Hi Twitter. I’m the president of @Public_Citizen. I’ve been fighting corporate power my entire career. Please follow me so my social media team doesn’t get mad at me.

Trump suspension of tariff talks with Canada makes clear:. Trump is far more concerned with taking care of Big Tech's super profits than he is with taking care of workers or addressing trade imbalances.

Remember when Trump was going to Make America Healthy Again and take on the toxics poisoning us?. Apparently Trump doesn’t.

Trump & Musk are taking money from children and stuffing it in billionaires' pockets. That's what it means to slash the Dept of Ed while pushing for massive tax cuts for the super rich and corporations. "Shameful bullying" does not adequately describe the heinousness here.

Trump has put chemical industry reps in charge of chemical regulation at the EPA. Not exactly the pathway to end chemical exposures for kids, or anyone else.

These lies about Social Security are the prelude to vicious cuts.

Wait, did Trump just utter the word “gender?”.

The Trump cabinet is arguably the least meritorious ever.

Trump is actually engaging in widespread censorship, stripping science information that contains words like “gender” and “diverse,” no matter the context.

This is what authoritarianism looks like.

Of all the cruel and cockamamie things Musk and Trump have said, this, from Musk, may be the most revealing:. "The fundamental weakness of Western civilization is empathy.". In fact, it is fair to say, empathy is the single bedrock feature of a decent society.

For a guy who runs to court all the time, you sure have a poor understanding of the role of the judiciary.

Shut down DOGE is the easy answer.

Not under the impression that Jeff Bezos is an advocate for, or practitioner in, "free markets." . Monopoly = NOT free markets.

Congressional budget resolution is literally a vote to take money from the poor and vulnerable and give it to the rich and corporations. With special favors for Big Oil and Pentagon contractors.

Unless the courts, the Congress and above all the people bring you under control.

Different perspective: if the unelected, unconfirmed, highly conflicted, richest person in the world can shut down govt agencies, invade privacy, thwart congressional will and ignore the constitutional separation of powers, then we do not have a democracy ….

What happens if they reply with misleading and untrue statements, like those DOGE has posted about its purported but grossly inflated “savings”?.

Oh yeah, one other thing: The courts are stopping you and Trump because your actions are illegal and unconstitutional. Most of these aren’t close calls. Example: you do not have constitutional authority to feed congressionally created agencies to the wood chipper.

Also, by the way, I don’t recall you complaining about R states and corporations forum shopping to challenge Biden admin actions in courts they knew to be friendly.

UNLESS, the courts, Congress and a mobilized public can stop him and prove that the institutions of democracy do in fact still function.
