Donald Trump has given an unelected billionaire top-level security clearances and unfettered access to the U.S. Treasury — creating chaos and concern among the American people.

Between handing over the data of millions of Americans and waging a trade war that will hurt the pockets of everyday people, Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and the extreme right are waging a class war on working-class people.
