Friend,
It’s only been two weeks since Trump returned to the White House, but his
“advisor” Elon Musk has already seized control of major government
agencies – and he’s tearing them apart from the inside.
At the stroke of Trump’s pen, the newly created “Department of Government
Efficiency” (DOGE) has begun its aggressive restructuring of federal
agencies, taking control of critical institutions like the Office of
Personnel Management (OPM) and the U.S. Agency for International
Development (USAID). Under Musk’s control, DOGE is impeding oversight,
sidelining career experts, and handing unprecedented power to unelected
operatives loyal to his corporate interests.

demanding immediate action. >>
Musk’s so-called “efficiency reforms” are nothing more than a hostile
takeover of our democracy. Under his direction:
🚨 USAID has been gutted. Staff have been ordered to stay home, while DOGE
moves to shut down the agency entirely. This is the backbone of America’s
global humanitarian aid – wiped out with a single directive.
🚨 The U.S. Treasury’s financial data is now in Musk’s hands. Reports
indicate that DOGE operatives have been granted unprecedented access to
the confidential information within the federal payment system, raising
grave concerns about who controls Social Security, government payrolls,
and critical financial transactions.
🚨 Unqualified cronies are replacing experienced civil servants. Musk has
appointed a group of sycophants, including recent high school graduates
and personal allies, to oversee billion-dollar programs. Career
professionals are being purged while the government is run like a rogue
Silicon Valley startup.
This is not the normal churn of a new administration. This is a full-scale
coup by a hostile billionaire, and the consequences are chilling. We are
watching in real time as the foundations of our democracy are gutted and
dismantled by oligarchs who see government as just another way to enrich
themselves.
Congress must act immediately. Investigations must begin into Musk’s
access to confidential data, his reckless dismantling of federal agencies,
and the dangerous precedent he is setting.
[ [link removed] ]We need every representative in Congress to hear the alarm bells
ringing. Add your name now to demand urgent congressional investigations
into Elon Musk’s abuses of power. >>
Let’s do this together.
