โ€œItโ€™s going to be a golden era for Musk with in the White House,โ€ Wedbush Securities analyst Dan Ives said.

Personal comment: The commission appears to be a scam. The "report" isn't due until July 2026, and it's only recommendations that Congress would have to take up. It's going nowhere.

named Rep. Mike Waltz (R-FL) to be his national security adviser. Waltz's 6th congressional district leans heavily Republican; he won re-election 66%-34%, so no hope to flip that seat in a special election.
