If the Treasury Secretary does not remove DOGE’s access to the Treasury payment systems at once:

Congress must immediately act.

That is why Rep. Jeffries and I will work together on legislation to stop unlawful meddling in the Treasury Department’s payment systems.

Former head of US AID Global Health said on Fox (yes, on Fox) that the budget is half the size of the budget of the hospital where he is now a surgeon. That serves millions of people and stems diseases like ebola to protect us from it. Why is Musk out to kill it? What does he have to gain?

This is what we mean when we talk about corporate greed: Starbucks gave its CEO $96 million for just 4 months of work. Meanwhile, Starbucks is refusing to offer a raise of more than 50 cents an hour to 12,000 union workers.

That's unacceptable. Starbucks must end their greed.

The president can veto or support legislation. He can make recommendations to Congress. But he doesn't have the unilateral right to change laws.

Trump has very little respect for the rule of law & our Constitution. He is moving us toward authoritarianism.

We must stop him.

When millions of struggling workers want to join unions, Trump's decision to neuter the NLRB is blatantly illegal. It is also a huge gift to Musk, Bezos & other billionaires who want to abolish the only federal agency that can stop their union busting.

Just like Bezos and Musk wished, Trump neutered the National Labor Relations Board.

Now, union-busting corporations can exploit their employees with impunity.

Last I checked, that's not standing with workers the way Trump promised.

Our education system didn’t fail, it was torpedoed by years of deliberate underinvestment because conservatives know the undereducated are easier to control.
