Musk's goal was never to reduce government spending or waste. It was to get unrestrained access to government spending data to serve his own goals.

It's a conspiracy theory - I don't have any real evidence to support it, but I tend to believe it.

Musk's primary goal was to kneecap the federal agencies investigating him and his companies:

- himself: SEC, FEC

- Tesla: NHTSA, EEOC, NLRB

- Xitter: CFPB

- Neuralink: FDA

- SpaceX: DOD, DOJ, EPA, NASA, FAA
