Warren Report Alleges Musk Used Government Ties for $100 Billion Windfall
Senator Warren’s report details over 100 instances of potentially unethical or corrupt actions benefiting Elon Musk during his time in the Trump administration. These actions, spanning 15 categories, include the misuse of government resources to promote Musk’s businesses and apparent influence over administration policy towards South Africa. The report alleges conflicts of interest stemming from Musk’s ownership of Tesla and SpaceX, citing instances such as government contracts awarded to Musk’s companies and the weakening of regulatory agencies overseeing them. While not all actions constitute legal violations, the report argues that Musk consistently disregarded ethical norms and potentially violated federal law.
