Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) suggested Elon Musk serve as Speaker in a Thursday morning post on X following contentious debates over the continuing resolution (CR).“The Speaker of the House need not be a member of Congress . . . ,” Paul wrote.“Nothing would disrupt the swamp more than electing Elon Musk . . . think about it . . . nothing’s impossible.
