Elon Musk dismantled USAID as it was investigating Starlink for shutting down satellites over Ukraine to help Russia.
Elon Musk shut down the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau as it was about to regulate big tech financial operations.
Don’t be surprised. This is EXACTLY how oligarchies work.

For our non-CDC friends "the juice is worth the squeeze" is an idiosyncratic phrase often repeated at CDC for unknown reasons. We are now repurposing it for the fight. Keep up the pressure!

We were just told that they won’t let us in. They are denying entry to 2 dozen members of Congress. Elon Musk has all our private information & we have no idea what he’s doing with it. This is happening completely behind closed doors. HELL NO. It’s illegal. We demand oversight!

We desperately, urgently need a media that isn’t afraid to name this as the evisceration of the federal government. That is what is going on. We cannot only be comfortable using such language when the situation is far away in time or space. It’s happening here. We need to be clear.

Trump is on his way to creating a government of billionaires, by billionaires, for billionaires.
BREAKING: Trump's wealthy cabinet nominees and transition officials are worth a combined $313 BILLION.
That's 616x higher than the mean wealth of the typical American household.
This is how you build a system that only works for the wealthy and their corporations.
