Sen. Warren urges Trump to hold Musk accountable for conflicts of interest
Briefly

Sen. Elizabeth Warren emphasizes that Elon Musk must either divest from his companies or establish barriers in advising the president to avoid conflicts of interest.
Warren raises concerns about Musk’s influence, particularly as he heads a group tasked with reducing government spending, which could affect his companies benefiting from federal contracts.
Musk’s companies, including Tesla and SpaceX, are heavily intertwined with federal interests, with billions in contracts and regulatory scrutiny, creating potential conflicts.
Warren believes that Musk's close ties to Trump and his significant financial interests in multiple companies necessitate strict adherence to conflict of interest rules for transparency.
