ELON UNCUT: Shockwaves from the White House as Musk Unleashes on Government Waste, AI, and America’s Future

In an explosive, no-holds-barred interview from inside the White House, billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk sat down with Senator Ted Cruz and Ben Ferguson on the “Verdict” podcast for a candid, wide-ranging conversation that’s already set political and tech circles abuzz. Musk pulled back the curtain on government spending, shared bold AI predictions, and discussed everything from space travel to Hollywood’s culture wars and his sudden shift in political fortune.

A Billionaire at War With Waste

“Never a dull moment,” Musk quipped as he described the dysfunction he’s found in Washington compared to his headline-grabbing turn-around of Twitter. Both were messy, he admitted, “but it’s hard to compete with the federal government.” Musk revealed he found twice as many government credit cards as there are government employees and millions of dollars wasted on unused software and media licenses. “It’s like being in a room where you can shoot in any direction and you’re bound to hit waste,” Musk said, likening reforming federal expenditure to target practice with the deck stacked in his favor.

Magic Money Computers and $2 Billion Toaster Scams

Musk stunned hosts and viewers alike with allegations of “Magic Money Computers” inside the Treasury Department—government systems that facilitate mysterious, unaudited payments. He detailed an infamous $1.9 billion payment to a Stacy Abrams-linked nonprofit, allegedly in exchange for just 100 appliances. “That’s a very expensive toaster,” Musk remarked, blasting the lack of oversight and calling much of the system “80% incompetence, 20% malice.”

Transparency Goes Prime Time

Pledging radical transparency, Musk boasted that Doge—the federal cost-cutting team he now leads—posts every reform, action, and exposed scam publicly on their website and through X (formerly Twitter). “Extreme transparency. I don’t think anything’s ever been this transparent,” Musk said.

America’s AI Race—and the Threat of Skynet

On artificial intelligence, Musk made chilling predictions: Within ten years, he says, “AI could do anything better than a human can cognitively… AI will be smarter than the smartest human.” He warned there’s a “10-20% chance” of a Skynet-style AI disaster within the decade but also enormous prosperity if America wins the rapidly escalating AI arms race against China. “We must build AI chip factories in the U.S.,” Musk pressed, noting that Taiwan’s dominance is a strategic vulnerability.

From Leftist Hero to Target

Once beloved by liberals for his electric cars and SpaceX, Musk admitted whiplash from his reversal of political fortune. “After Trump, the left hates me more than anyone,” he declared, chalking up the shift to his drive to dismantle entitlement fraud and end “fake” handouts—a strategy he claims is used by Democrats to “buy voters.” Musk alleged left-wing groups and billionaires are funding attacks against his companies and even suggested foreign money could be behind incendiary attacks on Tesla infrastructure.

Space, Mars, and Humanity’s Destiny—And Yes, Han Shot First

Musk’s vision remains cosmic. He predicts humans will land on Mars by 2029, with a self-sustaining city on the Red Planet within 20 years—requiring “the entire base of Earth’s industry” to be rebuilt on Mars. Asked about the challenges, he was undaunted: “You need to recreate everything on Mars.” He also delivered fan service in a lightning round, declaring his first theater film was “Star Wars” and, for the record, “Han shot first.”

Secrets of Musk’s Success

Asked the secret behind his relentless success, Musk cited a “philosophy of curiosity” and a willingness to sleep in the office—something he’s done hundreds of times since his first start-up. He described “post-physics” problem solving and an open-source approach to patents, arguing that ideas should flow freely to speed up progress. “Patents are for the weak,” Musk said, claiming the true challenge lies in execution, not invention.

On Legacy and the Future of Civilization

Pressed on his legacy, Musk was clear: “If SpaceX gets people to Mars, that’s what people will remember.” He again emphasized his mission to make humanity a multiplanetary species—to ensure civilization’s survival.

One thing is certain: whether you see him as a hero, anti-hero, or disruptor, Elon Musk isn’t slowing down—and neither is the debate over his vision for America’s future.
