Okay. Now who is going to enforce it? Pam Bondi? Kash Patel? How do we do that?

#NorthCarolina Republicans drafted a bill to prevent our AG from suing Trump.

NC Republicans are horrible, they block certification of the Democratic winner of a state SC seat and now this. These are some of the worst Trump quislings.

My thought has been that the states are our only hope.

Will the US MARSHALS SERVICE enforce the federal court order if asked by the judge?

doug5301.bsky.social•23 days ago

Unclear right now and it will not be immediate but Federal judges are quite powerful when they are pissed. The important think is that there are ways to enforce these orders with force. US Marshals have guns.

…a federal judge issued an emergency order doing just that based on a lawsuit filed by AGs of 19 states. https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2025/02/07/trump-musk-government-efficiency-attorneys-general-lawsuit/

So is there a way citizens can file a class action law suit to keep musk and little muskies out of our data?

lstephens02.bsky.social•23 days ago

That was my question when this all started. As a general question; isn’t this a violation of the Privacy Act of 1974? The musk minions need my permission to view my private information. I will never give it.

minpinmom.bsky.social•23 days ago

Yea, I’m confused, our data should have protection, I mean they banned TikTok supposedly because they didn’t want china to have our data. But they’re giving it to people who are unelected and don’t even have clearance
