Yesterday, a large-scale protest erupted outside the U.S. Treasury Department in Washington, D.C., as Democratic lawmakers rallied against Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency.
Protesters voiced objections, citing potential privacy breaches and the dangers of an unelected individual wielding influence over government operations. Senator Elizabeth Warren was among the most vocal critics, declaring, “No one elected Elon Musk to anything.”
