Elon Musk’s Sudden 'Grip' on U.S Govt. –Is Trump Allowing Private Billionaire to Overthrow Democracy

Elon Musk, the tech billionaire behind Tesla and SpaceX, has made waves in Washington D.C. after assuming control over vast swaths of the U.S. government. Since President Donald Trump’s inauguration, Musk has upended the federal bureaucracy, with critics accusing him of orchestrating a “plutocratic coup.” His unprecedented actions include halting major federal programs, gaining access to sensitive information, and even controlling the U.S. payment system. Musk’s growing influence has sparked concerns of a constitutional crisis, with many questioning the implications for democracy and government accountability. Is this just another eccentric move from the world's richest man, or is there a more dangerous agenda at play? #ElonMusk #TrumpAdministration #GovernmentControl #USPolitics #PlutocraticCoup #BillionaireInfluence #USGovernment #ConstitutionalCrisis #TechBillionaire #PowerShift Also Read US Embassy On Deportation Of Undocumented Indians: 'Illegal Migration Is Not Worth It' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-embassy-on-deportation-of-undocumented-indians-illegal-migration-is-not-worth-it-4061811.html?ref=DMDesc China Responds To Trump In Kind, Imposes 15% Tariff On Coal, LNG Imports From US :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/china-responds-to-trump-in-kind-imposes-15-tariff-on-coal-lng-imports-from-us-4061693.html?ref=DMDesc Trump's Foreign Aid Freeze Could Prove To Be Boon For World's Authoritarian Strongmen :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trumps-foreign-aid-freeze-could-prove-to-be-boon-for-worlds-authoritarian-strongmen-4061689.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.274~ED.194~HT.334~
