Why are we taking Musk at his word when his current MO is to cast doubt and mistrust on government spending?
Musk, Trump and the admin have already been pushing so many outright lies via their propaganda channels. Despite being deunked the lies are repeated nonstop.
The lie that USAID spent $50 million on condoms in Gaza (the money was for running hospitals) for example.
Or the lie about funding an opera about a transgender woman (the money was for a university in Columbia, unrelated to a performance put on at the school).
They are spewing lies left and right. Lies go twice around the block before the truth has put its pants on.
Why should we believe him on this?
