"Pushing legislative strategies to attack or block Musk's wealth isn't just healthy for our democracy, it also makes for smart politics."

It's a good read from The Intercept, and one way to fight back.

Unfortunately the Dems are absolutely spineless and will never do it.

They are too beholden to their rich donors to be of ANY good. Sadly.

We have a few heroes in the bunch, but prolly not enough to use the Filibuster against Musk's contracts.

Hilarious.... the guy we are paying out 8 million dollars a day to in Gov contracts and loans, who is not an Auditor, is Auditing US.

And he's doing what VC Venture Capitalist companies do in the Silicon Valley all the time; going in and breaking ----, and worrying about the damage he causes later. If ever.

He could have been vetted by Trump's own freaking Killer Klown Kongress in a couple of days, but NOOOOO... he has to be made an unvetted Spec Assist to the Liar in Chief, and who does all his dirty werk while the actual appointed Agency Managers... GOV EMPLOYEES report to him

And dumbass Republicans keep repeating the same stupid Red Herring..."But we need reform!".

Probably so, but not like this, and not by this Oligarch.
