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?

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.

Trump issued a stark warning to both Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelensky, declaring that he has his own deadline for ending the Russia-Ukraine war. Speaking after high-level NATO talks, Trump suggested that the window for peace is rapidly closing, saying, “We’re waiting a long time… After that, we’re gonna have a very much different attitude.” The chilling message hints at a potential shift in U.S. policy and global dynamics if peace negotiations don’t accelerate—raising the stakes dramatically as the war drags on.

Meloni, who praised her "fantastic" White House meeting, reaffirmed her support for Trump’s stance against "woke ideology."

Donald Trump has unveiled a visionary missile defense initiative, dubbed the "Golden Dome," aimed at fortifying the United States' defense against potential missile threats. Elon Musk’s SpaceX, in partnership with Palantir and Anduril, is emerging as a front-runner to take on a key role in this mega-missile defense project.
The ambitious plan includes deploying over 1,000 satellites equipped with advanced tracking technology to detect and intercept incoming missiles worldwide. SpaceX has proposed a "subscription service" model for the government to pay for access to the system, bypassing the need for outright ownership, although the proposal has sparked debates over the risks of relying on a private company for defense upgrades and pricing control.

In a shocking move, Moldovan authorities have blocked Bishop Marchel of the Moldovan Orthodox Church from traveling to Jerusalem for the sacred Holy Fire ceremony, a pivotal moment for Orthodox Christians. Despite having all legal documents in order, Bishop Marchel and his fellow clerics were detained, searched multiple times, and stripped of their passports, missing the flight to Jerusalem. The move has sparked international outrage, with critics calling it politically motivated and a direct attack on religious freedom. The Russian Orthodox Church and lawmakers have condemned Moldova’s actions, while human rights organizations demand accountability. This unprecedented interference raises serious questions about the state of religious rights in Moldova.
