If the DOGE crew want to live in the building as they have been in other departments, someone needs to call for inspections.

This is beyond offensive at SO MANY LEVELS.
Hey ICE, DEPORT #ELONMUSKKK!

This is outrageous. Absolute highway robbery. A bunch of thugs has dismantled an institute that has promoted peace for forty years and help themselves to a beautiful building in the process.

Looks like a great place to have a protest

Straight up mafia tactics

Why, oh why, is this not being challenged legally? This "Doge" group can only do this because there is no one to stop them.

May they never know a second of peace.

The US has, or had, an Institute of Peace?! Since 1984?! 😱

Judging by all the wars the US has been in since then, there must've been some horrible wars we've avoided, assuming they've been successful in their mission. 🤷‍♂️

Like Israel just taking what they want.

They don't own the building or the property it sits on.

I think this is called "vulture capitalism." I learned about it in Rick Goldsmith's documentary about how the hedge fund Alden Global Capital destroyed the nation's newspapers DOGE seems to be following the same playbook.

Unbelievable how Musk and his band of marauding rats are getting away with raiding and rummaging through America's institutions, with an attitude of we'll do what we want, take what we want, and you can't stop us. He is out of control. Why is this being allowed to happen?!

It does have a nice view of the Potomac, if I remember correctly.

They are even terrible at being evil. "Let's take that building. It looks cool and has parking!" F$cking DOGE-bags.

So the gov is trying to steal a private building and to incorporate it into state ownership? Do I get this correctly?
WOW, this is craZy...

And US gov is to incorporate Ukraine's national wealth ... or bad things will happen to Ukrainians.

Is this mafiaZation or nationalization?

wintermute115.bsky.social•5 days ago

Willing to bet that if they get their way it won't be owned by the state.

I am afraid so they have all federal buildings for sale!

I’ve read stories about Russian thugs who simply pushed apt. owners out of their homes & moved themselves in during the time after the USSR broke up.

The Doge Boys here are playing the part of the Russian thugs.
