Gonna be the asshole to point out the most intense resistance outside of the Beltway is coming from our most offline Americans - old people who go to town halls.

Musk may get to be a dictator at Tesla, but last I checked there is no Elon Musk Article in the Constitution — something he doesn’t seem to realize. He wants to delegitimize the courts because the next step is to shut down his whole illegal and corrupt DOGE enterprise.

For the record, the idea of the entire federal workforce flooding an OPM email inbox with their weekly task reports is insurmountable stupid.

Even before Trump 2.0, the Social Security Administration’s staffing levels were at a 50-year low due to a decade of budget caps & cuts authored by GOP lawmakers. Further staff cuts and office closures can only make things worse for America's most vulnerable. New, @propublica.org
