<p>CNN Republican commentator Scott Jennings took a blowtorch to Democrat claims that entrepreneur Elon Musk — who will spearhead the new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) alongside Vivek Ramaswamy — is actually the one in charge when it comes to forming policy ahead of President-elect Donald Trump&#8217;s second term in the White House.</p>
<p>Jennings pointed directly to the Wall Street Journal — and the recent article that showed they were finally catching up with the obvious reality of President Joe Biden&#8217;s infirmity — and pointed out the fact that no one believed Biden had actually been running anything for much of the past four years.</p>

<p>&#8220;I hear Democrats criticizing the idea that we have unelected people with too much influence over the government,&#8221; Jennings said, in reference to the myriad claims that <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/whoopi-airs-fever-dream-on-live-tv-says-musk-and-vance-could-be-plotting-hostile-takeover" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Musk</a> was controlling the outcome of the recent government shutdown-averting continuing resolution.</p>
<p>&#8220;I invite them to pick up the Wall Street Journal from this week and find out that unelected people have been running the government for the last four years,&#8221; he said. The <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/new-details-emerge-about-white-houses-cover-up-of-bidens-cognitive-decline" target="_blank" rel="noopener">article</a> he mentioned laid out concerns — voiced by officials from within Biden&#8217;s White House — that Biden was not capable of even hosting long meetings, mush less large unscripted events, without fears of a major slip. Others had weighed in on his decision to seek a second term in office, saying that they were unsure how he would have the capacity to finish out his current term, much less embark upon another.</p>
<p>Jennings went on to point to the Democrats&#8217; secondary complaint about Musk — namely that his status as a billionaire gave him leverage in government — and argued that too was irrelevant when stacked against the Democrats&#8217; use of the same strategy.</p>
<p>&#8220;I hear Democrats criticizing the influence of billionaires on our politics, when you&#8217;ve got this Soros punk running around collecting Democrat politicians like my kids collect Pokemon cards,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I think all of the criticism of Musk coming from the left is totally hypocritical, totally over the top, and he is doing something interesting: bringing some transparency to the federal government, it&#8217;s not a terrible thing.&#8221;</p>
