Summary
The Intercept has uncovered Elon Musk’s government email address, erm71@who.eop.gov, and filed FOIA requests to access his correspondence as head of DOGE.
DOGE has rapidly cut federal staffing and spending but tries to claim exemption from FOIA due to its White House affiliation.
Watchdog groups argue DOGE wields agency-level power and are suing for transparency. Government responses on Musk’s role have been contradictory, fueling legal battles.
Pending lawsuits aim to classify DOGE as a FOIA-subject agency and force document disclosures.
I’m surprised his email account username is that banal. I’d have thought it would be something fucking stupid like “sigmaleetbro420”.
That’s just how he names his kids XD
