Musk’s Coup: While Trump Distracts, a Billionaire Seizes Power
Following Steve Bannon’s “flood the zone” strategy, the Trump administration, with Elon Musk’s assistance, has initiated a significant power grab. Musk, having gained access to the Department of Treasury’s payment system, is unilaterally halting federal disbursements deemed “illegitimate,” bypassing congressional authorization. This action, coupled with Musk’s imposition of sweeping workplace changes on federal employees, mirrors his actions at Twitter, hollowing out the bureaucracy and consolidating personal control. This constitutes a de facto coup, achieved not through traditional means but via technological manipulation and financial influence.
