How DOGE cracked Washington: A focus on arcane agencies gave Musk and his allies swift control of government nerve centers

Political appointees with deep ties to Musk now sit in key leadership positions across agencies that comprise the federal government's personnel, technology, property and acquisition operations.
The article from CNN discusses how Elon Musk's influence has permeated various levels of the U.S. government, particularly through his companies like SpaceX, Tesla, and Neuralink. It highlights how Musk's ventures have not only disrupted traditional industries but are also shaping policy, technology, and even the physical infrastructure of government operations. Key points include SpaceX's role in NASA missions, Tesla's impact on electric vehicle policies, and Neuralink's potential in future medical and military applications.

The narrative weaves through examples of how Musk's technologies are integrated into government nerve centers, from satellite communications to electric vehicle fleets, illustrating a new era where tech entrepreneurs significantly influence government operations and policy-making.
