Summary
“He wants to be seen as having say in everything (even if he doesn’t),” one person in Trump’s orbit said.
Elon Musk’s growing influence in Donald Trump’s orbit is reportedly irritating members of the former president’s inner circle.
Since his efforts helped secure Trump’s reelection, Musk has been highly visible at Mar-a-Lago, taking credit for Trump’s victory and acting as if he’s a “co-president.”
Musk has joined key diplomatic calls and even attempted to broker peace with Iran.
Despite his appointment to lead the Department of Government Efficiency, some close to Trump feel Musk’s overreach and need for attention may jeopardize his position, as Trump dislikes sharing the spotlight.

That's a pretty clear violation of the Logan Act. Gettin' blue from holding my breath over here.
I'm sure Gutless Garland will get right on it.
Who are we all really kidding with any semblance of expectations, though? It hasn't even been 100 uears since Kennedy and the crack job that was the Warren Commission.
Historically the Logan act has been interpreted to not include the Presiden-Elect and their incoming administration.
If the things mentioned this is the most "normal".
Is it possible to be part of an administration if you've only been named as part of a department that doesn't exist?
That specific precedent likely doesn't exist as most new cabinet level positions aren't created by President Elects.
I'm sure the judiciary is gonna take care of it.
Just after they have some tea and cake.
Are the people singing yet?
Sadly, no, we were forced to eat the minstrels in the frozen lands of Nador.
Brave Sir Robin…
