Elon Musk's Government Legacy Was Enacting Project 2025. His Ties Go Back Years.

_{//politics-government.news-articles.net/content/ .. nacting-project-2025-his-ties-go-back-years.html}
^{Published in Politics and Government on Saturday, May 31st 2025 at 8:40 GMT by DeSmog}

The billionaire rescued the right-wing plan to dismantle the government while at its most toxic moment. Enacting its vision at DOGE, Musk was Trump's enabler and fall guy.

Elon Musk's involvement with Project 2025, a controversial initiative aimed at reshaping the U.S. government, has deep roots that trace back years, according to a detailed report by DeSmog published on May 30, 2025. The article outlines how Musk's ties to the project's architects and his public endorsements have played a significant role in its development and potential implementation. Project 2025, spearheaded by conservative think tanks, seeks to drastically alter federal agencies, environmental regulations, and energy policies, aligning them more closely with free-market principles. Musk's influence is seen as pivotal, given his status as a tech mogul and his previous interactions with key figures behind the project. The report also delves into the broader implications of Musk's legacy, suggesting that his support for Project 2025 could have lasting effects on government operations and policy-making.
