Republicans could stop this. Granted, Democratic lawmakers have been slow to sharpen their rhetoric (though over the last week they have become more vocal). Still, it is Republicans who are in power and it is they who must shoulder the blame.

Millions of Americans — including many who have been purged from their positions of responsibility — are standing up to Trump and Musk’s tyranny. Congressional switchboards are ringing off the hook.
We are beginning to flood Trump and Musk’s zone. Let’s flood it out.

This morning, we won a court order blocking Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, from accessing Americans’ private data.
Musk and his DOGE employees must destroy all records they've obtained.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again: no one is above the law.

We're suing over the free rein Donald Trump gave Elon Musk and DOGE to access Americans’ private information.
Musk and DOGE want to use this information to cut vital services that Americans rely on — from health care to education.
This is unacceptable and illegal.

1. Today the NIH director issued a new directive slashing overhead rates to 15%.
I want to provide some context on what that means and why it matters.

As 'Fork' resignation deadline arrives, a federal judge will consider a stay
The Trump administration has given more than 2 million federal employees until Thursday to decide whether to stay or go. A last-minute court hearing may throw a wrench into the administration's plans.

Republicans ran into the room to SHEILD Elon Musk from having to come and speak to Congress. They want their billionaire takeover done behind closed doors. The people deserve transparency. No one elected Elon Musk.
I’m in Oversight Committee right now. Ranking Member Connolly just called for a vote to subpoena Elon Musk. Republicans out-number us on this committee, but many aren’t in the room. We’ll see who wins this vote. We deserve transparency and answers.

This is exactly what we want to see from Senate Democrats. Russell Vought is the mastermind of Trump’s sweeping (and illegal) spending freeze, and his nomination should be withdrawn. Democrats are starting to fight back, and we need to encourage them to keep going: indivisible.org/resource/cal...

As bodies are still being pulled from the Potomac, Donald Trump and his grossly incompetent administration are blaming this deadly crash on minorities and white women. This is disgusting, racist and sexist. Their reckless actions have consequences and they should be held accountable.
