Elon Musk, the world's richest man and, depending on whom you ask, the perceived head of the Department of Government Efficiency, is taking a big step back from his role in the federal government. He's doing so amid sinking international popularity, both as a political figure and as a businessman. But let's be real here: Musk is still a billionaire many times over, and the Department of Government Efficiency really did put multiple government agencies — and the careers of tens of thousands of government employees — into a metaphorical wood chipper. Brian Barrett, executive editor of news at Wired Magazine, explains what Musk's time in power has meant for average Americans.And in headlines: The Supreme Court let President Donald Trump's ban on trans troops in the military take effect for now, Trump had an awkward Oval Office sit down with Canada's prime minister, and the Department of Justice asked a federal judge to dismiss a lawsuit seeking to limit access to the abortion drug mifepristone.Show Notes:Check out Brian's work – www.wired.com/author/brian-barrett/Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday
