Another Republican lawmaker was on the receiving end of harsh responses while holding a town hall, as GOP elected officials face backlash over policies enacted or proposed by the Trump administration and, particularly, Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
The latest episode involved Rep. Harriet Hageman, from Wyoming, a ruby red state Trump comfortably won in the last election. Attendees were particularly angry at Musk, even chanting "Deport Elon!" as Hageman rejected social security would face cuts. "DOGE is not dismantling social security, and even with reconciliation we're not allowed to touch social security," she said as chants continued.
