Elon Musk Supports Trump’s Power to Fire Executive Officials, Backing Mike Lee’s Suggestion

Elon Musk has backed the idea that President-elect Donald Trump should have the authority to fire any official in the executive branch, excluding the vice president.

This notion was voiced by Utah Senator Mike Lee, who believes the president should be able to remove any employee at any time for any reason.

The discussion arose amidst reports of Trump's plans to make unconventional personnel changes, including firing officials with fixed terms like the FBI Director and IRS Commissioner, positions that traditionally remain unchanged during transitions.

Experts note that while uncommon, the president holds the legal power to make such changes.

SHOCKING VIDEO: Musk Vs Scott Bessent 'Shouting Match' At White House Over IRS Creates Ruckus

Elon Musk and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent got into a heated shouting match inside the White House over who should lead the IRS. Musk backed Gary Shapley, while Bessent pushed for his deputy Michael Faulkender. The argument—filled with expletives and accusations—erupted near President Trump and Italian PM Giorgia Meloni. Musk even accused Bessent of being a “Soros agent.” Days later, Bessent’s pick won out. White House aides say tensions like this aren’t unusual, but the clash exposes deep divisions within Trump’s economic inner circle. #ElonMusk #ScottBessent #IRS #WhiteHouse #TrumpAdministration #GaryShapley #MichaelFaulkender #PoliticalDrama #MuskVsBessent #TreasuryClash #SorosAgent #IRSLeadership #EconomicPolicy #TrumpNews #BreakingNews #PowerStruggle #GiorgiaMeloni #USPolitics #ShoutingMatch #TreasuryDepartment #WhiteHouseDrama #TrumpInnerCircle #WashingtonClash #PolicyTensions #MuskExplodes #IRSReform #HighStakesPolitics #VerbalShowdown #TrumpTeam #BehindClosedDoors Also Read Elon Musk To Visit India Later This Year, Calls Talk With PM Modi 'An Honour' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/elon-musk-to-visit-india-later-this-year-calls-talk-with-pm-modi-an-honour-4128177.html?ref=DMDesc Modi and Musk Discuss Collaboration In Technology :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/modi-and-musk-discuss-collaboration-in-technology-4127313.html?ref=DMDesc US President Trump Is Now A Comic Book Villain In Canada, Elon Musk Is His Sidekick :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-trump-is-now-a-comic-book-villain-in-canada-elon-musk-is-his-sidekick-4120951.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~GR.124~

A former U.S. Army analyst, 25-year-old Korbein Schultz, has been sentenced to 7 years in prison for leaking top-secret military information to a contact he believed was linked to the Chinese government. Schultz admitted to selling sensitive data from 2022 to 2024—including info on U.S. troop movements, missile systems, and lessons from Ukraine—for $42,000. The case raises serious national security concerns, with leaked documents also covering Taiwan and NATO strategy. Schultz even tried to recruit others.

Trump Set To Declassify MLK Files Next | FBI & CIA SECRETS On MLK, JFK, RFK Could Soon Go Public [Video]

Trump Set To Declassify MLK Files Next | FBI & CIA SECRETS On MLK, JFK, RFK Could Soon Go Public

President Trump’s Executive Order 14176 has declassified records tied to the assassinations of JFK, RFK, and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. But only JFK’s files have been released so far. As speculation grows around the still-sealed MLK documents, historians and King’s family fear an orchestrated smear campaign under the guise of transparency. The files, linked to COINTELPRO-era surveillance, may contain damaging, decontextualized material. Scholars warn the release could distort public memory and weaponize intelligence files from a time when the FBI sought to discredit civil rights leaders. #MLK #Trump #Declassification #COINTELPRO #CivilRights #MLKFiles #JFKFiles #RFKFiles #TransparencyOrSmear #HistoricalRecords #FBIHistory #CIAFiles #TrumpOrder #MartinLutherKingJr #BlackHistory #TruthAndTransparency #ExecutiveOrder #MLKLegacy #Activism #MLKSurveillance #JFKAssassination #RFKAssassination #PoliticalHistory #MLKFamily #FBIvsMLK #HistoricalSmear #Trump2025 #IntelligenceFiles #COINTELPROFiles #TruthUnderThreat #PublicRecords Also Read US President Donald Trump, Russia's Vladimir Putin Condemned Pahalgam Terrorist Attack, Call It A Brutal Crime :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-donald-trump-russias-vladimir-putin-condemned-pahalgam-terrorist-attack-call-it-a-br-4131695.html?ref=DMDesc Harvard Sues Donald Trump Administration Over Cut In US Federal Funding :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/harvard-sues-donald-trump-administration-over-cut-in-us-federal-funding-4130575.html?ref=DMDesc US Will Drop Ukraine-Russia Peace Efforts If No Progress Within Days: Marco Rubio :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-will-drop-ukraine-russia-peace-efforts-if-no-progress-within-days-marco-rubio-4127371.html?ref=DMDesc
