Democrats are plotting to weaponize the federal government against Elon Musk

Democrats are plotting to weaponize the federal government against Elon Musk if they win back the House or Senate next month. …

According to a Politico report published Tuesday, senior Democrats have assembled a sprawling list of congressional investigations targeting Musk and his businesses, and the list keeps growing. Musk is the world’s richest man and the GOP’s biggest donor, and that second detail is the only reason Democrats are going after him. Several committees are already weighing how to target him and his companies.

This is a huge deal. Democrats haven’t won anything yet, and they’re already drawing up an enemies list. We knew they were going to go after Trump with another never-ending quest to find something they can claim is a crime so they can put the country through another bogus impeachment. But this is even worse ….

They aren’t campaigning on lower prices, safer streets, or a secure border. Their pitch to voters boils down to handing them subpoena power so they can punish a private citizen who supports Trump and the GOP. …

For years, Democrats have used the machinery of government as a club against anyone who crosses them. They hauled Trump into courtrooms across the country, and they treated anyone who stood with him as an accessory to whatever fantasy crime they imagine Trump committed. Most of their victims either folded or went broke defending themselves.

This time, the target has the money, the platform, and the backbone to hit back harder. Democrats picked the wrong guy.

A key part of their rage at Musk traces to his time at the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), where he went after government waste that enriched their allies. Democrats want to dig into Musk’s time running DOGE last year, including eliminating more than 250,000 federal jobs, withholding money Congress had approved, and accessing sensitive government data. Democrats can’t forgive Musk for exposing how bloated and wasteful their beloved bureaucracy had become.

Elon might already be in jail if Kamala Harris had been elected (by Western Lensman)

On the Bulwak podcast, Kara Swisher [prominent American technology journalist, podcaster, and editor-at-large at New York Magazine] says Elon might already be in jail under Kamala Harris, and “he knows what’s coming for him.”

Another one to put in the “what Democrats plan to do if they take power” file:

“If Donald Trump loses the House and the Senate, I would worry. I’d be worried if I were him. So they’re going to start investigating again. You think he’s not on the list? He’s at the top of that list.”
