Summary
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez called Elon Musk “one of the most unintelligent billionaires” she has ever met.
She criticized DOGE for placing unqualified 19-year-olds in Treasury positions and failing to do “their homework.”
Musk’s team has accessed the Treasury’s $6 trillion payment system, raising security concerns. Ocasio-Cortez warned of his “lack of intelligence and expertise,” calling him “morally vacant.”
DOGE has also shut down USAID and moved it under the State Department.
In a slightly saner world she would be nobrainer. Smart, young, active, has enormous support base. In current US political climate being smart and young is a disadvantage and being a woman is a political suicide, unless you’re very, very conservative.
I’m not so sure, Obama overcame being Bla, 2x, and part of that was due to him being smart (and young), I’m sure.
