Summary

Elon Musk claimed on X that he eliminated the IRS team responsible for the “Direct File” program, which allows Americans to file taxes online for free.

His statement was in response to a right-wing MAGA influencer who called the “direct file” tax program a “far-left government-wide computer office” built by Elizabeth Warren.

Thus far, the website remains active.

    A general strike is not a wage negotiation tactic, its asking everyone everywhere to strike. Theres no general union to present our demands. There is no company policy it opposes.
