGE to scrutinise federal spending, resigned after WSJ asked the White House about his connection to the deleted social media account, said the report.

"Just for the record, I was racist before it was cool," the account posted in July, according to the WSJ's review of archived posts.
