Elon Musk has allegedly seized control of the US government's payment system, effectively directing operations through the self-styled Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Following a leadership shake-up at the Treasury Department, Musk openly declared intentions to cut off funds to organizations he deemed undesirable, notably USAID, calling it a "criminal organization". Reports indicate that DOGE gained access to sensitive systems after the removal of officials opposing them. This unprecedented power shift raises concerns about governance and accountability in federal spending.
