Just a reminder that Musk’s companies have received over $15 billion from the US government — he’s happy to go after USAID but not the agencies that have been feeding him.

I’ve been saying this! He is cutting funds from areas he “feels” is inefficient and actively pulling for more funding for his contracts—how is this not the biggest conflict of interest on the planet?
Musk’s standing as the head of two companies that receive $15B from the US Govt is so far beyond a simple conflict of interest. This is blatant corruption.
My reply was serious. Specifically: if these cases are appealed all the way to SCOTUS, and they rule against the govt, and if Trump/Musk don’t comply, and POTUS tells the US Marshal Service not to enforce any contempt or other consequences (bc they are part of the Executive branch - DOJ)… 🤷♂️
