Steve Cohen, a U.S. Congressman representing Tennessee's 9th district, has taken to social media to express his concerns over recent political developments involving Elon Musk and Republican lawmakers. His tweets have drawn attention to the alleged access granted to Musk and his associates to various government data systems.
On February 5, 2025, Steve Cohen tweeted that "Republicans gave Elon Musk the green light to let a 19-year-old and his young pals access every payment and data system at OPM, the GSA, and Treasury." He further claimed that a substantial campaign donation had facilitated this access.
