Congressional #Republicans **could** do something to stop Musk because they have control over the #LegislativeBranch of the govt, which is supposed to act as a check and balance on the #ExecutiveBranch. But they choose not to.
So the rest of us need to protest and call and post and make enough noise to persuade the #GOP that they really do need to stop Musk's takeover of the US government.

I tried #Parliaments, #legislatures, #legislativebranch....no go either.
*grits teeth* ok so I'm a legal academic at Durham. My research is broadly #sociolegal and #qualitative, and my area is #publiclaw / #constitutionallaw. I focus much more on the non-judicial branches of the state, the #executivebranch and #legislativebranch / #legislatures/ #Parliaments. I'm *particularly* interested in the role of #officials / #civilservice/ #bureaucracy, and the maintenance of ideals in the grubbiness of organisation. I think I've used up my hashtags quota for the year....
