Summary
Rep. Seth Magaziner (D-R.I.) called Elon Musk a “coward” if he refuses to testify before Congress about the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and its role in federal spending cuts.
House Republicans blocked a Democratic attempt to subpoena Musk.
Concerns over DOGE’s actions include efforts to dismantle USAID and access Treasury systems, potentially affecting Social Security, Medicare, and tax records.
Magaziner criticized the lack of transparency and congressional oversight, arguing Musk has no authority to unilaterally withhold congressionally appropriated funds.
Gee don’t hold back or anything. What a milquetoast callout.
It’s all you can expect from a party who is so terrified of getting their hands dirty in a fight to actually do anything useful other than whine and complain.
Trump is the bully on the playground, and the Democrats are the one kid who won’t fight back because “it’s against his principles” and just get his ass kicked over and over.
