Headlines

Musk appears on the cover of Time magazine

According to February 8, Time magazine has included Elon Musk as the cover character in this issue and published an article "Elon Musk's War against Washington". Musk is in the cover, wearing a suit and sitting behind a luxurious wood-carved desk that symbolizes power (or imitate the firm table in the office of the US president). On the left side behind is the American flag and on the right side is the presidential flag, suggesting that Musk has been deeply bound to presidential power and American politics. According to the article: On one side, it is an institution with a 64-year history, a budget of $35 billion, and its mission is clearly stipulated by federal law; on the other side, it is a politically sabotaged team used by Musk to dismantle the federal bureaucracy. They call themselves members of the Ministry of Government Efficiency (DOGE), a group of temporary staff members without a charter, without a website, and without explicit legal authorization. Its power comes from Musk, the wealthiest man on the planet, who was given the task of dismantling most of the federal bureaucracy—cutting budgets, undermining civil service, and depriving independent institutions of the ability to hinder the president’s goals.
