Democrats are calling for a criminal conflict of interest against Elon Musk about reported Starlink Faa -Deal

Three top democratic senators are calling for a examined investigation by Elon Musk to award a juicy contract with the Federal Aviation Administration to one of his companies.

In the past few weeks, several outlets have reported that the FAA is planning to cancel a 2.4 billion dollar contract with Verizon in order to improve America's air traffic control systems and instead to award the project to Musks Satellite Internet Business Starlink.

Sources tells Rab that FAA officials had been verbally ordered to find money for a Starlink deal The Washington Post reported that employees of the parent company of Starlink SpaceX already work at the agency.

An engineer who is employed by Musks SpaceX, who also works as a “volunteer” at the Department of Government Efficiency (Doge), has already reported in a post on X that he had used the company's Star Link to revise FAA systems.

The SpaceX engineer Ted Malaska instructed the employees in the FAA headquarters in Washington last month to “start working on a program immediately to use thousands of the company's Starlink satellites for supporting the National Airspace system”, reported Bloomberg News .

He warned the FAA worker that they risked losing their work when they have done something to hinder the work Bloomberg.

Musk has the authority to create a hole in federal authorities with fire and contract cuts, for which private companies such as its possibly do the work in new offers financed by taxpayers.

Now the democratic senators Elizabeth Warren (Massachusetts), Richard Blumenthal (Connecticut) and Chris van Hollen (Maryland) have written to Trump's Attorney General Pam Bondi and asked for a corruption examination in the alleged outstanding agreements.

“We ask that the general inspector's office of the Ministry of Transport and the Ministry of Justice examine the scope of Mr. Musk's activities at FAA” The guardian.

The investigation had to find out whether Musk “took part in his capacity as a special employee in the White House … in a certain matter in which he has a financial interest that would violate the criminal interest law”.

SpaceX has insisted that it does not intend to overurp existing contracts and that “recent media reports about SpaceX and the FAA are wrong”.

“Starlink is a possible partly fix for an aging system. There is no effort or intention that Starlink will take over an existing contract – this is only for [Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt]”The company said on March 5 on X.

Musk also claimed on his own X account that Starlink terminals were sent to the FAA “free of charge to the taxpayer” and “in an emergency base”.

Nevertheless, he incorrectly violated the Verizon Treaty – incorrectly because this contract has not yet started.

“The Verizon system does not work and also exhibits air travelers a serious risk,” he scolded on February 27th.

A few days later, he claimed that the system “collapsed very quickly” and was close to the “catastrophic failure” before he corrected that he spoke about an old system that had nothing to do with Verizon.

Musk has supervised budget cuts and mass shots in several government agencies in its capacity as Doge's DE-FACTO head (although the lawyers of the White House had bizarre that he was not responsible). He has the authority to reduce public jobs so dramatically in order to request the hiring of private companies to close the gaps and do essential work.

In another letter to Trump's chief of staff Susie Wiles, the three Democrats and the Senator of Oregon, Jeff Merkley and Maryland representative Jamie Raskin -the Trump government said that the Musk companies are examining the control of at least eleven agencies.

Trump himself claimed that Musk should not be designed to make government decisions about areas in which he has a conflict of interest.

But last week, with protests and boycotts against Musk's electric car company Tesla, which is growing worldwide, the president turned to transform the lawn of the White House into a bizarre advertising for Tesla's vehicles.

“It's a great product,” said Trump when he showed a cherry-rod Tesla sedan. He also indicated that everyone who destroys Teslas would be treated as a domestic terrorist.
