Un-elected Musk: A Coup d’état in America?
Unconfirmed and unpaid, Elon Musk wields immense influence as a presidential advisor, leveraging his X platform and vast wealth to drastically reshape the federal government. Despite lacking formal authority, he’s implemented significant budget cuts and personnel changes, including a controversial attempt to dismantle USAID. This unprecedented power grab has sparked outrage from Democrats and concern over conflicts of interest, yet the Republican Congress remains largely passive. Musk’s actions raise serious questions about governmental oversight and the balance of power in the United States.
