Summary
The White House confirmed that Elon Musk is working as a “special government employee” under Trump, granting him significant authority to cut federal spending.
Musk has a government email, office space, and access to sensitive Treasury systems. His team abruptly shut down USAID headquarters on Monday.
Musk is consolidating unchecked power, raising legal and ethical concerns, particularly given his federal contracts.
Musk is unpaid and may not be required to disclose financial interests.
It’s amazing how many guns we have, how pro 2A we are, how much pride we carry over things like the American Revolution, and we say dumb shit like violence is never the answer.
I’ve been telling people to prepare to resist for a bit now. The amount of “no the other team is the gun team!” is absurd. Most of these people will be useless and will happily rat out their gay neighbor when the time comes.
