Democratic California Rep. Maxine Waters had a meltdown Tuesday to express her disapproval of both President Donald Trump and tech mogul Elon Musk.

Democratic lawmakers held a rally protesting Musk’s access to the Treasury Department. Watters, during her speech, accused him of overstepping his boundaries without electoral consent.

“We have got to tell Elon Musk that nobody elected your ass. Nobody told you you could get all of our private information. Nobody told you you could be in charge of the payments of this country,” Waters said.

Waters accused Musk of attempting to monopolize the financial earnings of ordinary Americans to fund his space explorations.

“We have told you that you’ve made enough money off our government yourself, and now you want to take everybody else’s payroll and make sure that they don’t make the kind of money that you’ve made. Oh, you want to use our money to go to Mars,” Waters said. The congresswoman also griped about Trump, saying that he and other billionaires are positioning themselves to dominate the country’s political and economic spheres.

“We’re in a crisis in this country because Trump and Elon Musk and the billionaires have decided they’re going to put us all in our place. They’re going to run this country. They’re going to make sure that they take over everything,” Waters said. “Are we going to let them do that? Are we going to let them run this government in the way that they can make even more money and so they won’t stop? It is so brazen every day they’re taking new actions. They’re taking executive actions. Every day they’re doing something.”

Waters made additional remarks.

“Let me just tell you now, I have Elon Musk’s major office in my district,” Waters said to the crowd.

Members of the Treasury Department said Tuesday that federal spending would proceed without interruption and that they are committed to safeguarding the national payments system. This statement came amid intense scrutiny following the decision to grant Musk’s newly established Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) access to the treasury system. Treasury officials also announced a review that they say is aimed at improving the accuracy of payments to government entities and the public.

“Treasury has no higher obligation than managing the government’s finances on behalf of the American people, and its payments system is critical to that process,” wrote Jonathan Blum, a legislative affairs official at the Treasury Department, as reported by the New York Times.

Democratic legislators said they will obstruct Trump’s legislative agenda. Democratic strategists have launched a new war room at party headquarters.

This  follows Trump’s and Musk’s creation of DOGE, a development that eventually led to major changes at the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). Musk said early Monday in a conversation on X Spaces that he and Trump had agreed to disband USAID.

Following Musk’s announcement, the Trump administration directed USAID staff to transition to remote work, as detailed in an overnight email reported by NBC News. By Monday afternoon, Secretary of State Marco Rubio had assumed the role of acting director of USAID. He said its operations resemble a “global charity.”

Echoing this sentiment, Republican Iowa Sen. Joni Ernst said she supported Musk and Trump’s decision. She said she was dissatisfied with how USAID handles funds. Ernst also said the agency is inefficient as it distributes money to intended recipients.
