Despite Elon not having been appointed for anything nor have any congress endorsement, DODGE is acting as some short of paramilitary force forcefully taking over the systems of several administrations - including the FBI - and illegally gathering personal information from thousands of government employees.

Since the people who would normally prosecute this are basically the FBI and other agencies that are being raided, there is no real option for asking for justice or prosecuting.

I am sure some in the US are absolutely OK with this, but for some it may be starting to look like a dictatorship in the building. All the institutions under threat, the justice system no longer independent from the executive and a congress that is unable to control the wildest illegal actions of the executive.

Be careful of what you wish for, you may get it.

He broke the Constitutional Order, but i guess this is what republicans voted for.

He is threatening to sue everyone who publishes names of his young Doge henchmen, because that is "committing crime", but at the same time he publishes a list of government employees he wants to kick out. How is that not a same thing?

I am seriously hoping there would be consequences, but obviously not because oligarchy leadership is what they want, and this is just one example about that in practice. I thought they hated elite, but unsurprisingly that was another projection.

And like always, every day, even crazier statements from trump overshadow and muddy the waters, so illegalities don't get to be even discussed, Trump planning to do some ethnic cleansing on Gaza understandably is news, like it should be.

Week and a half into Trump's Presidency, and you're scared already. Lol.

Cool
