Sigh… First, a President doesn’t have the authority to change law- to do this- only Congress does. And second, why are either move a good idea? Student loans are not a small business & RFK Jr knows nothing about the IDEA.

Unaccountable billionaires are trying to fire the federal workforce and gut essential programs that working people rely on every day.

@deptofworkers.bsky.social is here to fight back and hold Elon Musk accountable for his anti-worker, anti-union actions. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/05/u...
A.F.L.-C.I.O. Pushes Back on Elon Musk’s Campaign Against Federal Workers
The campaign by the nation’s largest federation of unions is called the Department of People Who Work for a Living, a play on Mr. Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency.

Leader Jeffries: One or two puppet masters weigh in, and the MAGA Republicans decide to do the bidding of the wealthy, the well-off, the well-connected millionaires and billionaires, not working-class people.

Republicans would rather cut taxes for billionaire donors than fund research for children with cancer.

That is why our country is on the brink of a government shutdown that will crash the economy, hurt working class Americans and likely be the longest in history.

Welcome back to the MAGA swamp.

We visited a powerful exhibition today at the National Archives
called “Power & Light”, featuring photographs from the 1946 Coal Survey. If you are in DC, put it on your list of things to do. More info on the exhibition is available here:

A handful of billionaires now have unprecedented control over banking, the food we eat, the health care we can access and, now, the information we receive.

This is what oligarchy looks like.

Each of Trump's proposed appointments is a surprise. It is comforting to think that he is simply a vengeful old man, lashing out. This is unlikely. He and Musk and Putin have been talking for years. And the whole idea was that this time he had a plan.
