Summary
Rep. Seth Magaziner (D-R.I.) called Elon Musk a “coward” if he refuses to testify before Congress about the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and its role in federal spending cuts.
House Republicans blocked a Democratic attempt to subpoena Musk.
Concerns over DOGE’s actions include efforts to dismantle USAID and access Treasury systems, potentially affecting Social Security, Medicare, and tax records.
Magaziner criticized the lack of transparency and congressional oversight, arguing Musk has no authority to unilaterally withhold congressionally appropriated funds.
Good move. Call him names and challenge his masculinity and he’s sure to show up.
Subpoena him, hand cuffed if needed, to testify.
they already tried that, it failed 19-20 to get the votes required to subpoena.
They all just ignore subpoenas anyway, and never see any consequences for it
That’s the big part, they’ve seen there are no consequences, so why bother
This part of the plan is explicitly named “ignore the courts”.
America is dying with a whimper!
Gee don’t hold back or anything. What a milquetoast callout.

Musk is a coward. We knew that.
