America is in crisis, with the power and influence of DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency), headed by the wealthiest person on the planet, Elon Musk.
Musk and Donald Trump and Russell Vought of the Office of Management and Budget, along with a host of others, has declared war on the federal government and its agencies, and massive job firings and budget cuts are occurring, without any semblance of sanity or consideration of the impact of such actions.
We are starting to see rallies, complaints, constituent meetings with members of Congress, protesting the disaster in the making.
These rallies, protests, demonstrations must be magnified, including a March on Washington to demand the power and influence of DOGE and Elon Musk come to an end.
The idea that the Republican Congress is moving to promote massive tax cuts for millionaires and billionaires, and use the hatchet to gut government agencies and programs which are crucial to the security and safety of Americans, is maddening!
In Trump and Elon Musk’s latest move targeting the federal workforce, employees began receiving emails Saturday afternoon asking them to explain what work they did last week, as Musk announced that “failure to respond will be taken as a resignation.”
