Nearly 300 demonstrators gathered at a Tesla showroom in Mount Kisco Saturday to protest the job and program cuts being done by the newly established Department of Government Efficiency, also known as DOGE.

"Every part of it is important to me. We are losing our democracy in this country. Nobody, as far as I know, voted for Elon Musk. He is an unelected part of the government who is apparently pulling the strings on Donald Trump. We don't want to be ruled by millionaires, billionaires, oligarchs. We need a democracy," said protestor Julie Ruben.

While demonstrators chanted anti-Trump and anti-Musk phrases, passing motorists loudly honked their horns in support.

"People are just fed up. They're fed up that Elon Musk is doing what he's doing. It's a quiet coup...The activist groups are banded together and look what you can do," said Dan Stoller, an organizer of the protest.

Protestors also called for a boycott of Tesla.

DOGE has recently announced that it has achieved $55 billion in federal savings since President Donald Trump's inauguration.
