Instead of going after billionaires & big corporations to lower costs, Trump is imposing tariffs on our neighboring allies while going soft on China—driving up prices on gas, groceries, and housing, killing jobs, and straining supply chains. American workers will pay the price. - ThreadSky

I'm one of your constituents. Are you going to go to the Federal agencies in person and demand that Elon Musk's DOGE be DENIED access to sensitive systems and personnel?

He saw how effective economic distruption was during pandemic to divert market forces away from small biz into large corps by supplychain disruption shriveling up middle class economic power,concentrating capital into monopolies who extract increased profit from people left w/no other market choice

This isnt a "by design" schema it is a result of his intents & purposes. He will continue to distmantle systemic stability & break down domestic order & dislocate what few corrective mechanism were in place, because that is the outcome consequence when the head of state is curating a shift in power

The most important segment of the public justice system is enforceable law in a pipeline of accountability measures that ensure corruption cant get into the system without passing through them.

That sort of corrective mechanism is all together missing entirely from America's government

What we're experiencing is attack on the sanctity of institutions by the constitute head of the gov&his cohort of loyalists. Its an inevitable consequence of lack in corrective mechanism, anti corruption mechanism&enforcement programs that exist beyond representational governments purview&arms reach

This was entirely avoidable,but the idea of taking preventative measures to account for it was completely ignored&any attempt to raise voices of concern was silenced by people in government who didnt want to admit its no longer viable to take power away from the people,the people must hold the power

What we need now an official 4th branch of government; Civics, where the people have the collective power to stop predators from hijacking positions of power to accomplish self serving ends without public consent or oversight or paths of recourse for the people who are stakeholders made into victims
