Hysterical Harpies Hollering About Elon Musk’s Access to Government Docs Should Make You Laugh

The man who brought you Tesla, StarLink, SpaceX, Neuralink, X.com, and other norm-breaking companies is now the target of screeching, hysterical harpies hyping the Democrat narrative that Elon Musk has no right to put eyes on any government documents. Sure, ladies, sure. Head pat. 

They accuse Elon Musk of “hacking” government documents. They accuse him of stealing your social security number from the IRS. Indeed, the world’s richest man is “getting access to the sensitive federal payment system!” Musk, who’s working for free to save the government money, is going to steal your money! “Elon Musk is rooting around highly sensitive data, and he might not even have been properly vetted,” they fretted.

And he’s unelected to boot. 

I can understand that an unelected bureaucrat’s finger in the government pie might be worrisome. I worried a lot when the elected Barack Obama put organizations out of business that dared call for the end of government profligacy back in 2012. I worried when the elected Joe Biden hired 87,000 unelected IRS police armed with guns to collect taxes. 

But how galling is it that an unelected person — an unvetted billionaire! — saves the American public money? How dare he pull the nation from the brink of insolvency and stop in its tracks the forever inflation caused by the unelected Cloward Piven-inspired spending by Dementia Joe’s unelected presidential stand-ins. 

So concerned with the idea that Elon Musk is getting a look at sensitive government documents that Democrats that Nancy Pelosi and her flying monkeys have proposed a bill they call “The Taxpayer Data Protection Act.” It will “prevent Elon Musk and his minions from accessing the private data of everyday Americans to serve their own interests” and “stop people with conflicts of interest or without a security clearance from accessing the highly sensitive Treasury Department payment system.” This, of course, is according to the woman whose insider information has turned her from a thousandaire to a multimillionaire over the decades for being a “public servant.” 

And, as usual, Nancy’s wrong. She and her fellow screamers can harp and howl at the moon, but chances are that Elon Musk isn’t looking at anyone’s private information — and regarding a security clearance? Well, has she stopped to smell herself?

WSJ Reporter Who Doxxed, Tried to Cancel, Musk DOGE Team Member was Former State Dept, USAID, Worker

Marko Elez is a 25 year old who has the trust and support of the world’s richest man, Elon Musk to help root out problems as part of the Department of Government Efficiency, aka “DOGE.”

He and others of the DOGE team were doxxed several days ago in an article in Wired, along with other articles and posts on X.

Elez was assisting Musk in his Trump-led efforts to root out fraud, waste and abuse from America’s government, starting with the United States Agency for International Development “USAID”, The State Department, Treasury Department, and other agencies.

And then the mainstream media today, led by reporter Katherine Long at the Wall Street Journal, decided to try and ‘cancel’ Elez by digging up controversial tweets made a few years ago in this article, titled “DOGE Staffer Resigns Over Racist Posts.”

DOJ Launches Inquiry Into “Individuals and Networks Stealing Government Property” After Referral by Elon Musk’s DOGE Team

Here we go!

The Justice Department will launch an inquiry into the individuals and networks stealing government property and threatening government employees.

Ed Martin, the Acting US Attorney for DC, sent Elon Musk a letter informing him that he will be launching an inquiry after a referral from DOGE.

“Thank you for the referral of individuals and networks who appear to be stealing government property and/or threatening government employees. After your referral, as is my practice, I will begin an inquiry,” Ed Martin wrote in a letter to Elon Musk.

Earlier this week Ed Martin announced his office would be charging and arresting individuals who threatened Elon Musk’s DOGE team.

Ed Martin did not name any names as he announced that arrests and charges were coming. It is unclear which laws were violated.

“Our initial review of the evidence presented to us indicates that certain individuals and/or groups have committed acts that appear to violate the law in targeting DOGE employees,” Ed Martin said.

“We are in contact with the FBI and other law-enforcement partners to proceed rapidly. We also have our prosecutors preparing,” Ed Martin added.

Trump Directs Elon Musk’s DOGE Team to Conduct Comprehensive Audit of Pentagon

President Donald Trump revealed that he has directed Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to conduct a comprehensive audit of the Pentagon’s funding.

During a press conference with Japan’s prime minister, when asked by a reporter about directives related to Pentagon budget reviews, Trump confirmed his decision.

“Yes, I have [directed Musk to review] Pentagon, Education, just about everything,” Trump said.

Trump continued, “We’re going to go through everything, just as it was so bad with what we just went through with this horrible situation [with USAID]. I guess 97% of the people have been dismissed. It was very, very unfortunate. You’re not going to find anything like that, but you’re going to find a lot.”

It can be recalled that acting USAID Director and Secretary of State Marco Rubio is reportedly downsizing the bureaucratic agency, retaining only 294 of the agency’s 14,000 employees worldwide. This move cuts 97% of USAID’s staff.

“I’ve instructed him to go check the Pentagon, which is the military. Sadly, you’ll find some things that are pretty bad. But I don’t think, proportionately, you’re going to see anything like we just saw,” Trump said.

Slashing Foreign Aid Redux

Hot damn!

Not only has Elon Musk brought the hammer down on the entirety of the Deep State’s foreign aid boondoggles, but his sleuths have apparently also uncovered one of the Swamp’s most pernicious artifices. To wit, numerous Federal agencies, including USAID, purchase a shit-ton of expensive subscriptions from beltway megaphones like Politico, which by pure happenstance, of course, favor their agency subscribers with a steady patter of “news” that tracks right down the UniParty fairway.

And we aren’t talking chump change. These “subscriptions” for the “pro” version of various Politico newsletters, for instance, come at $3,000 to $24,000 a pop. Since two of the latter were purchased by the climate crisis bureau over at USAID you have to wonder what that had to do with feeding the world’s starving masses or why USAID bureaucrats needed high-priced climate policy gossip when their inboxes were already flooded with free climate change propaganda from dozens of other Federal agencies, Federally-funded think tanks, NGOs and anti-fossil fuel activists.

As it happened, the tab across all Federal agencies just for the various Politico publications accumulated to $8.2 million over the past nine years according to USASpending.gov. Since most of that cash flow was due to purchase of the high-price “pro” versions, we can only imagine the “deep” insights that must be contained in the “Politico Pro Analysis” at $5,000 per year. Well, at least compared to the regular political gossip/news contained in the standard “Politico” subscription at $200 per year that a smattering of political junkies out in Flyover America apparently purchase.

Liz Cheney Lashes Out After Elon Musk Exposes Her USAID Ties — Says He Can’t Understand American History Because He’s South African

Liz Cheney is having a hard time of it lately.

The disgraced former Congresswoman, who wagered her entire political career on trying to defeat Donald Trump and lost spectacularly, lashed out at Elon Musk after he spoke out on her past links to USAID.

Musk, who is heading up the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), has recommended the gutting of the U.S. Agency for International Development and described it as a “criminal” organization involved in money laundering and wasting taxpayer dollars.

Posting on the X platform that he owns, Musk responded to a report by analyst Mike Benz that Liz Cheney had begun her political career at USAID.

Musk’s comment was picked up by Cheney, who used it as an opportunity to mock the fact that despite being a citizen, Musk was born and raised in South Africa.

“Damn right, @Elon. I’m proud of what America did to win the Cold War, defeat Soviet communism, and defend democracy,” she wrote.

“Our nation stood for freedom. You may be unfamiliar with that part of our history since you weren’t yet an American citizen.”

Democrat Dave Min Who Was Arrested for Drunk Driving in 2023, Calls Elon Musk a Criminal – Then Demands His Imprisonment

Democrats held a rally on Tuesday in front of the US Treasury Building in Washington DC.

Democrats are very upset with President Trump and his DOGE Committee that is cracking down on government fraud and waste. Democrats don’t want Elon and DOGE to investigate US government wasteful spending for some reason.

At one point during their protest Rep. Dave Min (D-CA) called Elon Musk a criminal. Then he called to throw Musk in prison.

This is your Democrat Party – cheaters and tyrants. If you cross them and expose fraud, they want you jailed!

Rep. Dave Min: He has broken the law time and time again. This cannot stand. He must be held accountable. He must be made to pay. We must enforce the law.

Crowd: “Lock him up!… Lock him up!… Lock him up!”

Dave Min may want to lawyer up after his bogus attacks on Elon. This may now end well for Dave.

Bill Gates Says ‘Humans Won’t Be Needed For Most Things’

Bill Gates says that in the near future humans won’t be needed for “most things” thanks to AI, but will still be required for the purposes of entertainment.

Gates made the comments during an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon to promote his new book.

Fallon asked Gates whether AI was going to “take over” and what the downsides and benefits of it were.

Gates explained that “intelligence is rare,” but that artificial intelligence will start to replace great teachers and doctors over the course of the next decade.

The Microsoft founder went on to suggest that many types of jobs will be replaced and that people could only end up working two or three days a week.

“This is a bit scary, it’s completely new territory,” he added.
