Musk, Trump, and the GOP: A Constitutional Crisis?
Elon Musk’s actions regarding a Treasury payment system, involving the unauthorized release of employee names and subsequent threats, represent an unprecedented abuse of power by a private citizen. His actions defy established legal and ethical norms for public officials, with no accountability seemingly in sight. This situation highlights the influence of significant private funding on government operations and the apparent lack of effective oversight from Congress. The lack of response from Congressional Democrats and the potential for Supreme Court sympathy further emboldens Musk’s disregard for established governance.
