No one elected Elon Musk. As Donald Trump allows Musk to access people’s personal information and shut down government funding, Republicans in Washington will also own the consequences. We must do everything in our power to push back and protect people from harm.

I went offline for a bit this weekend but from what I gather the federal government is basically being run by an unelected meme lord who doesn’t know how anything works. Do I have that right?

Elon Musk has forced his way into the system that pays your Social Security checks and tax refunds. He likely now has access to your Social Security number.

In plain English: Republicans in Congress plot more severe budget cuts to health care, nursing homes, and school lunches to pay for tax breaks for billionaires like Elon Musk. It sounds absurd, but it’s true.

Elon Musk and DOGE want to create a mobile app for you to file your taxes for free with the IRS. I led over 140 members of Congress in letting Trump's nominees know that the IRS already has an easy program to file your taxes for free called Direct File. And we should expand it.
Democrats urge Trump nominees to keep the IRS's free direct tax-filing tool, touting it as a DOGE-friendly program trib.al/xr2sFdg

This announcement fails to answer key questions about national security threats and FBI vetting of nominees, and increases concerns about corruption. There appear to be serious gaps between the Trump transition’s ethics agreement and the letter of the law.
UPDATE: Trump's team has now signed 1 of the 3 standard transition memos, but has not yet agreed to those that would give them access to federal cybersecurity support and FBI background checks of his incoming cabinet. politico.com/news/2024/11/26…

Trump: “Maybe we’ll pay off the $35 trillion US debt in Crypto. I’ll write on a little piece of paper, ‘$35T crypto we have no debt.’ That’s what I like.” How can anyone vote for this absolute moron?

Don’t be fooled: Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress are coming for IVF. If you don’t believe me, ask Senate Republicans why they blocked IVF protections not once, but TWICE this year.

Horseshit. Lie. He tried to take away my press pass and had those who disagreed with him forcefully removed from his events.
Vance: You know something Donald Trump will never do? Donald Trump will never go out there and say that his fellow citizens should be censored or silenced for disagreeing with them.

Former NH Republican Senator Gordon Humphrey endorsed VP Harris: “I voted for Republicans for more than 50 years. I can't vote for Trump, as a father, as a grandfather, as a veteran, as a former U.S. senator."
