Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do.

Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.

Here are the 15 Democrats who voted to confirm Scott Bessent as Treasury Secretary, the man who has granted Elon Musk full access to the federal government's payments system.

The world’s richest man who no one elected just walked into the US Treasury, stole your Social Security number, and Trump let him. You deserve to know why this is happening - call your member of Congress and Senators (202) 224-3121 and ask why.

I can think of at least eight federal laws that have been broken by Musk and his goons over the last few days, and at least two provisions of the U.S. Constitution.

They must be stopped.

The CFPB is the financial watchdog for the American people.

The agency has returned $20B to the victims of financial fraud and abuse since 2011.

Trump fired its director and put his treasury secretary, a Wall Street hedge fund manager, in charge.

Guess what happened next...

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is a consumer watchdog agency formed in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis. Elon Musk wants to “delete” it.

Tariff-inflated prices pass the pain along to consumers, many of whom voted for Trump.

Let me emphasize: Elon Musk has not been confirmed by Congress. His “department” was never actually enacted. No one other than Trump has given him any authority.

Democrats and any Republicans with a spine need to step in and stop this madness.

So the world's richest man spends a fortune backing Trump and is given the go-ahead to...

-Run an "efficiency" agency despite having billions in govt contracts

-Replace civil servants with his own cronies

-Gain access to sensitive Treasury payment systems

See the problem?
