We want to take a moment to express how proud we are of you, America. You have stood up and spoken out every step of the way—especially when Congress and the media remained silent. When we called for help, you answered.

Thank you! A federal judge blocked U.S. DOGE employees from altering any records of payments at the Treasury Department while she weighs a request by public interest groups for a broader injunction against their activity. Thank you, U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly’s! 🙏

Musk is promoting a digitally altered video of Ilhan Omar, which makes it seem like she appeared at an event that she did not attend.
Also, it is not "literally" or figuratively "breaking the law" to advise someone of their legal rights, which is all Omar is doing in the video.

Thanks to Sen. Mark Warner, for releasing Memo from acting deputy attorney general Emil Bove to FBI leadership ordering the purge.
-Memo is a clear abuse of power and weaponization of DOJ
-Memo bolsters FBI lawsuits filed today. VERY clear the list is for retaliatory purposes

Chuck Schumer and those in Congress either need to go to NOAA HQ with federal law enforcement officers to arrest non-government people who are committing crimes by accessing government systems.
Or, they need to go on-air right now to explain why they're not!
