Musk was in hot water for a time after his stunt with his federal SpaceX contracts and his own federal security clearance.

Yet Musk and SpaceX just keep winning the NASA contracts, despite the massive efforts by Blue Origin and Bezos to stop them, including repeatedly taking legal action to stop the SpaceX contracts for the NASA Lunar Lander.
As of right now, Musk/SpaceX are the only outfit that can send humans to the space station, outside Russia. Without Musk, it's back to the Russians to beg them to take American astronauts to the space station again, like they did for 9 years after the Space Shuttle program was ended.

AND-—Musk has booster rockets that land themselves BACK on earth for reuse-—

RECYCLE THAT——!!!

NASA dropped all their booster rockets into the Oceans. Isn’t that some sort of CONTAMINATION & WASTE OF MONEY?
