I'm sorry but the key priority for the next US SecDef has to be extracting Elon Musk from every single thing related to US military contracting. No Musk company should receive any government contract of any kind from any Dem executive.

Billions of dollars’ worth of contracts predicting oil would fall and the S&P 500 would rise were placed about 15 minutes before Trump announced a U-turn on Iran in a post on Truth Social. CFTC staff began to investigate...then were told to lay off. www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...

The one in which Magistrate Judge Fitzpatrick joins the #WITAOD cult, finding Musk was head of DOGE on Feb. 11 — a date when, per the government’s position in other litigation, no one formally held that role. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
vi. February 11, 2025, Statement by Flon Musk
On February 11, 2025, Elon Musk, a Special Government Employee and head of DOGE
retweeted on X a photo of Ms. Comans along with the statement, "FEMA CFO Mary Comans was just fired for funneling $58M to illegal migrant hotels in Manhattan" and he called it a "criminal
action." The Government concedes and the Court finds that other than the fact that Ms. Comans
had been fired, the post by Mr. Musk was entirely false. The Government further concedes and the
Court further finds that Mr. Musk and officials at FEMA and DHS knew this information was false
at the time it was posted. Based on the unchallenged facts and the fact that Mr. Musk was the head

of DOGE, he knew or should have known that any payments made to state or local governments through a FEMA grant in February 2025 were approved by his subordinates. Finally, the fact that Mr. Musk posted a picture of Ms. Comans to his millions of followers while falsely characterizing
her government service as a "criminal action" was clearly intended to make her afraid. Posting
Ms. Comans' picture served no legitimate governmental interest and was little more than state
sanctioned intimidation.

I have called my representatives and demanded that they stand up for Ilhan Omar. It's not just the proximity to an election. If Trump is able to weaponize DHS/DOJ to take out sitting members of Congress without backlash, that's it, that's the whole game.
