The Illusion of rules and consequences.
Elon Musk has an uncanny ability to determine which American rules are real. The National Labor Relations Board, NASA, and the FAA seem powerless to enforce consequences. However, the Delaware Chancery Court remains a significant obstacle.
A Recap of Recent Events
Musk pushed out the head of the FAA, federal employees received a resignation ultimatum from an insecure server, and reports surfaced that unauthorized individuals accessed US Treasury systems. Key government offices like the Office of Personnel Management and the General Services Administration fell under his allies’ control. The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) has been shut down, with Musk claiming he “fed USAID into the wood chipper.”
A Coup Against the Administrative State?
Musk’s actions resemble a coup against the bureaucracy. The U.S. government’s system of checks and balances relies on Congress controlling spending. Initially, Trump’s administration attempted a legal freeze on spending, which courts quickly halted. Musk responded by dismantling the bureaucracy from within.
Musk’s Chaos and Its Consequences
USAID’s closure has put programs like George W. Bush’s HIV initiative, which saved millions of lives, at risk. Meanwhile, two recent plane crashes in major cities coincided with Musk’s removal of the FAA head. Understaffed air traffic control facilities faced buyouts just before these incidents.
The Twitter Playbook Goes Federal
Musk’s past behavior at Twitter—firing engineers at random, refusing to pay bills, and making impulsive decisions—suggests he may take similar actions in government. If he gains control over treasury payments, he could halt military salaries, social security checks, and government contracts at will.
Who Will Stop Him?
The CIA, FBI, and NSA appear inactive. Government attorneys threaten those who challenge Musk’s allies rather than confronting him. Unions have filed lawsuits, but their effectiveness remains uncertain. The Democratic Party is limited to issuing letters of concern.
The Endgame: A Government Built for Musk
Musk advocates for eliminating regulations entirely and may turn X into the official government communication platform. A proposed sovereign wealth fund could funnel government money into his ventures. The pattern is clear—what benefits Musk rarely benefits the public.
The Final Question: Are There Any Real Rules Left?
Musk’s history of unsafe workplaces, environmental violations, and chaotic leadership at Twitter and SpaceX suggests his unchecked influence could dismantle key government institutions. With near-total control over federal operations, the question remains—does America have any real rules left?
