Elon Musk is only one week into his role in President Donald Trump’s new administration, but the US federal government is already rolling out the Twitter playbook to manage its spending and personnel.

Elon Musk is being sued by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission over his 2022 Twitter takeover. The agency alleges that the billionaire failed to disclose his ownership of Twitter stock in a timely manner, saving himself at least $150 million “at the expense of shareholders.”

After boosting Donld Trump through extreme sycophancy, turning Twitter into the red-pilled X, and dousing the once-and-future president with $239 million in campaign contributions, Musk earned himself a starring role in Trump’s second administration. But he didn’t want to be a secretary of anything; rather, he wanted DOGE.
