AOC: I don’t care what Elon Musk is doing behind the presidential seal, but in this country we hate Nazis. Kind of like a foundational defining thing. Two of the foundational things about American history is that we beat the confederates and we beat the Nazis.

Wait, I thought TikTok was evil and a threat to national security.
And yet they appear to be coordinating with Donald Trump to make him look good.
Surely, this means he is also evil and a national security threat.

Totally on Musk brand. Futile from the get go.
News Analysis: Elon Musk's so-called Department of Government Efficiency will face a daunting reality. Any effort to slash the U.S. government and its 2.3 million civilian workers will likely face resistance in Congress, lawsuits from activist groups and delays mandated by federal rules.
Musk’s Slashing of the Federal Budget Faces Big Hurdles
