It's also going to take more than just that. Remember no dictator ever goes peacefully and neither does corrupt greedy internationally criminal billionaires. And you have to make sure you get every f****** last penny out of a billionaire leave them with nothing not even their lives
Until they finish dismantling the current constitutional order which is what their main goal is. We are fighting with them under rules they are not adhering to, & now have the power to undo altogether. So lets get our heels dug into the real fight & that is the end of the current constitution.
They own SCOTUS and vance has already said he will ignore court orders, Elon says it is a coup. Private security firms now protect institutions for the dictators and AGAINST the People. Too late. You are now in a period of "consequences."
I might add - continue to call your senators and Reps. The R’s are continuing to put pressure on Trump to get Elon out due to pressure from their constituents. Keep it up!

Court judgements have been "temporarily", so I'm not holding my breath. Republithugs have planned this for at least 10 years. Dems move too slow and haven't caught up, still. Fan of Pete B's but Dems need to get off their thumbs and get all the offensive plays locked in.
Everyone seeing this, PLEASE pledge to commit to sharing 1 thing everyday with someone not paying attention. We need to spread the word.
Yes, reach out to elected officials, but also your family, neighbors, friends! Outside this echo chamber, they're clueless about what's happening! #PledgeOne
Well maybe someone or someones should go 2nd amendment and stop this tyrannical shit that is happening right before your eyes. Isn’t that what it is for?
I would be delighted to see them waste scarce Senate floor time on having futile impeachment proceedings for normie judges and never reach the 67-vote threshold for conviction.
Trump might be stupid enough to demand it, and get annoyed when Thune says no.
But that would need GOP House and Senate to stick their necks out and actively participate, rather than pretending it's not their business and not their fault and they don't know anything about it and don't want to know.
Musk is still a private citizen. How can he call on anything? If there are laws left the one who is going to court is him. Otherwise you have lost democracy and law and order just like that.
The day Trump was elected, it put democracy teetering on the edge of collapse. The day Elon Musk took control of our money and institutions is the day our democracy was toppled.
👏🏻 Pete Buttigieg is on BlueSky! I just saw one of his posts and am following him now 👍🏻👏🏻👍🏻 …maybe I mistyped his name earlier and couldn’t find him. 😆 Regardless, I’m glad he’s on BlueSky! 💙🇺🇸💙
The courts can hand down all the rulings against trump they want ….. he won’t obey and there is absolutely no one that can make him. How can this ever be turned around? Asking for an American that used to be proud of the country that they were born in.
They don't "let" us vote; it's our most fundamental right. And if they prohibit the midterms somehow, then the whole fucking country needs to go on strike, as we FUCKING DEMAND to vote.
Not a chance. Maybe a Senator or Representative. We need to get serious about Presidential candidates. They need to have a broad range of skills and experience.
I get older & see how much time & talent we all invested in this country. Schools, roads, parks, hospitals, military, public safety, transportation, etc. & don't want it wasted by the EGOD.
After a gummy I see him
🎶 Trampling out our investments where his grapes of wrath are stored...🎶😔
The court ruled against him but he absolutely has not surrendered. That’s a seriously wrong statement. They continue the rampage elsewhere even as they prepare to defy the courts they don’t have locked down.
They are George, but none of that is ours anymore. It's been stolen in a fascist robbery that we saw coming but did nothing to stop it. We have a chance to get it back but every day that goes by without going after it hardcore, makes it progressively harder. The clock is running out, then? It's over
Absolutely. He throws this crazy stuff out there and if it sticks, he goes with it. When it doesn't catch hold and there's push back he always caves. If the ratings aren't good, it's gone and replaced with the latest whim.
He's running this like a second tier network program manager.
This is all just posturing until law enforcement officials physically remove, with deadly force if there is non-compliance with surrender orders, and detain them with zero access to their phone or the internet. Everything else at this point is performative nonsense.
Exactly. That's why I say all these court orders, lawsuits, and house bills are performative nonsense. We are being placated to prevent major public panic over just how far this has gone in such a short time and the Dems have no answer.
"As a student of 1930 and 40 German history and watching this coup unfold I'm wondering....how long will it be before it is too personally dangerous to post liberal content on the Internet. Fascist history clearly shows there is a point."
How about something called the fucking CONSTITUTION. How about something called law and order. How about something called checks and balances?!! Your friend from PUYALLUP WASHINGTON home of interment camps of Japanese people. Concentration camps in my hometown.
We are running out of, or may already be out of, TIME. The lawsuits filed that have frozen a lot of the agenda are good, but we have no way of knowing just how much damage Nazi Musk and his computer rats have already done. Were the rats at work on election night?
I could not agree more. And I just don't see it happening in time. Doesn't mean we won't be victorious in the end - I just don't see a quick resolution. too many people have NO CLUE what is happening because they don't pay attention and the media is complicit with the trump/gop regime.
I agree. The average U.S. citizen is not very bright going by their election choices. It will take a lot of pain and suffering to change their minds. Under Trump, that is exactly what will happen.
The average American is said to read on a 6th grade level. And critical thinking skills are missing in too many. The trump regime is at the stage of ignoring courts rulings... will it come down to the military stopping them? 😬😔
To me Secretary Pete has ALWAYS been the true spokesperson of the previous administration and the Democrats in general. Nobody is more eloquent, articulate and adept as he is. And he never gets rattled.
He’s the only viable candidate at the moment. A big factor in favour is that he wasn’t afraid to go on Fox and be interviewed and he pretty much fought his corner well. There are many who will attack his lifestyle but his public record is impeccable.
I thought your Constitution had a much-lauded mechanism to overcome tyrannical government…just how tyrannical must it get before that mechanism—assuming it does exist in some form—kicks in?
He wants us to protest so he can send the military. Not saying we shouldn't just saying... He doesn't give two shits what the courts say as they are "not valid" just like the election in 2020. He wants the Democrats to try to shut down government so he can lock them out of the process.
He has always been my choice for president. If I lived in a world where he could elected I would be happy.
Mexico, Australia, Ireland are all light years ahead of the US.
He is always the smartest person in the room. He reminds me of JFK. I will keep my 🤞 that America becomes enlightened.
Pete shows such leadership qualities at all times. 2 bad America is behind the rest of the world 2 recognize a talent instead of who they live with. We all want the same things in life, love, comfort, security & respect. In America Donald Trump is a deplorable rapist & yet Americans voted 4 him ??
Harsh words and a photo op at Treasury, or lawsuits are not stopping the richest man. DC Police can make arrests in Fed Buildings. Bring them and crowbars. OPEN the building. ARREST Elon's Blackwater security contractors. Do NOT leave until done. FFS Stop bringing a knife to a gun fight.
Once we physically secure the buildings we can wait for the courts. Otherwise, there will be nothing left. They already toke the sign off the USAID building on Friday.
But look how much damage he caused, how many people died, while we waited for him to back down. And court cases only work if they don’t ignore the judgments. Who will stop them? Not Congress. And the DoD works for him now.
These were our funds. I have no trust that our funds have no already been moved by Musk to some offshore accounts. We have no way of verifying any of this.
But has he stopped, is there proof that Musk and the hackers out of our systems? Or did they just put in a back door and move over to the next agency to continue work and start destruction of the next pillar?
Love Pete, would love a full movement. I know we all work and are broke (it’s set up like that) but we need a full prolonged boycott like the Selma buses on a nationwide level.
We need retired military to come out big time against trump... Like they did when America left Afghanistan and then went rogue into Afghanistan and Ukraine..
You have a voice & large following to say these things, a 4 year trump presidency is not going to affect you much.
U will never go to a store with a calculator to make sure u don’t grab more than u have money for or only put $10 gas in your car because it’s all u have.
I get that. What frustrates me is the fact that “the rich & famous” just talk.
There’s no real action behind any of these words. Average peeps like you and me can JOIN in their ACTIONS but you and me can’t really take any action that would result in anything.
Like our should have been President Kamala Harris said about RAT FUCKER VON SHITZHISPANTS IS CONSTANT CHAOS! All of us sound thinking clear facts focus on what he really is trying to slid through all the CHAOS.
Where are our fail safes? This is a coup and no one is doing anything. I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic. Doesn’t say anything about supporting or defending the president.
In South Africa (where Elon is from) there are fewer white people, but they own the majority of land and wealth.
White people in America have forever feared becoming the minority. That is why interracial marriage was illegal in the first place!
This is exactly what the KKK fundamentally believe!
This is a general truth regardless of the country: when “big state” is made smaller by outsourcing services it’s those in charge (or their mates) who get the contracts.
#Corruption1.0
The funds still ate not reaching foundations after the freeze was supposedly stopped. They rightly think no one will actually stop them. Who will? They own the DoJ, FBI, and the Marshals.
Really?? Looked into??? and while you are farting about "looking into" it he's carrying on shredding other stuff and doing more damage...seriously you Dems & others are sleep walking into a Dictatorship

I love Pete! We caucused for him in Coralville/Iowa City, Iowa in 2020. Knocked on many doors to get “ commit to caucus” cards signed. He won the Iowa primary. Then…..
I hope he or Wes Moore run in 2028!
Sec. Pete is actually right, and very true. US media SHOULD confront and expose his lies while in front of a camera and a hot mic, and never be afraid of his threats.
E.g. When he says, there is a lot of frauds that Elon has discovered, media should demand him proofs and full explanation.
These are also your fire arms as well, if it comes to it. You have a right to defend yourselves by the Constitution whether they shred it or not. You need to use your 2nd Amendment rights against this oppressive, fascist government of MAGA.
This is why I say organised national strikes by as many Unions, Institutions and businesses that you can get to sign up.
Stop the Money flow, the ONLY way to Hurt the rich is via the Bank Balance.
Remember this phrase: TRUMP LIES. Sure he *said* he rescinded the spending freeze, but nobody is getting paid, no funds are flowing, and he sent his DOJ to go after the judge who issued the order. So no, the only response so far is more lies and ignoring court orders.
Call your representatives, both state and local. Sound the alarms. Organize a visit to their offices.
200+ million of us didn't vote for this. Make sure they hear every voice!
Yes, we do hold some power but T doesn’t care if we have power. He will just go around the standing laws. My only hope is he does destroy our country before the elections two years from now
Don’t depend on the Feds. Your Republican reps at that level are like insects controlled by a zombie fungus. Go after your state reps. And local gov. Don’t let your school board turn into Shasta County.
We've been told before to have faith in the courts, the checks and balances. And yet here we are. And we're expected to believe they will be held in check now? I have no faith in Democrats, the electorate, journalism, that 1+1 is 2, or the courts.
For keeps this time? Because I spent a sleepless week and a half getting my severely disabled daughters Medicaid back. I had to start from scratch with a doctors proof of need and supplies needed to the supply company. Still skimping and hoping for a late shipment. I don't want to do this again. 😫

They will remove judges — and install loyalist judges who reinterpret and reshape the Constitution into fascist law.
This is straight up Nazi fascist, authoritarian bullshit.
Trump might be stupid enough to demand it, and get annoyed when Thune says no.
We shall see. It’s going to get crazier.
It’s the right to freedom of speech.

However, he will describe his dictatorship in some benevolent, pleasant term.
What is Trump going to call his dictatorship?

Why? Because the Orange asshead will pardon him.
They're basically outside any known limits of the justice system.
