So money claw back and hand it to SpaceX?

  Probably blue origin. NASA wants more than one supplier, for as much as possible.

    At this point it is probably going to be a human rated Dream chaser. they were the 1st looser in the original commercial crew contract. They seem to be on track for a test launch later this year for Commercial Resupply.

    Blue Origin is another company that talks a good game, but they've yet to put anything in orbit. If NASA is casting about for a second supplier, there were other rejected bidders on the current human space transport contracts (e.g., Sierra Space's Dream Chaser, still under development in a cargo variant) which seem less risky.

  IANAL...but I'd give 100:1 odds that the NASA/Boeing contract does not give Uncle Sam the power to do that.
