This is how I would respond to the email Musk has had sent to government employees (not legal advice). 1. Refused to violate the law. 2. Refused to violate the Constitution. 3. Refused to bow or scrape. 4. Refused to bend a knee. 5. Deleted this stupid email.

Elon Musk is an idiot on an almost inconceivable scale. He had his high-school toadies pull a random list from a database he doesn’t understand, and on that basis alone decided that 60 MILLION SOCIAL SECURITY ENROLLEES, out of 72 million total, are fraudulent. 83% fraudulent!

Top USAID officials are trying to create a false narrative that life-saving aid has continued despite Trump’s blanket halt to foreign aid. Our @nytimes.com reporting shows the exact opposite. USAID even issued an internal email to stop applications for waivers: www.nytimes.com/2025/02/12/u...

Elon Musk is serving as Trump’s hatchetman, slashing government spending on everything from dying babies in warzones to Americans displaced by natural disasters. Meanwhile, Musk himself is a “walking conflict of interest,” whose companies are raking in more federal dollars.

Stopping the Trump-Musk assault on constitutional democracy & the rule of law is the only thing that should matter to Democrats now. Fighting back, not fretting about 2024, also happens to be the path to political recovery. If you agree, please share my essay. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Just to be clear, this means Trump’s U.S. Attorney for D.C. has fired almost every domestic violence prosecutor in the office. And because we’re not a state, D.C.’s attorney general can’t bring felony charges against domestic abusers. www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

With the EO that Trump just signed that bans transgender care for anyone under 18, trans youth suicide rates which are already disproportionately high, will skyrocket. I'm begging cis people to stand with us and fight this cruel war that has been waged on the 0.6% of the American population.

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service. “Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.

Trump and his advisors are high on their own supply after getting away with so much in their first week. But they are going to regret this one. It’ll devastate red states that rely on this money for basic programs that keep people fed, clothed, alive. A huge unforced error politically and legally.

Trump is such a vile, disgusting, cruel, selfish, and heartless man. He doesn’t have a shred of human decency — none whatsoever. No compassion. No mercy. No shame. No heart. No soul. Of course, everyone knows that, but it still needs to be said at every opportunity.
