RARE PHOTOS: Musk s war on head start is misogyny | Vintage Vibes

Elon Musk's ongoing infiltration-style coup of the federal government continues to cause chaos across the country. As Musk seizes executive powers and rejects all congressional authority, it's increasingly clear that Donald Trump is shaping up to be more of a reality TV host in his return to office than the actual president. 

Last week, Trump pulled back the across-the-board "freeze" on all federal grants and loans, but despite the alleged "unfreezing," reports are streaming in from various states that money for Head Start has disappeared, forcing some centers to close or lay off staff. This is likely the doing of Musk, who has been interfering with the Treasury Department systems that disperse funds, and bragging on X that he has dictator-like powers to unilaterally destroy programs he doesn't like.
