DAVID MARCUS: What America owes Elon Musk after DOGE
Fox News
Elon Musk has served as a heat shield, or lightning rod, throughout Trump’s tumultuous and historic second first 100 days.

David Marcus is a columnist living in West Virginia and the author of "Charade: The COVID Lies That Crushed A Nation."
