Over the years, Elon Musk and his businesses have received at least $38 billion in government contracts, loans, subsidies and tax credits, often at critical moments, a Post analysis has found, helping seed the growth that has made him the world’s richest person.
Ah, so that's who the scapegoat is.
I'm glad a month in after all these cuts they finally figured out who was in charge.
"waste, fraud and abuse" is the battle cry of crooked billionaires and trumpy simps who want to corrupt the government
For the record: the claims of waste and abuse have one purpose, privatization of government services, redirecting tax dollars to vastly more expensive and less effective corporations, the ones with monumental CEO pay and, yep, waste, fraud, and abuse.A huge reason why privatizing government services is bad: you can't FOIA government contracts. It all becomes a black box once that money goes to the contractors, leading to waste fraud and abuse.
Yeah but they're billionaires!! They don't need money they're doing this to help America!
Solid investment by the government considering SpaceX alone has saved the government more than given to all Musk companies through contracts/loans/subsidies/tax credits combined. On top of that the government's investment in Tesla helped revolutionize the EV market and force the entire auto industry to make more sustainable vehicles.
Do you have a graph breaking down contracts/loans/subsidies/tax credits?
Rofl "a guy told me"
Gullible tool
Musk: I should say we will make mistakes. We won't be perfect. But when we make a mistake we'll fix it quickly. So for example with USAID, one of the things we accidentally canceled briefly was Ebola prevention.
motion for a stay slapped down
Trumplandia will refuse to comply with judicial orders, and it'll be appealed
Trump's contempt for the law is monumental

If true, yeah that's fraud.
But Trump can do whatever he wants thanks to the SC
Joel Sercel is the CEO of TransAstra you stupid . His company actively works with United States Space Force and has multiple contracts with them. He has worked with NASA for 10 years and has contracts with them as well. The savings of SpaceX rockets compared to NASA's cost if they were to do it are well do ented.

You are such a stupid ing idiot. Slapping you around is getting boring![]()
Doesn't change "a guy told me" still being hilarious.
let us know when you figure out the legal definition of conflict of interest. Until then we'll all just keep tossing lols your way.
El0n Musk just attended Trump's cabinet meeting
https://apnews.com/article/elon-musk...c2971168e2921fA satellite company owned by Elon Musk has the inside track to potentially take over a large federal contract to modernize the nation’s air traffic communications system.
Equipment from Musk’s Starlink has been installed in Federal Aviation Administration facilities as a prelude to a takeover of a $2 billion contract held by Verizon, according to government employees, contractors and people familiar with the work.
Musk said that the network used by air traffic controllers is aging and requires drastic and quick action to modernize it.
“The Verizon system is not working and so is putting air travelers at serious risk,” Musk on Monday posted on X, the social media site he has owned since 2022.
The emergence of Starlink as a potential replacement for the Verizon-led effort underscores the extraordinary conflicts of interest inherent in Musk’s position as both a senior White House adviser to President Donald Trump and a business mogul in charge of a sprawling array of companies. It is not clear what role Musk might be playing in helping Starlink parent company SpaceX win such business.
“There’s very limited transparency,” said Jessica Tillipman, a contracting law expert at George Washington University. Referring to Musk, she said: “Without that transparency, we have no idea how much non-public information he has access to or what role he’s playing in what contracts are being awarded.”
Is Elon going to "audit" the departments which regulate Elon's businesses and those for which Elon's companies have contracts?
, he's already firing the regulators
Considering his qualifications, knowledge of space travel/exploration costs, and direct work/personal connections with USSF and NASA, what is hilarious about it?
He knew a guy!
Now ramble on some more in a manner that nobody cares about that his word should mean something.
Why can't he do simple math?
Or is he just lying about the alleged savings?
It's one or the other.
The savings of SpaceX sending rockets to space compared to the cost of NASA doing it are well do ented.

Again, what is hilarious?
