Elon Musk, an unelected “special government employee” and the world’s richest person, is operating with autonomy that “almost no one can control” as he oversees the Department of Government Efficiency, a Trump administration official told The New York Times.
Musk, the world’s richest man, and his team at DOGE have already acquired classified documents, gained access to financial systems with sensitive personal information and conducted “aggressive incursions” into half a dozen federal agencies during the first weeks of Donald Trump’s presidency, the Times reported.
