No Question Musk is unqualified these decisions and has no legal authority. And while Congress is unwilling to act on its own power, the executive is far exceeding its own authority in how it is freezing funds, ignoring due process of organizations who legally received federal
Funds.
And Musk in his position has a clear conflict of interest to be making decisions or even recommendations on gutting federal agencies when he himself is a contractor benefitting from taxpayer funds and is likely to benefit more from his insider position
DOGE AINT THE ANSWER
Re: I think that everyone has forgotten that Bill Clinton
Clinton, Bush 2, Obama twice, Trump1, Biden, Trump 2 all campaigned on reining in the "deep state" and getting spending under control. None of them prior to Trump 2 tried doing anything even similar to DOGE, and nothing that was done by the first 7 had any effect on the run away spending, and the unfettered give away programs that did nothing to better the lives of the taxpayers. Is the DOGE way the only way or the right way to correct the long term spending maladies? I won't say it is the worker friendly way or the proper way proper way, but I will say it is the only way since the Gipper was in the chair that has even come close to rendering the promised results.

To call Trump or. Musk unqualified is beyond laughable. The taxpayer funded Deep State’s days are over. The Taxpayer funded war in Ukraine will soon be over.
