This is a coup!

We live in an oligarchy, not a democracy.

icantwithhim.bsky.social•123 days ago

Exactly he’s not appointed. He’s not elected. He doesn’t have any sort of clearance or any sort of authority and he’s walking in the door and he’s treating the United States government the way he treated Twitter when he bought it, which was an epic fail.

Paywall. Not cool

dramamama3453.bsky.social•123 days ago

Whelp, Trump said the quiet part out loud, “He knows those computers better than anybody. All those computers. Those vote-counting computers & we ended up winning PA like in a landslide.” Musk was in PA for a good 3 weeks mucking around & now he’s doing the same in real time in the US Treasury Dept

This is all so unconstitutional. Isn’t anyone filing a lawsuit before the Supreme Court? They need to issue an emergency stay or something!

machadoseaside.bsky.social•122 days ago

Bernie Sanders said people have to stop complaining and do something, he gave the number to call (see his twitter). Concerned Republicans, you have a narrow margin in the house, you only have to change a few minds and bad legislation doesn't pass.

totallyrandomgma.bsky.social•121 days ago

Yet, here we are. And the red hats suddenly decided that they DO want to drink Elon’s kool-aid. Even if it is yellow.

doybar.bsky.social•123 days ago

It's all freighting!

nank56.bsky.social•121 days ago

We need to flood social media with head spinning propaganda. That’s what he’s doing, after all. Make it all seem like it’s from him. Help, Barbra!!

billiousman.bsky.social•122 days ago

Could the US civil service go on strike to have him removed?

orionscelt.bsky.social•123 days ago

This requires security clearances. I highly doubt Musk has these clearances. Should be illegal.

Dave Lebryk. American hero. Thank you for your service, Dave. Proud to say you were my boss.

He stood firm to his oath. He is protecting our constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic. Good on him. ❤️

Actually, I believe he is controlling issues that he has no business to be involved in. This is a oligarchy and every billionaire that supports Trump has a part to play in his government.

larryallen.bsky.social•123 days ago

Donald and Elon will fall out. Life taught Donald to solve problems by talking nonsense, a disastrous approach in Elon’s aerospace industry. Rather than accept Donald as an equal, more likely Elon fantasizes about squeezing Donald’s head off and stuffing it up Donald’s ass. Neither value empathy.

This has to be illegal.

crazyfingerz.bsky.social•123 days ago

I’m a fed and he’s threatening me and my family. And thousands of middle class American families. Somebody needs to stand up for regular Americans.

orionscelt.bsky.social•123 days ago

Feels like the public has never hated us more. Musk is mostly responsible for this. We’ve already had a hard enough time keeping wildland firefighters. It’s getting far worse.

orionscelt.bsky.social•123 days ago

Yes, the emails threatening everyone are absolutely horrible. I’m a wildland fire manager and we got them. Morale is sinking at my department. It’s heartbreaking to see hard working firefighters, EMS, and dispatchers feel like worthless unwanted employees.

crazyfingerz.bsky.social•123 days ago

I hear you. You are a vital part of the workforce and we need you. Good luck to you. Your job is more important than mine and I hope you get to keep it. ❤️

orionscelt.bsky.social•123 days ago

I hope you get to keep yours as well. You are valued!! Don’t ever forget that.

crazyfingerz.bsky.social•123 days ago

Thanks. I work in resource protection as well.

orionscelt.bsky.social•123 days ago

Oh awesome. That’s an extremely important job. Let’s hope the current administration doesn’t do what I fear they’ll do and start removing protections. I have a feeling one of their major goals is to exploit and profit off our natural resources. They don’t care about the damages they’ll do. :/

evaheartsgidget.bsky.social•123 days ago

The public wants and needs you. We’re paralyzed at the moment. Nobody knows how to help.

jmwf.bsky.social•121 days ago

The govt payment systems are a million times more complex than X/twitter. I doubt he understands what he’s embarking. I’m all for modernizing the systems or looking for cost savings but those are endeavors that need careful planning , not coming in overzealous and like a bull in a china shop

gaysenior.bsky.social•121 days ago

Sad and dark days for America. 😢😢😢

Many of us need that check that we paid for our whole lives.

Elon should have been Deported years ago!

This is the beginning of the end of democracy and a dictatorship here unless something is done. Now.

JUST MORE LIES & HYPER-PARTISAN HYSTERIA!!

carolynbinx.bsky.social•123 days ago

One would think musk is actually breaking the law

michepre.bsky.social•123 days ago

He was not elected, he just bought the election.

avirgonamedjohn.bsky.social•122 days ago

He's nicknamed "Apartheid Clyde."

It's both enraging & heartbreaking.

Deport Elin Musk & Rupert Murdoch, the only 2 citizens who destroyed America using media & #FOTUS to do so.

It seems we now have a government run by mobsters, brought to us by the R party, 6 fascist members of the infamous John Roberts court, Judge Aileen Cannon, and a bunch of Christian Fundamentalists. (I grew up among the latter.)

keeponpushin.bsky.social•120 days ago

I feel sad for this person he folded, but I bet the pressure was tremendous

Someone needs to shoot musk dead

wahughes.bsky.social•120 days ago

Donald gave him the keys to the kingdom and now we are all going to pay.

asjen.bsky.social•123 days ago

Just curious, is anyone keeping a tally or checking off the items that the DT administration has executed from #Project2025. Only 2 weeks in and feels like they have done lots already. 😢

orionscelt.bsky.social•123 days ago

I have read that in-depth. It worries me sick with regard to their agenda to remove so many environmental regulations by replacing feds with private. They will absolutely exploit our resources dry and destroy everything in their path if we let them.

Yep. And he’s finding all the corruption from the previous administration. Why are you so afraid of this??? Hmmm

Ms. Streisand,
We as the people and of various grassroots organizations we must all come together and to take back and save our democracy!

Muskrat is working within the government and he is also a government contractor. That’s illegal but America is not a country of laws, it’s a toilet full of rich people who need to be flushed.

pangilinan.bsky.social•123 days ago

And the Dems in office are doing nothing about it. It is tiring and defeating.

orionscelt.bsky.social•123 days ago

The silence is deafening.

edielaura123.bsky.social•123 days ago

In 2026, please let us get a majority in both Houses, impeach T. once again and throw him out of office!
