Make the numbers massive & the silence deafening. No speeches, platitudes, rants or emotional outcries. Just a massive, somber silent gathering of Americans.

I missed the part where you outlined what ACTIONS you are taking to fight for our democracy. If you need ideas, you can examine all the evasive maneuvers the repubs have taken to delay or stop Dem policies. Then get even crazier, bc the rule of law has been thrown out the door. We need MORE ACTION.

You’re watching Dems voting with repubs on nominations,and believing they have a plan? You’re watching dems watching every institution being invaded and threatened with destruction, and believe they have a plan? You watched musk buy an election, most likely cheat, and believe the Dems have a plan?

They had a chance to preclude that. They could've derailed Musk's fast-tracking to TS clearance. They could've obstructed and Tubervilled until doomsday. Could've held up appointments. They could launch a formal investigation against Elon and the DC US Attorney shielding him.

reply

WH is saying he does. He did have some lower-level clearance at SpaceX when they started contracting, but they never pushed for more — because...well, it's Elon. He'd fail an SSBI. That was a whole thing back in Dec. with SpaceX. 1/

reply

solisandlune.bsky.social•19 days ago

Trump fast-tracked him Jan 20, along with a range of other staff, and they issued an interim TS clearance, supposedly with an SSBI pending. The Dems have complained about it, Trump's ignoring all the actual requirements, etc, etc. About what you'd expect. 2/

reply

solisandlune.bsky.social•19 days ago

I got corrected earlier today on that one myself. But he wasn't vetted, just basically given the interim clearance and told "have fun." Which is...probably why they've attempted to keep that one fairly quiet. It was done under an EO to *purportedly* get rid of the clearance backlog. 3/
