As always, follow the $$
Just ask yourself every time Trump does something which billionaire it helps. Tariff’s on steel have nothing to do with helping us. It’s a favor for friends. Closed CFPB? Happy bankers and credit card companies. It’s all a cash grab.

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

He's already been impeached twice and it never did a damn bit of good. The House & Senate under GOP leadership will never impeach him again and even if they did, they won't back it up with removal from office.

Senior U.S. District Judge John Coughenour: “It has become ever more apparent that, to our president the rule of law is but an impediment to his policy goals, the rule of law is, according to him, something to navigate around or simply ignore, whether that be for political or personal gain."
Reagan-appointed judge again blocks Trump’s unconstitutional attempt to rescind birthright citizenship.

If we had a healthy legislative branch right now, @elonmusk would be hauled in front of Congress today & asked questions under oath. There’d be immediate hearings/congressional oversight. But that’s if we currently had the legislative branch our Founders envisioned. And we don’t.

This is a coup. Call it a "soft coup" or a "bloodless" coup (for now, let's hope it stays that way) but it's a coup. And it's not even Trump's coup...It's Elon Musk's coup.
The Trumpers are too stupid to be angry about their guy handing over his power to this stooge.

All true. Even were it not, one could argue that, given the authority Musk is exercising, and his lack of accountability to anyone (other than perhaps Trump), he is serving as a principal executive officer under the Appointments Clause, and is acting unlawfully unless confirmed by the Senate.
What this long and detailed NYT piece calmly calls an “extraordinary flexing of power by a private individual” is in fact a blatantly unconstitutional usurpation of Congress’s Article I powers and delegation of the President’s Article II duties.

Senator Andy Kim just went to the USAID building, talked to the security guard there to confirm employees are being barred entry, and then did a press gaggle right there in front to call it out.
This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.

The only thing that's going to get Musk gone is for Trump to turn on him. That'll happen real fast if Trump feels like he's being upstaged/outdone by Elon/Elon is becoming more "popular" than him. Err...PRESIDENT Elon. Who needs Trump as POTUS when we've got such a "take charge" guy?

A witch hunt has begun at the FBI. Employees are required to provide information by Tuesday and are being encouraged to report on their coworkers. The FBI questionnaire asks agents about their roles in various cases, including whether they made arrests or appeared in court, among other details.
