YouTube Description
as posted by the channelDemocratic lawmakers and government watchdog groups are pledging to fight back against Elon Musk’s takeover of the federal government's payment system, which they say may be the biggest privacy and security breach in American history.
"If we were watching this happen in Venezuela or Malawi and we saw a billionaire seize the money supply and the checkbook of the government, we would call it a coup," said Lindsay Owens, executive director of the Groundwork Collaborative economic policy group and a former Senate senior economic policy advisor.
Musk, the world's wealthiest person, is an unpaid advisor to President Donald Trump. Musk's Department of Government Efficiency has been tasked with finding ways to cut spending and regulations.
