Not sure who needs to hear this, but to become a naturalized US citizen, an immigrant green card holder must ALREADY pass a high school level test on American history and civics.
Most native-born Americans would fail the test if they had to take it

How the Social Security Administration and DOGE are gaslighting Americans
The Social Security Administration (SSA) sent an email on March 27 to beneficiaries saying that reports that field offices were closing was an invention of fake news media.

Agreed. IF Biden's administration understands the dangers of retaining Elon's contracts, AND they do nothing because trump will just "undo" it, THAT is obeying in advance. Throw sand in the gears. Make trump do his own dirty work. REVOKE his clearance and his contracts.
Why is the Biden administration silent on the richest man in the world doing the bidding of Putin?
WHY IS HE STILL A FEDERAL GOVT CONTRACTOR???
