To be clear, Elon Musk has no more lawful authority to start barking orders at government agencies than you or I would as random private citizens walking in off the street.
He is not in anybody’s chain of command.
He does not have lawful access to government systems and resources.
Public officials should not recognize his claimed authority over them.
If Trump wants to invoke constitutional executive authority,
he can do it through the proper channels
—but Musk is not the president of the United States
and he has not been empowered as a legally valid conduit for the president’s orders.
