Trump Wants the US to Run Gaza While Elon Musk Runs America
On ‘America Unhinged,’ Francesca and Wajahat react to Trump promising a US takeover of Gaza while he lets Elon Musk illegally take over the US government.
We’re just over two weeks into the second Trump presidency, and the broligarchy is on full display. In a press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Trump vowed to take over and “own” the Gaza Strip, showing the American people that he’s more focused on governing Gaza than overseeing the actual United States government.
Instead, that responsibility has been deferred to the world’s richest man: Elon Musk. Musk isn’t hiding his shadow presidency as he and his minions at the so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) launch an all-out attack on USAID and the Treasury Department.
On the latest episode of ‘America Unhinged’ on YouTube, Francesca Fiorentini and Wajahat Ali break down Trump’s remarks on Gaza and Elon Musk’s government takeover, noting just how dangerous it is for Musk (an unelected private citizen!) to have access to millions of Americans’ private and sensitive information.
“This is an administrative coup. This is a purge. This is the world’s richest man using $300 million as a quid pro quo to get access to our information so he can deregulate, so he can make money for himself and his broligarchy billionaire friends,” Wajahat warns.
Plus, Zeteo contributor Taylor Lorenz joins the show to discuss the hypocrisy of Elon Musk, a self-proclaimed “free-speech absolutist,” while censorship and misinformation run rampant on his social media platform, X.

Please explain Trump's "Sovereign Wealth Fund"...it sounds like a great opportunity for him to rip off the resources of the USA, but I don't really understand what it would entail, and just how he would screw us more.
And Republicans are just sitting there watching and letting America being taken over by Musk and taking away their ability to do anything (not that they care) and some Democrats are even helping them by voting for Trump nominees or lacking any ability to stop this.... Congress and Supreme Court should just want to SHUT THEIR DOORS AND GO HOME.......there is nothing for them to do.........
