Sacks: Musk exposed the corruption at great personal Cost; Congress must act

Sacks Says Musk Has Exposed the Corruption Through DOGE at Great Personal Cost—But Now it’s Time for Congress to Act
.
Elon Musk has been the canary in the coal mine, sounding the alarm on massive waste, fraud, and abuse inside the government through DOGE.
.
David Sacks says Musk has done his part—and paid a heavy price for it.
Now it’s up to Congress to finish the job.
.
“What we really need is for Congress to now embrace all of the corruption that Elon has found and eliminate it from the budget, because at the end of the day, in order to capture the savings here, we do need those appropriations eliminated from the budget.”
.
But Sacks warned the real danger isn’t Musk backing down—it’s Congress slipping back into the same old game.
.
“These old bulls in Congress who control the appropriations process—are they going to basically backslide and just put the spending back in because it’s easier to engage in this logrolling, or do we take advantage of this?”
.
He made one thing clear: Musk sacrificed enormously to expose the truth.

“This has cost him enormously. One of the reasons why Tesla is down is because you've had crazy leftists engaging in terrorism, firebombing Tesla dealerships.”

And what Musk uncovered is bigger than anyone thought.

“We’ve basically learned that this whole NGO thing is a giant scam where the people in government give enormous amounts of money to their friends, probably with the expectation that when they leave government, they're going to be next in line at the trough.”

Sacks said Musk exposed the rot—but without action, it could all be wasted.

“Elon's done an enormous service exposing this. But it's not entirely up to him. In order for us to realize the benefit, we need Congress now to act on that. I’m afraid that’s not going to happen.”
