Musk and Trump illegally fired 200,000 essential government workers. Services we all rely on will soon cease to exist. Make America Great Again, my ass.

Trump Officials Escalate Layoffs, Targeting Most of 200,000 Workers on Probation

Workers across the federal government were terminated on Thursday after the federal government’s human resources division advised agencies to lay off most probationary employees.

This was a hell of a week! Puppet master Elon loomed over Trump in the Oval Office and the House GOP started to figure out how to pay for their billionaire tax cuts. Spoiler alert, probably by cutting vital programs like Medicaid and SNAP.

OOPS: House Republicans just admitted that Social Security is next on the chopping block. They want to give the ultra-rich a $4.5 trillion tax cut — and make middle-class families foot the bill.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govFeb 13(source)

$400 million contract while he continues to slash and burn vital programs? Sounds like corruption to me. Time to pass my ELON MUSK Act!

State Dept. Plans $400 Million Purchase of Armored Tesla Cybertrucks

The department plans to buy armored Tesla vehicles. Elon Musk, who is leading efforts to cut government spending, has won more than $13 billion in government contracts in the past five years.

Trump illegally fired a member of the NLRB, a nonpartisan board that helps working people stand up to abusive employers. Unacceptable! Join us by speaking out & putting pressure on Trump to reverse this idiotic, illegal, and illogical decision.

ICYMI: Donald Trump issued an unprecedented and illegal attack on the National Labor Relations Board by firing a Democratic Board member. He’s blatantly violating the law to attack workers’ rights. That's why we led 265 bipartisan members calling on Trump to #ReinstateWilcox

Politics isn’t a spectator sport. Let’s organize and make our voices heard.

Anyone who’s taken a high school civics class knows that Congress has the power of the purse, not the President. That hasn’t stopped Trump & unelected billionaire Musk from illegally freezing funds that have been passed into law.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govFeb 12(source)

It's no accident that billionaires have a lower tax rate than teachers and nurses – the tax code isn't built for working people. On the second episode of my podcast, I speak with Erica Payne, President of @patrioticmillionaires.org on what we need to do to unrig the tax code.

There's an incredible Congressional tone deafness to the moment that we're in. We've got agencies being dismantled by an unelected billionaire and a guy named Big Balls. Meanwhile, Congress is raking leaves as a forest fire roars behind us.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govFeb 12(source)

While Elon Musk tries to gut the federal government, he JUST received ANOTHER contract worth more than $38 million! My ELON MUSK Act would stop this grift!

Outrage after Elon Musk's SpaceX awarded $38M government contract

The federal government awarded Elon Musk's company a $38.85 million contract on Monday as the billionaire works to slash other contracts.

Elon Musk is hacking away at vital government programs to justify another tax cut for billionaires like him and other members of Mar-a-Lago. youtu.be/REcMzP8iEfs

Parsley is a nice garnish, but it really doesn't add much to your dinner. And just like parsley, the House Republican majority is pretty much useless, standing by as Musk and Trump try to rip up the Constitution. youtube.com/shorts/WeuHp...

PEPFAR is a cornerstone of global health progress and U.S. diplomacy, with bipartisan support spanning decades. My letter to Secretary Rubio with @robinlynnekelly.bsky.social and 109 other House Democrats urges him to restore this vital funding before even more people needlessly die.

If you get screwed by a bank, the CFPB has your back. It doesn’t care who you voted for. Elon Musk’s hostile takeover of our government won’t help you or me, just his billionaire buddies who screwed you over in the first place. x.com/jmargetta/st...

NIH funds groundbreaking research to help cure cancer, Alzheimer's, and other diseases that rob families of loved ones. This bonehead idea to cut its funding won’t make Americans better off, only makes finding a cure that much further away. www.jsonline.com/story/news/e...

UW-Madison says NIH funding cuts will delay 'lifesaving' research for cancer, Alzheimer's

UW-Madison said reductions in NIH funding will "ultimately harm the livelihoods of real people across Wisconsin and the country."
