Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) voiced her concerns over the influence of Elon Musk and President Donald Trump at a House Financial Services Committee hearing, pressing Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell on whether he would allow Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) into the Fed’s systems.
During Tuesday’s hearing, Waters aggressively questioned Powell about Musk’s potential access to the Federal Reserve, suggesting a great fear among Democrats that Musk and Trump might wield undue influence over the nation’s financial infrastructure.
“When Musk comes knocking at the Fed’s door, are you going to let him in?” Waters asked.
Powell, appearing hesitant to engage with the line of questioning, replied, “I don’t have anything for you on that.”
Waters then pressed further: “Would you like to tell us today that you won’t let DOGE into the Federal Reserve or have access to the systems and the data?”
Powell remained firm in his refusal to speculate on the matter, saying, “So we don’t, I don’t have any, we’ve had no contact and I don’t really have, I have nothing for you to report today on that.”
“Well, you know what happened at Treasury and you know what happened over at the CFPB and the people of this country are being violated because all of our privacy is being taken up by Elon Musk and Trump and we don’t know what all they have on us, our bank accounts, everything in our lives,” Waters admitted.
