Acting United States Secretaries Of The Treasury
Acting is an activity in which a story is told by means of its enactment by an actor or actress who adopts a character—in theatre, television, film, radio, or any other medium that makes use of the mimetic mode. Acting involves a broad range of skills, including a well-developed imagination, emotional facility, physical expressivity, vocal projection, clarity of speech, and the ability to interpret drama. Acting also demands an ability to employ dialects, accents, improvisation, observation and emulation, mime, and stage combat. Many actors train at length in specialist programs or colleges to develop these skills. The vast majority of professional actors have undergone extensive training. Actors and actresses will often have many instructors and teachers for a full range of training involving singing, scene-work, audition techniques, and acting for camera. Most early sources in the West that examine the art of acting ( grc-gre, ὑπόκρισις, ''hypokrisis'') dis ...

Musk has offered to run the department The Department of Government Efficiency (DoGE) is a proposed US government department. Proposal The idea for the department was first proposed by Elon Musk, who joked about potentially establishing such an agency under a second Trump administration and naming it after a cryptocurrency.

The concept has been met with skepticism from some, including the American Federation of Government Employees, who worry about potential job losses and the replacement of civil servants with allies.
