“That President Trump has violated the Appointments Clause of the United States Constitution by creating a new federal Department without Congressional approval and by granting Musk sweeping powers over the entire federal government without seeking the advice and consent of the Senate”
That’s a pretty ignorant take. The President is in charge of the executive department which is what Musk is looking at. That’s an existing constitutional power. If Musk were looking at congressional committees or the court system, we would have ‘power grab” issues. But he isn’t doing that. Believing that the bureaucracy is somehow separate from the office of president is wrong and is the kind of mindset that makes one think of “deep state”.
