US Senator Warren says Trump needs to hold Musk to ethics standards

U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren has asked Donald Trump’s transition team to hold Elon Musk to the same ethics standards as other transition members, putting oversight of the unusually powerful presidential adviser in the spotlight.    

The billionaire CEO of Tesla and rocket company SpaceX, as well as the owner of social media platform X, has had an increasingly close relationship with Republican Trump since he endorsed him in July. Musk spent over a quarter billion dollars to help elect Trump, and also owns interests in cryptocurrency and other ventures.

“Mr. Musk’s substantial private interests present a massive conflict of interest with the role he has taken on as your ‘unofficial co-president,'” Warren said in a letter to the Trump transition team made public by her office on Tuesday. “Currently, the American public has no way of knowing whether the advice that he is whispering to you in secret is good for the country – or merely good for his own bottom line.” (cont. below)

The Coming War Against Elon Musk (...and why his fight is your fight) [sponsor]
The man behind the most revolutionary inventions in modern history has been openly talking about a $500 billion energy grid that the U.S. government has kept hidden for 40 years. In doing so, he's helped unleash an opportunity that could create trillions of dollars in new wealth for everyday Americans. Watch now.   

Musk’s role as the co-chair of a newly created Trump advisory body that is not part of the U.S. government, the “Department of Government Efficiency,” means that he is not a government employee, Warren noted, “but the conflicts he faces are enormous and the need for him to be subject to similar ethics standards is obvious.” 

The Trump transition team had no immediate comment. 

Asked about Musk’s potential conflicts, Trump told Time magazine in an interview published on Dec. 12: “I think that Elon puts the country long before his company.”

Past presidents have often enlisted industrialists for efficiency commissions, Danielle Brian, executive director of the watchdog Project on Government Oversight, told Reuters. 

A key difference in this case is the industries Musk is invested in are in their early stages, Brian said, meaning decisions made by regulators whom Trump appoints are potentially going to transform the sectors they are in, and could put Musk’s specific companies at an advantage.          

Trump’s transition team issued an ethics pledge in November that promises members “will avoid both actual and apparent conflicts of interest,” and that they “may not participate in any particular Transition matter which to their knowledge may directly conflict with a financial interest of theirs … or other individual or organization with which they have a business or close personal relationship.” (cont. below)

Billionaires Scrambling for These Stocks [sponsor]
Billionaires and other rich investors have been hoarding shares of certain stocks in the market. These stocks are poised to spring up upward because of a once-every-25-years event. This will happen no matter who wins the Presidential Election... And wealthy investors are already positioning themselves to profit from it. Click here to see proof that this historic stock market shift is coming.

Musk’s task force aims for a sweeping overhaul of the U.S. government, which spent $6.8 trillion in the most recent fiscal year, and has threatened to fire thousands of government workers.   

Among other regulatory changes, the Trump transition team wants the incoming administration to drop a car-crash reporting requirement opposed by Musk’s electric vehicle company, Tesla, Reuters reported last week. 

Walter Shaub, the former director of the Office of Government Ethics, told Reuters that he felt Musk’s role could endanger national security and public safety. The OGE is tasked with overseeing ethics standards in the executive branch.

Shaub resigned in July 2017, months before his term was supposed to end, after clashes with Trump’s first administration. “Taxpayers should lament their money going to serve Musk’s interests instead of the interests of the American people,” he said.
