Elon Musk calls to "delete entire agencies" from federal government
Source: Associated Press
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) -- Elon Musk called on Thursday for the United States to "delete entire agencies" from the federal government as part of his push under President Donald Trump to radically cut spending and restructure its priorities.
Musk offered a wide-ranging survey via a videocall to the World Governments Summit in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, of what he described as the priorities of the Trump administration interspersed with multiple references to "thermonuclear warfare" and the possible dangers of artificial intelligence.

"I think we do need to delete entire agencies as opposed to leave a lot of them behind," Musk said. "If we don't remove the roots of the weed, then it's easy for the weed to grow back."

"If hypothetically, AI is designed for DEI, you know, diversity at all costs, it could decide that there's too many men in power and execute them," Musk said.

Musk making overseas video conferences in the missile of the night to foreigners to tell them how he's destroying the U.S.
and such wierd comments!
Isn't that treason?
And if Musk is saying DEI is bad, because of AI figures out there are too many white males running things, it's going to equalize by executing people. THINK ABOUT WHAT HE JUST SAID!
Its worth reading the whole article.

I want to know what he has had access to? More and more info keeps coming out about the "programs" they had added to the system.
I called my Attorney General's office, and am waiting for a call back. I want an IT audit to be part of the lawsuit brought by the 19 AG's.

(81,260 posts)One of my family members had a federal classified job, the work setting was a locked metal room.
All the employees had had to have purses/bags
checked through out the day and a guard had to go with them to the restroom
and watch them pee or whatever.
Showing up to work tanked up on drugs would probably have gotten them arrested.

All he wants to do is play president but not do any of the actual work.
He wants to give rambling speeches, cut ribbons and steal money.
He has given an unelected megalomaniac all the power he can grab to destroy the US and turn it into his own little play thing
Musk is not only a racist but he hates anyone that this not wealthy. Hes on a mission to crush this nation out of some bizarre need to fulfill

And to the question about Vance running for president in 4 years, his answer was NO (like he is convinced there won't be any elections for president anymore).
So F-Elon told him what he wanted to hear?
His wet dream of being Dicktraitor for life like Xi in China will come true????

The People don't seem to have any protection from the president and his hatchet man. This is why we have the second amendment to protect us against a rouge government. But we forgot to buy guns. The people who did buy them are all for it. It looks completely hopeless. 🥹😢 How does this end?

(49,384 posts)He has no respect for how the Constitution works. At all.
And he definitely does not have any intention abiding by any of it.
If Republicans had any integrity at all, they'd toss him out of the country
or deposit him on a desolate rock in the middle of a violent sea.

Disclaimer: I am not and have never been a federal employee. I just can't believe that they are getting away with trash talking a not insignificant number of the citizens of this country. And it's spreading as his supporters pick up the nastiness and start quoting it everywhere.

(7,790 posts)number of them in business? Give me a freaking break! Musk has caught trump's mental illness and added it on to his own. If anyone else in government had talked like this, to a world body, in the middle of the night, he'd have been out of job - fired or impeached the next day. We didn't used to put up with crap like this. We should put an end to it now and quickly before it gets even worse. What in the heck did he say about nukes? Was he threatening to use them unless the world went along with trump's agenda? I think trump has a new "hit man" in his life.

He needs to be stopped.
Many agencies help support state economies.

(58 posts)I dislike musk as much as everyone but saying "How much does his wasteful Space X get from the government?" is just ridiculous.
" SpaceXs Falcon 9 rocket launches have been advertised at around $62 million per launch, while larger rockets like the Falcon Heavy can cost upwards of $90 million per launch. On the higher end, NASAs Space Launch System (SLS) is estimated to cost over $2 billion per launch."

(730 posts)Well then that makes it ok. Considering that both the cost of the falcon heavy and falcon 9 are paid to musk... Now if musk is so innocent about government spending then why is he trying to hide his next governmental scam (https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2025/feb/13/us-department-of-state-plans-to-spend-400m-on-tesla-armoured-vehicles-elon-musk)? musk believes in money for me and not for you. So, quit trying to defend him. musk is a white supremist who has learned to play the governmental welfare game he got 10.7billion by the government climate programs, he also got 22 billion for the falcon series ships. He learned that if he acts like a good guy in front of the camera and tells you how great his ideas are. The only thing he doesn't tell you is that YOU ARE PAYING FOR IT. Again money for me and not for you and don't think he isn't for the billionaires tax breaks. Money for me and not for you...
