Good to see this. Burning down the fed govt and walking away is not how it works.
Elon's legacy ranges from gutting cancer research to setting in motion millions of deaths from starvation or disease.
I'll be pushing for Congress to hold Elon & DOGE accountable—for every act of corruption, every disastrous consequence, and every law they have broken.

This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.
Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.
