How accountable these people become depends on how willing the citizens are to fix the problem.
If a national shutdown causes the houses to act on the amendment provisions that exist, impeach several members of the administration and force both judiciary and policing to do their job, pulling people like Musk down gets a lot closer.
It’s always been in the hands of the people, it’s how willing they are to unite around something and go through with it that’s the issue. The fact Republicans are able to get their people in by simply voting as a bloc when necessary tells Americans this.
