The media doesn't seem to be covering it, so y'all should know there is/was a massive rally outside the Treasury Department today, demanding the (unelected) Musk GTFO and hands off our government.
Meanwhile, actual Congressmen were refused entrance to the Treasury Building, apparently on Elon's orders.

The chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee is unsympathetic to Democratic pleas for another hearing with Kash Patel.
Senate Judiciary Chair Chuck Grassley said in a statement Tuesday his committee plans to take a final vote on FBI director nominee Kash Patel as early as next week.
The committee has a business meeting scheduled for Thursday to consider Patel's nomination.
Under committee rules, Democrats can delay the full committee vote for one more week, at which point senators are expected to advance the nominee along party lines to the full Senate for confirmation.

I am a poet and aware
Of some of the baggage
That comes with That
I belong to a protected class
And a gender, and I am aware
of that debt, Inherited and still owed
I am in love with us
And the temple we call Earth
I despair in our hatred
I create
Because that is when
I know the Universe
So now I am
