The anti-Musk protest movement is expected to ramp up with Congress on recess

Donald Trump is the president, but billionaire Elon Musk is the focus for thousands of Democratic activists launching a protest campaign this week to fight the Trump administration’s push to gut federal health, education and human services agencies. Hundreds of protests are scheduled outside congressional offices and Tesla dealerships, with organizers hoping to send a pointed message to members of Congress who are on recess this week. The backlash still hasn’t approached the intensity of protests during and after Trump’s first inauguration eight […]

Trump moves with dizzying speed on his to-do list. But there are warning signs in his first month

As President Donald Trump approaches the first-month mark in his second term, he has moved with dizzying speed and blunt force to reorder American social and political norms and the economy while redefining the U.S. role in the world. At the same time, he has empowered Elon Musk, an unelected, South African-born billionaire, to help engineer the firing of thousands of federal employees and potentially shutter entire agencies created by Congress. Those efforts have largely overshadowed Trump’s crackdowns on immigration and the U.S.-Mexico border, and his efforts to remake […]

Linda McMahon, President Donald Trump‘s nominee for secretary of the U.S. Department of Education, vaguely responded to questions from U.S. senators about whether Black history courses in public schools would violate Trump’s anti-DEI order in education. And while she expressed support for continued funding for HBCUs, McMahon signaled that some schools could lose federal funding for so-called DEI programs. During her confirmation hearing before the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee on Thursday, McMahon was asked directly by Senator […]

Order to drop NYC Mayor Eric Adams’ case roils Justice Department as high-ranking officials resign

Manhattan’s top federal prosecutor, Danielle Sassoon, and five high-ranking Justice Department officials resigned Thursday after she refused an order to drop corruption charges against New York City Mayor Eric Adams — a stunning escalation in a dayslong standoff over the Trump administration prioritizing political aims over criminal culpability. Sassoon, a Republican who was interim U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, accused the department of acceding to a “quid pro quo” — dropping the case to ensure Adams’ help with Trump’s immigration agenda — and […]
