About this episode
Department of Government Efficiency head and business owner Elon Musk visited the Pentagon on Friday, which according to defence secretary Pete Hegseth was to talk about "efficiencies" and "innovations".
It was not, as President Trump insisted, to brief Musk on the US military's plan for any theoretical war that might break out with China.
On day 62 of the Trump presidency, US correspondents James Matthews and Martha Kelner discuss why Musk was at the Pentagon, and if his work presents a conflict of interest for the administration.
Plus, James has been to the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington DC, where there's a new self-appointed chairman - Donald Trump, and the artists aren't happy.
If you've got a question you'd like James, Martha, and Mark to answer, you can email it to [email protected].
