Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) called for Elon Musk to be investigated as soon as Democrats retake control of Congress, with the liberal lawmaker claiming Musk “possibly sentenced to death” 4.5 million kids via DOGE cuts.
Khanna slammed the Tesla and SpaceX boss during an appearance on the I’ve Had It podcast on Saturday. “He needs to answer for that,” Khanna said. “He needs to be subpoenaed, he needs to face investigation, he needs to answer for what he did with DOGE. It’s not just ‘let’s move on.'”
Khanna told co-host Jennifer Welch a moment earlier that many people were celebrating Musk making thousands of SpaceX employees millionaires recently when the rocket company went public.
“Once we take power, there needs to be accountability. There needs to be accountability for Elon Musk,” Khanna said. “You know, they’re celebrating that he created 4,400 millionaires, but they don’t talk about the 4.5 million children around the world who he possibly sentenced to death by dismantling USAID.”
