Infuriating! 😡 Don’t Cut My Medicaid! The majority of my son’s medical team are in Austin (1.5 hr drive), some in Houston (3 hrs), one in Dallas (5 hrs). Telehealth appts are needed & necessary! My son has extreme car anxiety, not to mention wear and tear on our car, gas! 🤬 And we’re not alone!

Thanks to a loud public outcry and a relentless media campaign from outdoors influencers the Trump administration is reversing its plan to eliminate thousands of national parks jobs. Amazing work everyone. Keep speaking up, it matters!

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau makes sure you don't get scammed by digital payment companies and car lenders. Elon Musk’s role as CEO of X Money and Tesla makes DOGE’s takeover of the CFPB a clear conflict of interest. @schiff.senate.gov and I are pressing for answers.

Last night, Trump promised he wouldn't touch Medicaid. This morning, Trump endorsed the House Republican plan to slash Medicaid. It's smoke and mirrors: Trump and Republicans are plotting to take away health care from millions of people to pay for tax breaks for billionaires.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has returned $21 billion to people who were cheated by big banks and credit card companies. So why are Trump and Musk gutting an agency that's returning money to people who were scammed? For them, this has never been about cutting costs.

There is no legal architecture that allows Elon Musk, the richest man in the world, to remake the entire federal government without running afoul of criminal conflict of interest laws. In other words, there's no way that his role is legal, constitutional, or compatible with democratic governance.

I'm sorry, but "they took over the whole federal payments system, fired the career staff, and won't let anybody see what they're doing" is not a situation in which you wait for more information. It's a situation in which you assume the worst. There's no explanation for it other than rampant crimes.

This language describes a coup. You have to be a government employee, subject to the rules & procedures that bind gov employees, to do this kind of work. This is a blatant abuse of the public trust by the Trump administration, a true 5-alarm fire. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...
