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.

How the Muskrat is messing with your social security, your religion, and everything else He and his goons must be stopped

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.

CFPB halts work after Trump appoints Bessent as acting head The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is a consumer watchdog agency formed in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis. Elon Musk wants to β€œdelete” it.

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...

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 β€œdepartment” 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.

Call your rep now (202) 224-3121

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?

Replacing civil servants with loyalists.

Upending the lives of millions who rely on federal programs.

Grotesquely blaming "DEI" for disaster.

Trump wants to consolidate power through divide-and-conquer tactics. We must stand together and fight back. youtu.be/wSYbNcjGjhA?...

Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.
