This is something that will probably be lost in the churn of the news cycle because most people don’t understand it, but it’s actually really bad for the US government.

Watch Trump give lucrative disaster response contracts to private companies owned by his biggest donors. Maybe Musk will dump a bunch of cybertrucks on the government somehow.
