The simple fact that he walked out alive is proof positive that our security agencies are compromised. He is exactly what they are supposed to be protecting us against.
I’m still beyond flabbergasted that a private citizen can just rummage around in American institutions, getting rid of anything he doesn’t like.
It’s because the President is letting him do it. In many cases, he is exceeding what the President has the lawful authority to let him do, but Congress is also letting him do it.
It’s bad enough that Congress is ceding its power to the Presidency, but even worse that they are both enabling this asshat.
It’s because the President is letting him do it.
No, it’s because the President, both houses of Congress, and the Supreme Court are allowing him to do it. It really takes all four to allow this to happen. If any of them were doing the job their supposed to be doing, this wouldn’t be possible.
What we’ve found out is that it only takes two to collude. The court takes too long to deliberate, and by the time they reach a decision, the damage is done. AND they depend on the executive for enforcement.
The courts have said a bunch of stuff he’s done is illegal and must be reversed. He’s either ignored them or done the ketamine shuffle (modified his actions to accomplish the same thing without technically breaking the letter of the law).
And even if Congress were to impeach Trump, and let’s say that they somehow threw in Vance and the entire administration along with him (not remotely feasible or legal btw), then the democratic will of the people would simply elect him in again, after first electing new Senators and Representatives to make that legal.
This is democracy in action: people elect their representatives, who then act as they best see fit to do, subject only to those existing checks and balances.
I’m stunned at the right wing justifications for it.
The answer, always: Worthington’s Law.
He makes more money than you do.
This kind of thinking is a plague in this country.
He has a lot of money, and everything’s for sale in the USA.
Money is our true religion.
That would be too obvious. Hopefully, in a week or two, he’ll be in one of his SwastiKKKars, and it will veer off a high overpass and crash in a fiery explosion into the traffic below.
Does he actually drive those things?
The bulk of the NSA’s operations squarely target American citizen, violate their rights and are unconstitional. This is nothing new.
Also, if Reichsführer Musk’s visit was so secret, how come we know about it? I call BS.
Then again, the simple fact that the Wall Street Journal found about this “secret” meeting means that there are some people at our security agencies who understand the threat.
It’s so weird to me that to become president, you need to be born American, but apparently you can do whatever the hell you want if you’re a south African moron with money.
Imagine the things billionaires without a constant need for attention might have done without anyone finding out
Best government money can buy.
I used to live in Maryland, and a guy got shot to death just for trying to drive into the Ft. Meade base. Yet space Karen can just stop on by.

Wow that’s like how to get disappeared 101.
Not if the NSA agrees with what he wants to do.
I wish the NSA would kill Elon
I wish anything, anyone, anywhere would kill elon.
