The conservative Heritage Foundation has filed numerous Freedom of Information requests with NASA, seeking internal communications about Elon Musk and former President Donald Trump, according to federal records. The initiative is part of the foundation’s broader strategy to aid Trump in identifying and removing civil servants seen as obstructing his potential second-term agenda, including his proposed collaboration with Musk.
The group argues that NASA and other agencies hinder private sector innovation, focusing instead on cultural issues. NASA has received around 150 requests in two days, raising concerns that the effort is aimed at identifying employees who oppose Trump or Musk.
