Elizabeth Warren Urges President-elect Trump to Set Conflict-of-Interest Rules for Elon Musk, the World's Richest Man
Dec 17, 2024, 01:19 PM
Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Massachusetts) has formally requested President-elect Donald Trump to establish clear and transparent conflict-of-interest guidelines for Elon Musk, who is set to serve as a top adviser in the incoming administration. In her letter, Warren emphasized the need for these rules to ensure that Musk, the world's richest man, does not face conflicts due to his various business interests. The senator's appeal highlights concerns regarding Musk's influence and the potential for ethical dilemmas arising from his dual roles. Trump's spokesperson, Karoline Leavitt, dismissed Warren's concerns, labeling them as 'toothless' and referring to her with a derogatory nickname. Warren's push for accountability comes amid broader discussions about the implications of wealthy individuals holding advisory positions in government.
