This is just insane and you all know that, right? Unelected, unfettered, untouchable, unsupported by facts and completely without transparency: www.nytimes.com/live/2025/02...
Musk makes sweeping claims about federal corruption, without providing evidence.
The billionaire, whose federal cost-cutting team has been operating in secrecy, asserted that he had uncovered waste and fraud across the bureaucracy, without providing evidence.

Government funding runs out on March 14. Republicans can’t pass a bill alone, so Democrats have real leverage here. We’re calling on Democrats to commit to withholding their votes and insist on an end to the Trump-Musk coup rampaging across the government.

I just met with Community Health Centers from Oregon that told me providers across our state are starting layoffs because of Trump's funding freeze. Donald Trump is already forcing kids and families to go without the health care they need.

Wired’s coverage these last two weeks has been exceptional. Truly the best kind of reporting. A worthy place for your subscription dollars.
DOGE operative Marko Elez got the ability to alter US Treasury payment system code on Feb 1, WIRED's sources say.
For days, Trump officials fed members of Congress and the press a different story.
Elez is out now for posts reading "I was racist before it was cool" and "normalize Indian hate."

The US Treasury Claimed DOGE Technologist Didn’t Have ‘Write Access’ When He Actually Did
Sources tell WIRED that the ability of DOGE's Marko Elez to alter code controlling trillions in federal spending was rescinded days after US Treasury and White House officials said it didn't exist.

My staff is hearing reports from Head Start programs in Oregon that they're still locked out of federal funds. My office is doing everything it can to get more info and get funds flowing before providers have to start closing their doors.

DOGE is not a real government agency.
DOGE has no authority to make spending decisions.
DOGE has no authority to shut programs down or to ignore federal law.

This is exactly what we want to see from Democrats right now! There’s no excuse for Senate Democrats to be confirming any of Trump’s nominees while MAGA’s illegal power grab continues. If you’re represented by Sen. @schatz.bsky.social, be sure to thank him for fighting back against President Musk.
Exclusive | Democratic Senator Says He Will Stall Trump Nominees Until USAID Is Back
The move would require Senate Majority Leader John Thune to use precious floor time to advance the president’s nominees through the confirmation process.

An EEOC admin. judge sent a fiery all-department email this AM alleging:
1. Trump's exec orders & instructions to target private citizens with them are illegal.
2. the judge had sent an earlier email with a similar tone yesterday that later vanished from their sent folder & colleagues' inboxes.

In plain English: Republicans in Congress plot more severe budget cuts to health care, nursing homes, and school lunches to pay for tax breaks for billionaires like Elon Musk.
It sounds absurd, but it’s true.

Why does it take months for me to get a pay issue fixed but Zaddy Muskoviski can take over the federal budget in 3 days
Have we considered deploying the Constitution, backbones, and the word “No” to the federal government?

I really don't want to see members of Congress posting on social media. I think you folks need to be in some meetings working on a plan to wrest control of our government back from that man from South Africa. Feels like there's nothing else you folks need to be doing.

One air traffic controller was doing the job of two, despite it being the most stressful job there is.
Their career is over, and they’ll be so wracked with guilt I’m worried about their survival. The many cascading failures were outside their control, but to their conscience, it hardly matters.
