The highest-ranking attorney at the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) quit on Thursday while snubbing Elon Musk, the agency's chairman.
The Wall Street Journalreported Bill McGinley was first named to DOGE in December by President Donald Trump. The attorney said he intended to return to the private sector.
While McGinley praised Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance, he failed to mention Musk.
"I support President Trump, Vice President Vance, and the great teams in the White House and across the administration one hundred percent," he told the Journal in a statement.

"I am in discussions regarding a number of private sector opportunities and will have something to announce in the next couple of weeks," McGinley said.
The resignation comes after co-chair Vivek Ramaswamy also quit DOGE this week.
