The REAL reason Democrats are TERRIFIED of Elon Musk and DOGE

Democrats are furious that President Trump is trusting Elon Musk with so much, repeatedly calling him an “unelected billionaire” — but Glenn Beck of “The Glenn Beck Program” believes their criticism is less about Elon and more about themselves.

And Trump is only proving Glenn’s point.

“He’s not gaining anything,” Trump said in an interview with Bret Baier on Fox News. “In fact, I wonder how he can devote the time to it. He’s so into it. But I told him ‘do that,’ then I’m going to tell him very soon, like maybe in 24 hours, to go check the Department of Education.”

“He’s going to find the same thing. Then I’m going to go to the military. Let’s check the military. We’re going to find billions, hundreds of billions of dollars of fraud and abuse. And you know, the people elected me on that,” he added.

“He’s absolutely right about this,” Glenn says. “First of all, ‘He’s an unelected bureaucrat.’ Well, almost all bureaucrats are. I don’t know if you follow that, but you know, the treasury secretary is also somebody who wasn’t voted in.”

Meanwhile, the Democrats are still raging about Elon exposing USAID — which isn’t even an aid program.

“We have aid agencies; that’s not one of them. This is soft power, and quite honestly, it has from the beginning been a CIA operation,” Glenn says. “I’m not against aid; I’m against corruption, and I’m also against a lot of this soft power being done that nobody knows about.”

“Why are we just finding out about this stuff, and what are we going to find in the Pentagon?” he asks, adding, “We are going to find really bad stuff in the Pentagon.”

Pat Gray agrees, noting that regarding USAID, the entire idea of a government agency helping the less fortunate was insane in the first place.

“It’s not government agencies that should be doing this; it is individuals who are tasked with charity and helping others. We’re the ones,” Gray says. “Once you’re forced into it, it’s not charity.”

But the Democrats don’t see it the same way, as some of them, like Rep. Maxine Waters, have begun protesting at places like the Department of Education — and verbally accosting the security personnel.

“It’s quite amazing how these people are so freaked out. They’ve got to cover their tracks. I’m convinced that’s what it is,” Glenn says.
