About a “dozen Musk allies” have put a pin of their every day routines to function unofficial advisers to the Trump transition effort, says the New York Times.
Among them, stories the outlet: Jared Birchall, the pinnacle of Elon Musk’s household workplace, has interviewed just a few candidates for jobs on the State Department; Marc Andreessen has talked with candidates for senior roles on the State Department, the Pentagon, and the Department of Health and Human Services; Shaun Maguire of Sequoia Capital is poring over picks for the intelligence neighborhood; Anduril co-founder Trae Stephens and Palantir CTO Shyam Sankar have each spoken to Trump transition officers about roles on the Pentagon; and entrepreneurs Mark Pincus and David Marcus have been concerned in interviews with “prospective Trump personnel.”
Per the Times, even Musk’s mom, Maye, has been concerned within the transition, saying to a current interviewer that she “likes to sit in on meetings” along with her son.
