  • Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle arefeeling the wrath of constituents as their phone lines light up with complaints, worries and confusion over Elon Musk's efforts to gut government programs and fire longtime civil servants.

The article from MSN discusses the political and public backlash against lawmakers following Elon Musk's controversial management of X Corp (formerly Twitter). Since acquiring the platform, Musk has made significant changes, including mass layoffs, policy shifts, and rebranding, which have led to operational chaos and a perceived increase in misinformation and hate speech. This has resulted in voter frustration, particularly among Democrats, who are upset with their representatives for not addressing the issues on the platform more aggressively. Lawmakers are facing criticism for their perceived inaction or inadequate response to Musk's handling of X Corp, with some constituents expressing anger over the platform's role in spreading disinformation and its impact on political discourse. The situation has put pressure on politicians to take a stand against Musk, with some calling for regulatory action or even investigations into X Corp's practices.
