This is a takeover of the federal government by an unelected billionaire.
NEW: Sources tell my office that Treasury Secretary Bessent has granted DOGE *full* access to this system. Social Security and Medicare benefits, grants, payments to government contractors, including those that compete directly with Musk's own companies. All of it.

I get where this comes from. They poll test 30 different lines and choose the one that gets the most "agree strongly/somewhat" responses.

I'm in favor of testing messaging. But think about how your message will spread. NOBODY'S gonna to hear your boring ass response to the coup.
You’re worried about tomato prices.

Wait till Trump’s Mexico tariffs raise your tomato prices.

Keep calling and emailing your Congressional representatives and Senators (D or R). No on RFK Jr., stop DOGE access to federal payment systems, no more yes on confirmations until all the executive branch illegal and unconstitutional actions can be investigated!!

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Trying to boycott Meta, Amazon, and Target as much as possible, but it's not easy. We like Target's free drive-up option for groceries and household items because we can do that with the kids and not have them looking on shelves, asking for everything in the store.
