Stephen Colbert says Elon Musk is blowing up the White House like a Tesla in Self Driving Mode

Stephen Colbert speaking.

“Elon was able to buy his way into the government and now he’s blowing it up like a Tesla in Self Driving Mode,” said Stephen Colbert on The Late Show on Tuesday, taking time in his monologue to call out the Trump-supporting tech billionaire’s aggressive White House takeover.

Over the past few weeks, “special government employee” Musk and his team have been taking control of U.S. federal government departments, including gaining access to computer systems and taking aim at USAID. Musk runs the newly-created Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) which is reportedly staffed mainly by college grads.

One Musk-rattled realm is the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), the federal government’s HR department.

“You’re the richest man on Earth! You want to take over HR?” said Colbert. “Why can’t you be a fun billionaire like Richard Branson? Here he is kitesurfing wearing a naked lady on his back like a Jansport backpack. Or the Dyson guy? He invented a vacuum and grows delicious strawberries now.

“Elon, you could be the next Dyson — you never stop sucking.”
