Speculation of Tesla CEO’s possible departure comes as his influence in the administration appears to wane
Elon Musk is reportedly set to leave his government role because he’s tired of the what he sees as a litany of vicious and unethical attacks from the left, according to a report from The Washington Post.
It remains unclear when Musk will depart as head of DOGE; his special government employee status will expire at the end of next month. A person familiar with his thinking told The Post that Musk thinks that his work at DOGE won’t be diminished because of his departure, noting that staffers have already established themselves across a slew of federal agencies.
But speculation of Musk’s possible departure comes as his influence in the administration appears to wane. The New York Times reported last week that the acting commissioner of the IRS was being replaced after Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent complained that Musk had his preferred candidate installed without Bessent’s support. Musk has also annoyed other cabinet members by failing to coordinate with them in cost-cutting moves.
Until Trump and friends give him inside trading advice, they will. (Allegedly)
They already did de facto insider trading advice when the Mango Mussolini posted “this is a great time to buy” on Truth Social hours before pausing his stupid tariffs.
That cesspit is TECHNICALLY publicly available, but apart from a few journalists with the shittiest assignment ever, the only people likely to be there at 9:37am are members of his cult and adjacent sickos.
Besides, even if it’s not insider trading, it’s one of the most blatant examples of deliberate market manipulation ever, which is also illegal.
Insider traders are picking the bones of the 401K folks. Best move you money into an IRA where you can go with the flow, as in buy in low the sell on the manipulated highs.
Plus there’s the possible benefit of Northern Ireland getting to rejoin the EU 😉
