SpaceX’s Musk Attacks Key Trump Cabinet Member Over NASA Job

SpaceX chief executive Elon Musk is ratcheting up his high-risk critique of NASA interim administrator Sean Duffy, a member of President Donald Trump’s cabinet, injecting drama and uncertainty into the nomination process for the agency’s top job.

In a barrage of posts on his X social media platform that ran through Wednesday, Musk insulted Duffy, who is also the Secretary of Transportation, and criticized his proposal to fold NASA into the department.
