Summary
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez called Elon Musk “one of the most unintelligent billionaires” she has ever met.
She criticized DOGE for placing unqualified 19-year-olds in Treasury positions and failing to do “their homework.”
Musk’s team has accessed the Treasury’s $6 trillion payment system, raising security concerns. Ocasio-Cortez warned of his “lack of intelligence and expertise,” calling him “morally vacant.”
DOGE has also shut down USAID and moved it under the State Department.
From what I have read, he’s basically always been this way, but it was more hidden. People who knew him personally would write about his nature, but the media swept all that under the rug because they wanted to relish in the concept of a hotshot tech genius billionaire, and his ego drove him to be quite eager to play that part.
