Friend,
Donald Trump and Elon Musk are on an unconstitutional rampage, aiming for virtually every corner of the federal government.
These two right-wing billionaires are targeting nurses, scientists, teachers, daycare providers, judges, veterans, air traffic controllers, and nuclear safety inspectors... You name it, no one is safe.
Entire agencies have been nuked overnight, including USAID, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the EPA, and the National Labor Relations Board. Other targets on their hit list include the Department of Education, FEMA, the National Institutes of Health, food stamps, Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.
It's an unprecedented disaster. A five-alarm fire. But there will be a reckoning.
The people did not vote for this. The people do not want this dystopian hellscape that hides behind claims of "efficiency," but in reality, it is a giveaway to corporate interests and the libertarian dreams of far-right oligarchs like Musk.
Common Dreams is playing a vital role by reporting day and night on this orgy of corruption and greed as well as what everyday people can do to organize and fight back.
We've never faced a more perilous time for working people, democracy, and the world. We all have a role to play in turning back this destructive tide. So if you believe in our work, we need you now more than ever.
Your gift of any amount — $8, $18, $27, $85, or whatever makes sense for you — helps support the independent and fiercely unafraid journalism of Common Dreams.
