It’s alarming that Elon Musk has access to government payment systems used to deliver Social Security and Medicare benefits.
He also drove out the senior career official at Treasury responsible for preventing a potential default on U.S. debt.
Congress must investigate.

This is the worst one. I've seen lots of bad RFK videos but this is the worst.
I don't know what is more awful, the fact that the guy who might run HHS is casually talking about his belief in eugenics or that he won't look her in the eye when he pitches this racist madness
