Elon Musk made headlines at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Oxon Hill, Md., by waving a chainsaw—gifted to him by Argentine President Javier Milei—symbolizing a battle against bureaucracy. During his speech, Musk criticized the Biden administration's immigration policies, calling them a 'real scam' to manipulate political power in swing states. He expressed a desire to audit the Federal Reserve and emphasized the need to reduce government spending and the workforce. Musk's appearance showcased his growing influence among conservative activists as he champions efficiency in government operations.
This is the chainsaw for bureaucracy, he said. Musk slammed the previous Biden administration for its immigration policies, specifically naming an app that was used by nearly 1 million people to be allowed into the U.S.
A lot of people don't quite appreciate that this was an actual real scam at scale to tilt the scales of democracy in America, Musk said.
Musk responded, Yeah, sure, while we're at it. Waste is pretty much everywhere, Musk said.
Musk, the Tesla CEO who has become perhaps President Donald Trump's most influential adviser, spoke about his crusade to cut government spending and downsize the federal workforce.
