Elon Musk is reportedly taking control of the inner workings of US government agencies
People working for, or with, Elon Musk are reportedly taking over the inner workings of multiple government agencies, including the Office of Personnel
Summary
Elon Musk’s team is reportedly gaining control over key U.S. government operations.
His Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) officials have clashed with Treasury staff over access to federal payment systems, which handle $6 trillion annually.
Reports indicate Musk aides have locked civil servants out of government databases and are reviewing tech operations across agencies.
Originally intended as an external advisory body, DOGE was instead integrated into the government by Trump’s executive order, giving Musk a direct role in federal operations.

America is letting this guy put their government and economy on auto drive and it’s going to crash.
Cuck country.
Some of us know and are incredibly frustrated and disheartened by it, but we're still the minority. The state has a monopoly on violence at any meaningful scale. What are we supposed to do while we wait for the rest of the country to wake up? All we can do is talk about it and try to get them to see what's happening.
We’re in the minority because most folks aren’t bothering to pay attention.
Or they just blithely assume that it will all go back to normal in four years and choose to ignore it.
We’re all gonna suffer the consequences of the majority believing that it can’t happen here
Or they just blithely assume that it will all go back to normal in four years
Even if Trump doesn't survive until then, and even if the best possible Democrat is able to become the next president, it will take decades to clean up Trump's mess, and at least the same amount of time for the rest of the world to start trusting the USA and Americans again.
We hoped you'd have learned how much of a mistake Trump was the first time, and then you just go and make the same mistake again a few years later.
This is a mess of your own making, and you have to fix your own shit.
Until then, the rest of us will be out here using your example as a warning, and getting on with our lives.
Dude the US is never having another election again, that doesn't involve having (1) candidate on the ballot, ala Russia.
Trump barely won the popular vote. So get off your high horse.
The fact he could shit the bed so fucking hard in his first term and then still get elected is a huge indictment on the USofA.
Financially secure white guys keep telling me to hunker down until it blows over.
The 'Divide and rule' strategy worked after all. Although the government could have blocked the channels for sowing hate and fear earlier
You said it. Right on the nose. More Republicans own guns versus democrats, and most cops are Republicans, so the side with more common sense voted their gun rights away years ago and are sitting with their proverbial dicks in their hands.
Well hurry up and get it over with, I’m sick of this waiting shit. Pussy ass magas.
Who voted their gun rights away?
California, Washington, New York.
Oh yes the California that checks notes had the Black Panthers patrolling with guns because no one else could be bothered and then Regan and his cronies enacted the most extreme gun laws in the country. Those damn libs!
The conservatives are allowing an immigrant to take away American jobs lol
And other countries are going to crash after it, perhaps
Trump will grab them on the way down, there is no perhaps.
Yes you are.
