On top of all the other things to say (he doesn't have authority, the framing here is abysmal, DOGE doesn't have transition power), it's probably worth codifying the story of how Elon's buddies took out SVB then begged for (and got) a bailout.
Elon Musk called Wednesday for the elimination of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, one of the nation’s most powerful watchdog agencies, signaling it could be scrapped as part of a planned review of government spending ordered by President-elect Donald Trump.
Elon Musk wants to ‘delete’ federal financial watchdog as ‘DOGE’ begins work
“Delete CFPB,” the billionaire tech executive running the “Department of Government Efficiency” said in an early-morning post on X.

Once incredibly wealthy following a very successful career

Now losing everything because of his conduct following the president elect

OMG 🤣🤣🤣

Watch Eric Trump pearl-clutch as he’s informed that Boris Epshteyn has been selling access to Trump and future government contracts—AKA pay-to-play.

And Nicolle Wallace’s reaction—is all of us.

Help the most vulnerable. Children and the elderly.

Journal events. Guard it.

Some may think I'm overreacting.. that's fine.
I happen to think I'm not.
Watch and learn the current issues around the globe.
None of what's happening will be easy.

My morning run, someone drove by in a beat up early 80s Firebird, MAGA hat and listening to Ice Ice Baby. Probably a virgin.

Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens.

Don’t think it won’t happen again when they come for the “undocumented.”
