Warren says this is "code red" and "ringing the alarm" but I don't functionally understand what this means. What is Congress doing? What are the people supposed to do besides calling reps?

President Trump campaigned on lowering costs. But he’s letting billionaire Elon Musk and Project 2025 Architect Russ Vought kill the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
If they succeed, CEOs on Wall Street will once again be free to cheat you out of your savings.

I really don't understand what all these reps expect people to do with this information.
That's why she wants YOU to do something. 😆😆
Color me naive for thinking there was a plan.

You can’t begin to solve a problem if you’re too busy asking the wrong (and intentionally false) questions. Stop letting them define the narrative!!!
With a GOP majority in House & Senate controlled by Musk & Trump & a SCOTUS majority in GOP control, the Dem minority has few options.
OOPS! Turns out elections DO matter.
Let's all keep calling.
1) Inside an agency to end DOGE’s possession
2) In handcuffs placed on them by the mercenaries guarding one of those agencies
3) In the ground because one of those mercenaries shot them
Oaths matter.

And stop supporting their crap…
…and call…repeatedly.
Schumer said today D’s will start holding oversight hearings w/out Jim Crow GOP

Fingers crossed
more comprehensive than my wall of text. https://indivisible.org/resource/explainer-how-senate-democrats-can-delay-defy-trumps-agenda-procedural-hardball
a) Objecting to unanimous consent to stop debates and vote is a powerful delaying action. Sure, nominees would go through 1/
b) demanding quorum calls would force Republicans to come back to the chamber instead of doing whatever they want elsewhere (helping Trump? Currying favor with Musk?) throws a wrench into the works and makes the fascists 2/

First, it's not effective as a call to action.
Second, what happens when people start filling in the blanks on what it means when a US senator calls a "code red?"
This shouldn't ever be madlibs.
The house can vote no on the budget and force Republicans to figure their shit out to pass it.
Other than that they have messaging.
I think the messaging could be vastly better — interview some peoples harmed by the cuts
