Just curious. How many billions has Musk taken from government subsidies?

Bunches of bunches .
He is providing a service our Gov can't.

It is a potential conflict of interest. If that situation arises, we will have to see what happens.

The job inherently creates a conflict of interest for nearly every person who takes it. It is no different than the potential conflict of interest law enforcement officers have when it comes to their kids committing crimes or that FBI agents have when their political opposition is in power. The nature of a lot of government jobs creates a potential conflict of interest for anyone taking the job and this is no different.

Musk has no authority. Only Trump and Congress does. He can only give his opinion. People are making something out of nothing. Because they don't want anyone looking over their shoulders.

Again......you miss the point. The government ALSO pays others to do services. What if he (Musk) determines a competitor is "wasteful" while his business isn't? Conflict of interest .

The actions exposed by DOGE will still need to be acted upon by congress. Hopeful it makes government more efficient.
