Let me emphasize: Elon Musk has not been confirmed by Congress. His “department” was never actually enacted. No one other than Trump has given him any authority.
Democrats and any Republicans with a spine need to step in and stop this madness.

The Trump administration has ousted the Coast Guard’s top admiral, Adm. Linda Fagan, who in 2022 became the first woman to lead a branch of the U.S. military.
The move could be the first of several changes to military leadership under the new commander in chief.
