“No one voted for Elon Musk”: Protesters block SpaceX HQ as Elon Musk faces backlash over federal layoffs

Protesters gathered outside SpaceX’s Washington, D.C. office to oppose federal job cuts resulting from the Trump administration’s budget reductions. Criticism has been directed at Elon Musk’s influence and the creation of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which led to significant layoffs, particularly affecting the National Park Service. Union leaders plan ongoing demonstrations against these workforce reductions.
