“I have zero personal relationship with Elon Musk. I have talked to Elon Musk once on the phone in my life,“ Scott Kupor, who was sworn in to lead the Office of Personnel Management earlier this month, told reporters.
Kupor said he had told Trump and other people in the White House that “my job is to do the agenda that the president lays out to the best I can.”
Musk, who spent over a quarter of a billion dollars to help Trump win November’s presidential election, led the Department of Government Efficiency’s efforts to slash the budget and cut the federal workforce until his departure in late May to refocus on his tech empire, including electric vehicle maker Tesla .
The president also threatened to cancel billions of dollars worth of contracts between the federal government and Musk’s companies after Musk denounced Trump’s tax-cut and spending bill as a “disgusting abomination.”
Prior to taking the helm at OPM, Kupor was a partner at Silicon Valley-based venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz, which invests in Musk’s AI startup Xai as well as SpaceX. - Reuters
