Musk’s Team Given Access to U.S. Government Payment System

   Among all the nonsense and theatrical of the Trump Administration 2.0, there are real changes and this is definitively one of them. 

  How far will they be able to go down the Rabbit Hole? no one knows! But just by looking at the real numbers, Elon Musk will quickly uncover enough to indict half of Washington. It is of course unlikely that he will do it, but just this power should be enough to get a rather significant bargaining power against the deep state which, this time will have to compromise with Trump.

  Interesting days ahead?

Musk’s Team Given Access to U.S. Government Payment System

They’re going to quickly stumble on to payments for black world projects and operations and potentially not realize what they’re looking at. It’s hard to imagine that the actual deep state would allow anyone to start pulling on those threads…

My guess is that we’ll hear more about things like Social Security fraud and less about whatever it is that LockheedMartin actually did with over $61 billion just in 2023.

Billionaire Elon Musk and his government efficiency team have been given access to the U.S. Treasury Department’s payment system, resolving a days-long standoff, the New York Times reported on Saturday.

Musk, who chairs the newly-created Department of Government Efficiency, has been tasked by President Donald Trump to identify fraud and waste in the government and had sought access to the system Treasury uses to dole out federal funds.

His efforts were resisted by a career Treasury official, David Lebryk, who was placed on leave this week and then retired. On Friday, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent gave Musk’s team access, the Times reported.

The system sends out more than $6 trillion per year in payments on behalf of federal agencies and contains the personal information of millions of Americans who receive Social Security payments, tax refunds and other monies from the government.
