President Donald Trump has given Elon Musk sweeping authority to overhaul the U.S. government bureaucracy and its operations around the globe.
ProPublica confirmed the identities and roles of more than 20 key people affiliated with Musk.
@ProPublica Would be real terrible for people to know the names and identities of the fascists enshitifying the government 
Definitely don't spread these names and definitely don't expose them.
@ProPublica the government agentcy of overlapping relations and corruption, at least they make it feel that way!
@ProPublica
List the names in this article, and their deeds. In the future, when democracy and righteousness return to the U.S., and the country is free again, these people have to be called to justice: Why did you destroy healthtcare? Why did you destroy free education? Why did you destroy workers safety?
"Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, has been unleashed on federal agencies."

I greatly admire your work, ProPublica, & I've set up a recurring donation, however...
I wish you & other #news orgs would stop describing #ElonMusk as "the world's richest man" and would instead refer to him as a South African immigrant, working in the US government illegally.
Both are accurate descriptions, but one makes him look like a powerful hero and the other... does not.
@ProPublica Wonder when he'll actively start trying to edge Donny out. I guess he has. But then other GOPpers will start trying to clip his wings so _they_ can edge in.
The chum is in the water.
@ProPublica Taking part in a coup against the US government is treason. Elon Musk and anyone who aids him, will be tried and punished.
@ProPublica TRUMP CANNOT GIVE ELON AUTHORITY. CONGRESS HAS THAT POWER NOT THE PRESIDENT!!!
DOGE AND MUSK HAVE NO AUTHORITY TO DO ANYTHING!!!
THIS IS ALL ILLEGAL!!!
@ProPublica From what I've read, Musk has already operated with a sort of goon squad of advisers, body guards, etc. that follow him around to all the companies he is involved in. They have wide privilege within them. His current behavior fits that pattern, only now he is operating in a public sphere, with a totally different set of rules and laws.
