Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and other Senate Democrats hold a press conference attacking Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
DOGE was granted access to the U.S. Treasury payment system last week, leading to Musk revealing suspect payments made by the United States government:
The @DOGE team discovered, among other things, that payment approval officers at Treasury were instructed always to approve payments, even to known fraudulent or terrorist groups.

They literally never denied a payment in their entire career.
Not even once. https://t.co/kInoGWdw4C
Democrat Sen. Elizabeth Warren attacked the access granted to Musk and DOGE on Sunday:
No one elected Elon Musk.

As Donald Trump allows Musk to access people’s personal information and shut down government funding, Republicans in Washington will also own the consequences.
We must do everything in our power to push back and protect people from harm.
