Summary
Elon Musk’s team is reportedly gaining control over key U.S. government operations.
His Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) officials have clashed with Treasury staff over access to federal payment systems, which handle $6 trillion annually.
Reports indicate Musk aides have locked civil servants out of government databases and are reviewing tech operations across agencies.
Originally intended as an external advisory body, DOGE was instead integrated into the government by Trump’s executive order, giving Musk a direct role in federal operations.
Oh yes the California that checks notes had the Black Panthers patrolling with guns because no one else could be bothered and then Regan and his cronies enacted the most extreme gun laws in the country. Those damn libs!
What’s ironic is that it was Republicans in power at the time, as well as the NRA support, which passed the bill.
