Don’t think that would’ve gone over very well. For some reason, the right wing doesn’t think making your living with a job in the federal government isn’t legit. Assholes.

especially good white MEN were going to be losing their jobs. That’s when they started doing double takes.

The Feudalist Society and the Disheritor Foundation wouldn’t have it any other way.

this is nonsense. Next.

I've been saying this for months that Musk isn't doing anything that wasn't already a longstanding priority for conservatives in general and project 2025 in particular.

He's no victim though. These were Musk's priorities too, even if he was manipulated into believing he came up with them.

Musk might've gotten played but he's no victim

... it's not like he is going to starve for the rest of his life for "burning bridges".

against litigation (if those bureaus haven't been hamstrung enough to stop them bringing cases against any company at all), data to use for his AI projects, probably data on his competitors he can use commercially. Whether he'd use the access and data he's got for hacking, blackmailing or selling, as well, who knows?

With a warped reality of himself and the world.

He is also a fraudster every bit that Trump is. He isn't so much a fall guy as an asshole.

even more so, than Trump, with Putin.......

Watch. Anyone who thinks this backfired for them havent been watching the last TEN YEARS

Because he'll never admit he got played. And because he took so much joy in ruining the lives and financial wwellbeing of so many government workers.

So tired of this equivocation. It was pretty obvious from the beginning what was going to happen, to anyone who was paying attention.

but as soon as he leaves or is out of the spotlight (which is already happening) people will forget about him and focus the blame where it belongs -- on the mad king. The catastrophe that is now just beginning won't really kick in until about 6 months from now, and it will be so bad, that with Musk long gone, people won't even remember what he did. Hell, they would even start buying Teslas again, except they won't be able to afford them.

Unilaterally withholding funds appropriated by Congress, unilaterally slashing budgets established by Congress, unilateral, indiscriminate mass firings that render an agency incapable of fulfilling its Congressional mandate, are all crimes.

They are violating constitutional separation of powers principles, the Take Care Clause, and various administrate laws in plain sight.

Every time we reference a cut, recission of funds, or mass firing without noting it was done in violation of the Constitution and multiple laws, we are on their turf. Every time we fail to insert the modifier "illegal" or "unconstitutional" when discussing this or that action, the implicit message is that the 47 regime is doing things that are within its power to do and we are just upset about it -- politics as usual.

We must repeat over, and over, and over, and over. Make it a habit. Repeat until you are sick to death of hearing yourself say it.

And encourage electeds who believe in the rule of law to do the same.

If we don't learn to be repetitious on the fundamental facts, we are not climbing out of this

Say hello to your new president, the couch fucker. Nothing will really change, it will just be behind the scenes, same effect in the end. My guess is all of the nonsense since November was just to soften up the country so we'd be grateful for what seems to be a return to normalcy. It won't be. They're going to get what they want, and America will never return to what it was before 11/5/24.

And I've said, we will see signs by the end of April. Still got a little more than a week left! Next surprise? The Supreme Court is going to turn on Trump. Got to have that, or we're going to get more of the madness.
