DOGE recommended firing workers at:
-FDA, which oversees Neuralink
-FAA, which oversees SpaceX
-USAID, which probed Starlink
-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.
"Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

Our insurance company just wrote to us that the life saving medication our 9-year-old daughter needs to live is rejected because they decided—CONTRARY TO HER DOCTOR—that it is "Not Medically Necessary."
Her meds costs ~$200K/year. Insurance industry raked in $88 BILLION in profits last year.

We don't yet know the extent of the damage done to our workforce. We continue to receive reports of past, ongoing, and future terminations. Public servants being let go chaotically with little warning. Those who remain face overwhelming workloads and wonder what acts they will be ordered to commit.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges.
This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

Trump: “We have people that shouldn’t be on (social security), and those people we have to weed out.”
I’ve paid into social security since I was 17—it wasn’t a donation to the treasury. When the time comes: Bitch Better Have My Money!
