Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

Taxpayers pay Elon Musk $8M a day and he’s already got 2 new government contracts totaling $38.4B since Trump came into office. DOGE isn’t about America. Boy didn’t want the gravy train to stop… youtu.be/j73qj9DbkWg

This one was censored in the US so not sure how many of you caught this before, but little X knows about the election rigging. Which is why Musk has effectively kidnapped him and doesn't allow him to be with his mother or other family.

The cybertruck sucks, and it failed, so Musk rescued it through a corrupt government scheme that is technically a federal crime American taxpayers are going to spend hundreds of millions of dollars on a vehicle that everyone serious agrees is absolute garbage as a matter of construction and safety

Treasury Department officials admitted today that the agency “mistakenly” and “briefly” gave a member of Musk’s DOGE team the power to alter a sensitive federal payments database. The disclosure undercuts the Trump administration’s repeated claims that access was limited to a “read-only” basis.

We cannot ignore how shockingly abnormal it is for a private citizen — who himself has contracts with the federal government — to dispatch a private army of executives, data experts and recent high schoolers to dictate policies to federal agencies. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/elon...

"America rejected kingly power once, and we must do so now,” writes Constitutional law expert @anthonymkreis.bsky.social. In 18th-century England, laws were changed at the king’s whim and legislative authority was subordinate to executive power. Deja vu?
