Tides Turn Against Musk, Trump Makes Troubling Crackdowns

Donald loses support from key groups and judges rule against him, while Elon hits a new roadblock — but the rest of the government is in serious trouble

Though the last 24 hours have been as chaotic as ever, not all the news was bad.

Proud Boys lose name to Black church they vandalized back in 2020

Yesterday, a judge awarded the Metropolitan African Methodist Episcopal Church in D.C. control over the Proud Boys' trademark after members of the neo-Nazi group vandalized the church during a pro-Trump rally.

Last night, Trump’s team filed a motion barring access to all but two officials, who they say are strictly limited to “read-only” access.

I guess they saw the writing on the wall that Musk and his team would be in violation of privacy laws, so they forced DOGE to back down from their takeover of social security payments…for now.

Let’s be real

It’s hard to celebrate anything these days as it could all seemingly be reversed at a moment’s notice, but nevertheless, this is a temporary win for the American people.

However, not so much what’s happening in other parts of the government:
