I called for an independent investigation into Donald Trump's dismantling of the Department of Education, and now, it's happening.
This investigation will reveal what's at stake for families.
While Trump and Musk side with billionaires, I'll side with our kids.

Billionaires like Jeff Bezos shouldn’t pay a lower tax rate than a Boston public school teacher.
The wealthiest and most powerful people in this country should be paying their fair share — not getting tax breaks from Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress.

This investigation is an attempt to dismantle Biden-era climate initiatives under the pretense of financial oversight. By using law enforcement to target climate funding, the Trump administration is leveraging the legal system for political gain.
leaving them unable to continue their work on clean energy initiatives. Additionally, government employees involved in the program may face legal uncertainty as the administration pushes for stricter oversight, creating a climate of fear and instability.
How Does This Affect Employees?
EPA employees are now under intense pressure as the FBI investigates their involvement in the grant program. Many workers at nonprofits that rely on these funds could lose their jobs due to the account freezes,
Meanwhile, a judge denied a request to seize the funds, but Citibank has frozen billions in grant money, preventing nonprofits from paying employees or continuing their projects.
The political nature of the investigation became even more evident when a senior federal prosecutor resigned, citing concerns that the probe was politically motivated and lacked proper evidence.
The administration is threatening legal action against these employees, treating them as if they have committed crimes, with their work and records being scrutinized.

EPA Admin Lee Zeldin, appointed by Trump, is attempting to reclaim these funds, arguing that they were allocated with insufficient oversight. As part of this effort, the FBI has questioned EPA employees about the grants, escalating the situation into a criminal investigation.
Now, EPA employees are being interrogated like criminals simply for doing their jobs.
The Trump administration has launched an FBI investigation into a $20 billion grant program for clean energy projects established under the Biden administration. These funds, managed by the EPA, were intended to support climate initiatives, particularly in low-income communities.

By adopting this name, the Trump administration’s modern-day “Operation Whirlwind” appears to signal a similar intent: to assert control, suppress dissent, and eliminate opposition at any cost.

We asked Senate Republicans: is there any millionaire or billionaire rich enough who doesn't need another tax giveaway?
$10M a year? No.
$100M a year? No.
$500M a year? No.

What the actual fuck?! America, it’s time to rise. When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty!
We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.
