Given how much he contributed to the election outcome it hardly seems tired to blame him for the consequences.
Plus he's on Twitter every week publicly discussing how much he uses the platform to put his thumb on the scale of discourse towards his personal beliefs.
In what world is he not involved?
The consequences of blocking a CR?
The consequences of the 2024 election in which he played a significant role. This "budget debacle" is a direct consequence.
Also, Elon has weighed in quite aggressively on prior budgetary fights, so it would be crazy to say his influence isn't being felt here. https://thehill.com/policy/technology/5046887-elon-musk-slam...
