How transparent is Elon Musk regarding his potential conflicts of interest and financial dealings in his government role?

According to legal expert Norm Eisen, Elon Musk's claims of transparency are fundamentally misleading. Despite having "extraordinary powers" and "great business interests" that exceed even those of Donald Trump, Musk has failed to provide basic transparency measures required for government officials. Key transparency failures include the absence of mandatory financial disclosure forms, no clear conflict of interest controls for his regulated businesses, and unknown status regarding legal waivers or recusal procedures. Eisen characterizes this as "opacity" rather than transparency, describing it as "profoundly dangerous for American government." The lack of transparency has prompted legal action, with attorneys successfully obtaining court orders to block Musk's access to sensitive government systems, including Treasury Department data, highlighting the serious concerns about accountability in his unprecedented government influence.
