According to Politico, Democrat Reps. Judy Chu (D-CA) and Gwen Moore (D-WI) marched into Speaker Johnson’s office unannounced and demanded answers on Musk’s DOGE team.
Politico reported:
Reps. Judy Chu (D-Calif.) and Gwen Moore (D-Wisc.) barged into House Speaker Mike Johnson’s office unscheduled on Wednesday and challenged him about Elon Musk’s team gaining access to a sensitive payment system at the Treasury Department.
Their intrusion, amid an escalation of Democratic backlash against Musk’s sweep through the federal government, came shortly after Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent arrived at the speaker’s office to discuss how to implement President Donald Trump’s tax agenda.
However, Moore said that Bessent was not in the room when she and Chu confronted Johnson.
“Gwen Moore forced her way in there, and then I got to go in right behind her,” Chu told reporters. “And she was already confronting Speaker Johnson about Treasury Secretary Bessent and the stealing of Americans’ private information, tax information that should never be stolen and given to this billionaire Elon Musk.”

Somehow I think a billionaire is pretty far down on the list of people who are going to get all jiggy over what’s in my kid’s piggy bank.
He should say he felt threatened for his life
Indeed!
Treasury Department? Sound kinda like the Executive branch, to me. Why not barge into the Oval Office?
It’s called an audit, beeches. That’s what’s going on.
What I find fascinating is that they are more upset over USAID than what Hegseth is doing with the military.
Pure theater. Gaining access? Obviously on the authority of the President of the United States as his agent.
The press is running with this as though it is some mystery, illegal, etc. Just more lies to manufacture a scandal.
As is typical, corruption being uncovered is *not* the scandal - the scandal is how the information was found - if it is a Republican doing it. “How did the Republicans get that information?” is the scandal.
