John,

Donald Trump named the richest man in the world, Elon Musk, and Big Pharma billionaire Vivek Ramaswamy to head up a new commission aimed at slashing popular government programs―and he’s looking at ways to bypass Congress and force his changes through by fiat.

Headline: Trump aides explore plans to boost Musk effort by wrestling control from Congress

In his tweet announcing the commission, Trump wrote that “Republican politicians have dreamed about the objectives for a very long time.” He called the changes “drastic” and said it would “send shockwaves through the system.”

Republicans and their Wall Street funders have dreamed of destroying Social Security for nearly a century. Greedy private insurance companies have been trying to get their hands on Medicare for almost 60 years. This commission is how they think they’ll get their wish.
