Climate change is set to cost the U.S. economy $2 TRILLION this decade. Instead of that financial burden being placed on polluting industries, Trump is transfering it onto individual Americans. We are quite literally going to pay the price for Big Oil's destruction of our planet thanks to Trump.

So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

This comment on r/fednews really stood out to me. Trump and Musk want people to think they're firing do-nothing "bureaucrats," but they're really getting rid of people dedicated to serving this country and keeping it operational. I hope these stories get told.

BIG NEWS: We're holding DOGE accountable. It's not "efficient" to allow Elon Musk's operatives to mess with the systems that send Social Security checks or pay for your mom’s doctor through Medicare. It's dangerous for the economy and a breach of privacy for millions of Americans.
