But it’s too late. Elon Musk has already seized control of the nation’s bank account.

He successfully chased out the career civil servant who oversaw the payment system, David Lebryk, and got his stooge Tom Krause installed in that job. Krause is another Silicon Valley tech bro that was providing cloud storage services to DOGE. The court order likely doesn’t apply to him because it appears he is now officially a Treasury Department employee. Meaning, with a single phone call to him, either Musk or Trump can stop any payments to anyone. A judge seriously needs to remove Krause and reinstate Lebryk or what’s the point? Musk still has his hand in our cookie jar!

The payment system disburses federal money for just about everything. And so far everything Musk has claimed was “fraud” was actually just funding for something he doesn’t like or see the value of funding. No *actual* fraud has been found.
