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.

      How many has she met, and why is she meeting them outside of hearings?

      Edit: looks like the quote was cut off for no reason:

      “This dude is probably one of the most unintelligent billionaires I have ever met or seen or witnessed,” she said

      Definitely a better way of phrasing it.

        She’s a member of Congress from NYC. She should meet a few. I would run into Jerry Spyre in Rockefeller Center all the damn time (he owns it) and obviously she would know Mike Bloomberg.
