A group of DC union Democrats released a song protesting the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and Elon Musk. The song is a parody of the 1938 American socialist anthem "Which Side Are You On?"

The event, funded by government public broadcasting systems through the European Broadcasting Union, featured 37 participating countries including non-European members like Israel and Australia.
