Who is going to do something? This is what the country voted for. So far, everything done has been legal. It will take time to make worse things legal, probably, but that is coming, too.
Not everything done so far has been legal and there are multiple ongoing cases suing Trump’s actions. Book bans, healthcare, and anti-trans legislation are the first that come to mind. People and organizations (e.g. ACLU) in positions of power are trying to stand up for the common person where they can. If I had more money I’d donate to them.
No, it’s not all legal. But the courts don’t act at the speed of this executive.
This is a breakdown of our government.
I’m curious as to who’s doing the actual force of these things. I know federal employees at the Treasury aren’t expected to be armed resistance, but who, exactly, is behind forcing the way for Musk’s people? Is it police? Private security? His own goons?
The new head of the agency badged them in, set them up in executive positions, and told his employees to obey them. They don’t even have security clearance or government credentials. One of them is 18 fucking years old. Assuming you’re talking about the fiasco at the Office of Personnel Management.

Fuck legality.
Slavery? Legal.
The Holocaust? Legal.
Legality is what fascists use to keep the population in line, because if it’s legal, what can we do, right?
