The absurd hypocrisy of Elon Musk and Donald Trump
Elon Musk and PayPal Mafia partner Peter Thiel have all these contracts, and these are just the contracts with the Department of Defense. There are similar contracts with the FBI, CIA, NSA, Social Security Administration, and others so I want to ask Congress and the Senate when is priority spying, and monitoring all over the world in a global scale but Elon Musk keeps claiming that cancer treatments, clinics for the poor, assistance for children and adults is criminal? My question is would it make more sense to cut off all these contracts if Elon wants to cut so many expenses? and before somebody accuses me of spying all the information is available on the government websites that Elon Musk is shutting down and pretending to be the great investigator of secrets.
Somebody in Congress ought to explain. These are a few of the contracts of Palantir. Elon Musk must explain how come he has not exposed these contracts? It is in the billions of dollars.
