Musk’s status as a “special government employee” limits him to 130 days in the executive branch. However, despite working daily—documented by his own X posts—they claim he only works one day a week, effectively stretching his limit to 130 weeks. This needs to be brought to Congress—please share.

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

Trump just directed the DOJ to stop enforcing an anti-corruption law prohibiting corporations from bribing foreign governments.
Tasked with implementing this order is none other than former corporate lobbyist, and current AG, Pam Bondi.
It's open season for corruption.

"As a politician, Trump positioned himself as standing above the corruption of the system," Jonathan Chait writes. What seems clear now "is that Trump genuinely believes in corruption as a normal and acceptable way to do business."

DOGE's next target is the CFPB, which has returned $20B to the victims of financial fraud and abuse since 2011.
Trump just fired its pro-consumer director and had his Treasury Secretary, a hedge fund manager, halt the CFPB's work.
This is a coup against the American people.

As Trump tries to dismantle the Department of Education, remember that his plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% would give the 100 largest corporations a tax cut larger than the entire department's K-12 budget.
