Private individuals should not be granted unchecked authority over federal agencies and systems. By allowing Elon Musk to access sensitive government data and dismantle operations like USAID, President Trump has overstepped constitutional boundaries separating powers. This threatens the rule of law and undermines the system of checks and balances. I urge delaying further congressional actions, including appointee confirmations, until there is a full investigation into these concerning developments and measures are taken to reign in this executive overreach. Unchallenged, it sets a dangerous precedent of consolidating federal control in the hands of an unelected, unaccountable private citizen beholden only to the president's whims. Protecting our democratic institutions from such encroachment must be a top priority before moving forward with official business as usual.
