Hopped on @msnbc.com to talk about Musk’s takeover of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau — the agency created to protect you from greedy Wall Street investors.

Just heard from the U of M about the impacts of Trump/Musk’s funding cuts to health research.
They painted a grim picture — cutting off funding designed to help unlock new cures and treatments that save lives.
Republicans need to grow a spine and stand up to this.
They control Congress. They control the Executive. The last check on their power grab is the judicial system – and that’s their next target.
Will any Republicans speak out against this?

Today, I’m calling on our brave public servants:
I’m launching a new portal for anyone who wants to expose corruption, abuses of power, and threats to public safety with the legal protections of being a whistleblower.

MN is proud to help feed the world (in fact, this program was created by Hubert Humphrey). Now not only is that in jeopardy, but millions of dollars in income for farmers is too? Disgusting.
This food, which we’ve already paid for, is waiting on ships to be delivered to those who need it.

Every committee in Congress should hold urgent hearings on Musk's illegal takeover of the federal government.
He is causing real harm to the American people. I've been demanding hearings in the committees I sit on — the Republicans in charge need to DO THEIR JOBS.
During the Gales of November, when extremely strong winds have been known to produce swells that can crush boats, NOAA is especially vital to the Northland.
These are the people who monitor and publish Lake Superior's conditions every day. Minnesotans along the North Shore rely on NOAA to know whether or not it’s safe to go out on the water.
These agencies and their staff do real work that keeps us safe, it just goes unnoticed - until they’re gone.
Remember when Trump froze the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law on his first day in office?
In the midst of all the chaos, that freeze is still in place and is creating real uncertainty for road projects that have already started. When the construction drags on, you know who to blame.
Elon Musk is bringing in these kinds of guys to root around in people’s data.
I linked DOGE staffer Marko Elez to a deleted X account that advocated repealing the Civil Rights Act, backed a “eugenic immigration policy,” and wrote, “You could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity."
He just resigned. www.wsj.com/tech/doge-st...
I’ve been getting more calls into my office in the last week than any time I can remember.
People are mad about it and they should be.
Musk is unpopular because Americans can see that he’s running rampant inside the federal government and no one believes he’s doing this to help us — he’s doing it to help himself.
That’s what corruption looks like.
Elon Musk and his interns meddling in aviation safety is truly terrifying.
The back and forth on this funding freeze has sowed completely unnecessary chaos.
Just heard a Minnesota anti-hunger group that supplies food shelves with fresh, nutritious food from Minnesota farmers still can’t access federal funding.
They’ve had to pause some of their work. It’s causing a lot of uncertainty for families trying to figure out how to put food on the table.
We don’t have a Senate majority, but that doesn’t mean we’re going to make this easy for them.
I refuse to sit around and let them install the architect of Project 2025 into the federal government without a fight.
My constituents are demanding: We need answers now.
