Elon backtracked on DOGE savings goals from $1 trillion to $150 billion.

But watchdogs report only $12.6 billion in verifiable savings.

That represents just 0.173% of the U.S. federal budget for 2025.

We're losing vital government services for basically nothing in return.

15 years ago the Supreme Court decided corporations are people under the First Amendment.

Today, billionaire political spending is up 160-fold since that ruling.

Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

After massive public backlash, the Social Security Administration is rolling back its disastrous cuts to phone services.

This is a huge victory for the public against DOGE's rampage.

Keep up the fight.

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source.

Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

This is how our government has been corrupted: 

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office. 
2) Elected officials rewrite the rules in the donors' favor. 
3) Donors make a huge profit. 
4) Repeat.

For the sake of democracy, we must get Big Money out of politics.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

A judge just blocked Elon Musk and co-president Donald Trump from firing the financial cops at the CFPB who protect consumers from Wall Street scams.

When you see government as your opportunity to turn a profit, you will never serve the public good. This mindless approach to slashing the federal workforce and gutting vital programs and protections will make Trump's government incapable of delivering for the American people.

Look, I am all in for maximizing government efficiency. I even passed a law that got way more transparency into how we’re spending. But taking a hatchet to all federal funding, to agencies that save Americans money, to critical medical grants… that just creates chaos & disorder.

As the oligarchy is conspicuously exposed, Americans will see as clearly as we did at the end of the first Gilded Age that we have no option but to take back power.

Only then can we continue the essential work of America.
