On Saturday, there was a ‘Tesla Takedown’ protest all over the United States including in front of the Waterville charging station.

Over 60 people showed up despite the snowfall and the cooler temps to protest the DOGE cuts by the company’s CEO Elon Musk and the Trump Administration.

Many showed up to the Main Street location with signs ranging from “Deport Musk” to “Cut Waste, Cut Fraud, Cut Musk”.

Since Musk created DOGE and cuts were announced, there’ve been reports throughout the country of Tesla vehicles being vandalized or drivers being harassed.
