More than 10,000 protesters gathered in New York City on President’s Day to oppose the Trump administration and the Ellon Musk government’s efficiency.
It was one of the many protests in major cities across the country on Monday, and small protests popped out of the Tesla agency across the country on the same long weekend.
The protesters who talked with Techrunch at Washington Square Park raised concerns about Doge’s access to millions of Americans’ sensitive data and the dismantling of the federal organization of the group. They said that work with MUSK’s Doge is a hidden attempt to catch financial power and expressed frustration that the school had an unprecedented level of power for the federal government.
“(Musk) is very dangerous to access personal data.” He is basically a futurist fanboy who lives in science fantasy and tries to implement it. ”
A 55 -year -old retired teacher who identified himself only by Tom and said, “No one voted for Musk,” said no one voted to Musk, as long as many Americans didn’t like to vote for Trump.
TOM did not believe that the average MAGA supporters voted for the MUSK and worryed that the reduction of Doge would harm Americans at the state, region and individual levels.
“The integration of power under the billionaire is scary.”
Trump issued an administrative order in the office on the first day.
Since then, Doge has fired almost 10,000 federal workers who handled everything, from federal land management to caring for military veterans. Another 75,000 workers accepted the Trump administration’s purchase proposal, and federal workers were given eight months of wages and benefits to federal workers when they resigned in early February. DOGE also cut 104 government contracts related to diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility programs and dismantled US international development institutions.
Trump also gave the MUSK’s Doge team access to the Treasury’s digital payment system. Despite the questions about security permits, cyber security practices, and the legitimacy of musk activities, we have controlled the dollar for Americans, from social security benefits to tax refunds. .
Trump and musk supporters applaud the paper’s efforts to root out corruption, inefficiency and red tape. Opponents oppose the way of the goal of the Doge, and warn that the team’s actions will lead to more corruption and national security risks.
The wave of legal issues is in line with legal issues that claim that transparency and violation of data privacy protection are insufficient.
New York’s protesters marched in Union Square and marched to Washington Square Park and gathered under the symbolic architecture that committed to George Washington, the first president of the United States. “Hey, hey, Ho, Ho, and Elon Musk had to go.
The New York Police Bureau estimates that the number of attendees is more than 10,000.
Victoria, who confirmed himself as a 37 -year -old teacher, sent a sign of “stop the coup” by Arizona’s lawyer Kris Mayes on Monday. The United States, we appeal to the ruling we do not agree. We do not ignore court orders or threaten impeachment to judges. This is an ordinary and simple coup. ”
Victoria said, “This is not what we agree with the Republican policy. “Trump handed over to Elon Musk who did not contract his wallet.”
As people played music and shouted, the signs made at home went up over their heads. The 39 -year -old small business owner identified himself as if Corwin confirmed him about MUSK. “He is so conflicting and clear that his surrogate attitude benefits him personally, personally and for him. Financial. ”
Musk. Earlier this month, Musk said he wanted to remove the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau. The Consumer Finance Protection Bureau said that X has regulated the planned expansion of X as financial services and drilled a hole with a tombstone emoticon for the social network X “CFBP RIP.” He stated that he would follow the Federal Aviation Administration, previously collided agencies, and institutions that regulated SpaceX. He also called for the end of the rules that automakers should report collisions when autonomous driving technology participated.
Musk’s behavior at the federal level influenced Tesla’s brand image. During the four -quarter income of automakers, Thomas Monteiro, an analyst at Investing.com, said that over -advertising around Tesla is showing a decline due to “serious brand rating”.
The story has grown up by those who sell Tesla in the desire not to support Musk’s business anymore. Some cyber truck owners have reported examples of damage and harassment. After the inauguration of the president, Musk’s gestures were interpreted by many people by Nazis, and the sales of automakers that had already been experienced due to the increase in competition in the market and the old lineup began to plunge in Europe. Poland’s Sports and Tourism Minister Slawomir Nitras lobbied for Tesla Boycott, and in Germany, several companies have cut their relationships with Tesla by response to MUSK’s support for Trump and Germany’s top party alternatives.
