Does America have a CEO?

A group of anonymous Silicon Valley whistleblowers warns that Elon Musk is using his role in the Trump administration to consolidate control over the U.S. government under a neo-reactionary agenda. The leaked memo, published by journalist Dave Troy, claims Musk is exploiting the Republican Party to privatize state functions and install a technocratic elite aligned with the Dark Enlightenment philosophy of Curtis Yarvin. It also seems like the current president is merely a manager at this point.

The memo highlights four major concerns:

  1. Seizing the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) – Musk-aligned operatives have purged career civil servants and installed loyalists.

  2. Deploying unvetted hires – Young, unqualified individuals now wield power over critical government functions without security clearances.

  3. Gaining access to Treasury payment systems – Musk has direct influence over U.S. financial infrastructure, posing national security risks.

  4. Delaying the mandated divestment of TikTok – Reports suggest Musk is positioning himself as a potential buyer, consolidating control over youth political discourse.

It warns this movement seeks to replace democracy with "techno-monarchism", using AI and data systems for authoritarian rule.

The whistleblowers call on Congress to act urgently against what they describe as Musk’s parallel power structure, which they say threatens American democracy and national security.

Miniaturized CRISPR Packs a Mighty Gene Editing Punch.

NanoCas, a miniaturized CRISPR system by Mammoth Biosciences, overcomes delivery challenges, enabling in-body gene editing. One-third the size of Cas9, it fits into a single viral carrier. In animal tests, it successfully edited genes linked to high cholesterol and muscular dystrophy, showing promise for broader therapies, including brain diseases.
