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.

      Yes, the armed snipers in prison towers definitely wouldn’t stop people.

        I took “free Luigi” to suggest they need Luigi to kill Elon, but they don’t need Luigi… to kill Elon.

          I do not see how “free Luigi” followed by the response of “free him yourself” means “go kill Elon yourself.” Wouldn’t that be “free Elon?”

          People didn’t say “free Mumia” and “free Leonard Peltier” because they wanted them to stay imprisoned.
