It's pretty clear that everything Elon claimed about his improvements was a complete and total lie, and that his real goal was the seize the technological workings of the government, which simplifies implementing their agenda.

We will be lucky if we, as a nation, survive the Trump administration without turning into a fascist, authoritarian state, with little to no scientific credibility, and a pariah state like North Korea.

I have noticed that a number of conservative organizations are starting to be affected by this and speaking up, although Congress and the Judiciary are clearly either afraid, or supportive of these actions. From what I can tell, the only remaining response is truly large scale, well-organized peaceful protest, which is risky because a small number of bad actors could mess up a peaceful protest and give Trump all the excuses he wants to bring out the US military for a violent response to innocent protestors.



Maybe it's time for the left to embrace the full text of the 2nd Amendment ;)


There are protests all over the US! Check out https://www.fiftyfifty.one/ I'm deeply impressed by the turnout in every state. Next day of action is March 4th.


Ironically, I don't think Musk or Trump grasp how much of the military logistics and fundamental readiness rely on DoD civilians. The same ones they want to reduce by 8% over the next few months.
