In a surprising revelation that has raised eyebrows across the nation, Elon Musk recently shared on Senator Ted Cruz’s podcast that the U.S. government may be operating with “magic money computers” within its financial systems. According to Musk, these systems, primarily located in the U.S. Treasury and several other federal agencies, are issuing payments without proper oversight, creating confusion and uncertainty around the true scale of federal spending,

During the podcast, Musk detailed what he believes to be a significant flaw within the federal government’s financial infrastructure. He claimed that 14 computer systems across various government agencies are responsible for transferring funds automatically without necessary controls. Musk referred to these systems as “magic money computers,” alleging that they generate payments “out of thin air” and do so without proper documentation or oversight.This claim has raised alarms about the accuracy of the financial data reported by these agencies. According to Musk, the existence of these systems could result in federal spending figures being off by as much as 5 percent. Senator Cruz joined Musk in speculating that the effect of these errors might add up to trillions of dollars over time. If accurate, this could have far-reaching consequences for federal budgeting and fiscal accountability.
