Weird: She is a remote worker. Guess its fine in the private sector.
SCOOP: Elon's favorite anon data expert, who's been appearing on NewsNation in sunglasses, isn't a govt. spending expert but rather a senior employee at an AI lending firm that's battled the CFPB for years.

DOGE has announced a total of 45 Social Security field office closures--so far.

SSA has 1,200 field offices where people can receive in-person help getting benefits, updating records, enrolling in Medicare & more.

They served 30M applicants & beneficiaries in 2023 — nearly 120K *per day*.

Notable pattern: Pluralities of non-college voters oppose Musk's role in both the CNN and WaPo polls. This shows that Musk/DOGE risk alienating key parts of the MAGA coalition and could help Dems win some of these voters back.

This is playing out over and over and over. Many federal workers are vets. Many of them have seen combat. There are no more dedicated, hard-working, skilled people.
Call your senators and congress. Tell them you don’t want your country’s warfighters treated like this.

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source.

Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

It's been foretold. This is just a run up to the constitutional crisis caused by Baron Trump trying to take office before he's 35. Trump is already slowing down.

It's idiotic to compare 80yo Trump to a 44yo Hitler.

It's young people with tons of energy & will power who become dictators for life.

This story written in 1896, foretells of a young president named Baron Trump being the last president.

All signs point to it being prophetic tale of things to come.

If an under 35 year old is somehow thrust into the presidency, it would create a constitutional crisis.

Here is a list of GOP held congressional districts with the narrowest victories in 2024, and the number of federal workers living in each.

The GOP has a very narrow majority in the house. Spread this to bring attention to those districts and inspire folks there to pressure their Reps to stop Elon.
