Trump Seeks to Partner with SpaceX for "Cutting Off" Business, Deems it Integral Upon Review
BlockBeats News, July 20th, according to The Wall Street Journal, sources said that just days after Trump raised the possibility in early June of cutting ties with Musk's companies, the government began reviewing SpaceX's contracts with the federal government. However, officials believed that most contracts could not be canceled because they are crucial to the Department of Defense and NASA.
After Musk escalated personal attacks on Trump on June 5th, Trump claimed that the simplest way to save federal funds was to "terminate" Musk's company contracts. A few days later, a senior official at the U.S. General Services Administration requested the Department of Defense, NASA, and other federal agencies to fill out an electronic form listing all current contracts and other transaction agreements with SpaceX. After reviewing this data, White House and agency officials, including the Pentagon, concluded that most contracts are crucial to the Department of Defense and NASA. Sources said that some of SpaceX's contracts may continue to be reviewed.
