And you call yourself a “constitutional conservative”, you side with tyrants, you might want to inform the self-proclaimed King Trump that “For as in absolute governments the King is law, so in free countries the law ought to be king; and there ought to be no other.”
No, but since 1. You have obviously never read the constitution and 2. The Judiciary is a co-equal branch of government let me explain; Article I, Section 8, Clause 1 gives congress power of the purse, so congress could conceivably cut funding for an ongoing war against the wishes of the executive.
Now comes the gig economy, which has people living like basic slaves [I'm not comparing slavery]. They work but make no money indebted to the company, unable to get out of the endless cycle of poverty.
We used to have symbiotic and territorial structural racism’s in that you were attatched to someone or someplace. Now they just politically decide to put you in debt as a way to enslave you and use global neoliberalism and oligarchy as feature not a bug, to prevent you from building local autonomy.
With the minipulation of big business free trade was born, move all manufacturing overseas and convince the public they can have the paperless society but the people were too stupid so that went overseas.
Remember, the 70s people had work, good pay, unions and big business hated it. Then came president dementia RR looked good, liked by everyone could read a script. Big business got in Nancy's ear offered money and she grabbed it.
3. Then they took over the housing market, and they addicted you and your kids to social media, also owned by republican businesses, they control every voting area from city, county, state and federal they control it all.
5. This is the end of my rant because that's it you can do nothing except vote in the next election and even that might not work because who is going to stop them? DOJ, FBI, Supreme Court I think not your fucked.
2. And this was the start of the republican nightmare, sence then their have been school shootings, homelessness, jobs dissapering, and it wasn't Canada or Mexico they sent your jobs to China.
And it’s only going to get worse for them 😃 instead of them messing about with changing names of places, and complaining about things, the last administration did, and wasting the last 2 months… but they won’t, because they are idiots!
The only way Musk can get around this ruling is if he can prove in a court of law that he has proof of why he fired them, he can't prove it because he's a conman.
Reinstate all. Fire and lock up all the republicans. They are all corrupt, all selling out to russia, all grifters, all liars, all sexual predators, all drug addicts and drunks
Good. Next we need to get them to stop rolling back operating procedures by over a decade. Scrambling to find office space to rent because they think working in cubicles is somehow better than a home office. These people are moving in the wrong direction and they are pulling everyone down with them
The battle for democracy won’t be won in press conferences—it will be won in streets, in libraries, in schools, in voting booths. Because history teaches us that when democracy is in danger, it isn’t rescued by those in power. It is clawed back by those who refuse to surrender to the twilight!
In 1955, top fed. income tax rate in the U.S. was 91% for individuals with taxable income over certain threshold. This high rate applied to highest income bracket at the time, during post-World War II era. Also, the rich utilized various deductions & tax strategies to lower their tax burden.
A friend and her daughter from the United States just came to visit us here in Strasbourg France because she was a probationary VA employee and got fired so they said fuck it, Let’s see Europe. So maybe Trump and that prick musk gave her a much-needed vacation?
I worry, though... will this do anything?! Trump was given a "get out of jail free" card by SCOTUS before he took office. Won't all of his and Musks actions fall under that precedence?
NY Times anti-Trump because FSB did not plan stop of information with UKR to kill the F-35 export program. 2 T future export earnings in F-35 alone. Modern weapon systems are information products. No information makes F-35 suboptimal/inoperable. Corporate America realizing now. Will overthrow Trump.
Alito thinks that a single judge shouldn't have so much power; we the people must 'do something' to show that Alito should LOOK IN THE MIRROR. His 'supreme court' has given our current grifter free reign. Hey Hey HO HO DONALD TRUMP HAS GOT TO GO. And please get his buddy Elon out of our house, too.
if you want to know where the real government waste is happening it's tying up our judicial system and paying legal fees for all for all of this stupid shit
Had een voorbeeld kunnen nemen aan Macron die Trump wel corrigeerde over zijn leugen dat Amerika meer betaald aan Oekraine dan Europa en dat Europa het geld terugkrijgt. Rutte laat hem er gewoon mee wegkomen, wat een wanvertoning.
Awesome, if they want to fire people go ahead, but do it because they are not doing their jobs not because someone is coming in with a saw to destroy, dismantle & damage our institutions & economy.
The DOJ lawyers have state-regulated law licenses. These DOJ lawyers can be jailed, suspended from the practice of law, or even disbarred for violating court orders (here, on behalf of federal government). Active licensed lawyer’s biggest professional fear is disbarment (Eastman; Giuliani)
What's going on, you mean you're actually reporting the news today and not blaming something on Joe Biden's age or the Democrats? Bezos must be napping.
It looks like they're referring to the brief period after hurricane Milton in October of 2024. The matter was resolved in a few days but people went nuts buying so much gas so there were higher prices and people made a fuss. This is just clickbait by folks in YouTube.
Every bit of news announcing firings, and the shutting down of programs and departments need to have posts by maga politicians who support musk/trump/doge attached, so no one will forget these folks when election time arrives. We need to have their shameless gutting of this country front and center.
We need to use their posts against them. I think making them own their words and actions would be most effective. In this case, we have TN senator Marsha Blackburn gladly sucking up to musk. #marshablackburn
Biden's good numbers,
after fixing Trump's mess:
4.1% unemployment
-nobody feels it?
$3.12 gas
-nobody feels it?
Strong NATO
-nobody feels it?
2.9% inflation
-nobody feels it?
43,488 DOW
-nobody feels it?
Trump gets back in &
wrecks it all AGAIN.
Bet everyone feels it now.
He should be in jail for this. The point of all of this is to see just how much they can get away with. When the courts stop them, they will move on to something else. They're already trying to sell government buildings. Nothing is safe or normal with this assholes. Heritage Foundation Project 2025.
We need to track the costs of lost productivity and associiated expenses. DOGE is not finding waster but is creating it. Elong should have to pay it all back.
Yeah those headlines right themselves.. 20 years from now: ‘investigators have proven widespread corruption and embezzlement in former president Trump’ second term’
I think fundamentally American democracy is stronger than the orange idiot… so yeah I don’t think even MAGA supporters will accept another term (indefinite) term
I’m sorry to be impolite but that is a fucking idiotic take. I don’t know a single Canadian who wouldn’t die protecting their democracy and not a single American who would.
March 13 2035. We did it together and what's funny is it want just us but other countries too all at once. That probably even made them BIGLY set off the alarms ⏰ 🚨. I we at least an Austrian Indian Canadians and Europeans.
Would you go back to work only to be ambushed and abused by nutjobs every day?
Where is the justice?
When will the Musk Rat be arrested, charged, and deported?
Wow! The Courts are Standing up for the rule of Law! What a Great Day! Trump and Musk needs to be Arrested for the sham they are trying to pull on the American people. The GOP IS COMPLICIT AS WELL.
Remove all the unfit and unqualified people trump brought into the executive branch with him. Just removing trump and letting the fascists continue with Vance would be a disaster!
This is all fine and good but if these people go back, what kind of environment will it be for them? Who will pay the price for the lost productivity of putting every employee in a position of terror? Who will reimburse the taxpayers for creating that waste?
Yes! And it is a shame and a disgrace. Shame on the US administration. All corrupt criminals including the tech oligarchs who funded them all. Shame Shame Shame. Greed corrupts and rots the soul!
Yes 👏 👏
People need to sue because I can imagine the emotional damage this caused. Elon , Trump and this republican regime does not care about this country. Just look at how republicans are treating their own constituents.
Shameful
We have to resist this administration like never before. If we don’t protest and fight back against this tyranny, they’ll do their best to take away our rights and renders us useless and unnecessary. #Resist 💙💙🇺🇸💙💙
Please tell us how much taxpayer money is being spent on DOGE. I seriously doubt it is being offset at all and the only beneficiaries are Elon and his companies.
Workers by the thousands were fired.
Turns out, there’s a process required.
Elon can’t fire based on personal desire.
A “sham” process. Everyone is rehired.

But, we'll see how the SC sees it.
Pretending the President is a king is.
Carry a big stick.
Anyone working still there is a craven collaborator.
On top of that:
🇨🇦👏
Why @democrats and #ChuckSchumer ever cast a vote to help them further their agenda?
Republicans would be SCREAMING 25th amendment
He controls this Congress. He will not be impeached and even if he were impeached, he would never be convicted.
We have never had any president convicted and removed from office.
"His Supreme Court?"
Will he pay any attention to what the judge says, especially since he already announced only himself and his bought-and-paid-for "AG" are now allowed to interpret the law for the executive branch?

He could have told Trump that any attempts at taking Greenland would mean article 5 being invoked.
The US against everyone else in NATO.

"(Chief Justice) John Marshall has made his decision; now let him enforce it."
Americans are hostages of him.

PROTECT THOSE EMPLOYED IN THE US GOVERNMENT.
AT LEAST THEY "KEEP THE BOOKS"
The Justice system is the last defense against the authoritarian dictator Trump and the olygaphy led by the Muskrat.
Join the resistance and don't obey in advance, Stand up for your rights.
What midterms?
Not capes.
The forces united ✊.
Before 2025.
#Resist!
#3.5%rule!

FUCK TRUMP for misusing his formal authority and embarrassing himself & other nation leaders.
May the road hit ya freaking face ‘till ya turn pretty. Scourge of the planet.

The 'get out jail free' ruling they provided Trump is their approval of tyranny.
