An Open Letter
To: Gov. Scott
From: A constituent in Burlington, VT
February 5
We have just had the biggest data breech and breaking of constitutional order in history. Elon Musk is not elected nor is DOGE a government agency, it was never created by Congress, it has zero legal authority. Only congress can legislate how the US purse strings get spent- or not spent. Now Elon Musk and his people have all our info- and all explanations about are extremely and deliberately vague. This is a coup. I do not want the US government to be in the hands of a single man who’s tweeting that he is cutting programs and policies that the US government, the Congress established! We’re in a constitutional crisis. Trump has turned the government over to billionaire Elon Musk- literally the man’s computers are running the US government’s treasury payment system- that means any payments that have anything to do with the federal government are in the hands of Elon Musk. Elon Musk and his people has control of all of MY financial information, unless they’re stopped they can do whatever they want with it. None of the coup raiders have security clearance. Musk's hostile takeover is putting Americans in danger and derailing our democracy. It is much easier to destroy a democracy than it is to build one. This is a constitutional crisis and thus a nonpartisan issue. If the republicans want DOGE they can craft such an agency through the legislative process. If they want to dismantle the payments of these agencies they can do so using the legal powers of their office. A private citizen who spent 100’s of millions on dollars purchasing a president, who has major conflicts of interest and thus lacks security clearance is illegal. It’s time for you to stand up and defend the We The People living in our little state from the tyranny of a dictator wannabe and the inactions of boot licking legislators who have abandoned their oaths to protect our constitution. Time is of the essence or we won’t have a democracy to protect. I hope every governor in this great country acts now, our democracy depends on it! Please do what you need do to protect us. Make some big noise about a quiet coup. And let us know what actions you take as governor of our great state!
