Rome is burning

submitted 3 days ago • 0 comments

Watching the burning of Rome while mass media normalizes and sanewashes everything with MiniTru-like care is an amazing and dissonant experience. This particular act of wanton Visigothic destruction should become noticeable to the public in a matter of weeks. news.bloomberglaw.com/daily-labor-...

It's often said that US economic advice destroyed post-Soviet Russia through deliberate state destruction: fire gov't workers, torch state capacity, sell off fixed assets to insiders, and allow oligarchs to dominate politics. Wonder why that's on my mind recently. www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...

Do it

It should be a source of profound embarrassment that a bunch of FedSoc lifers are taking a more vocal and principled stand against the corrupt Eric Adams deal than most elected Dems.

This is pretty much the whole federal government right now, from tax collection to FBI to FEMA to military recruiters to NASA to USDA to anybody. A lawless government is punishing people for implementing laws it dislikes while lawmakers hide.

Objectively, mass firing w/o new "loyal" hires degrades state capacity w/o necessarily consolidating power. The most likely explanation is that there are factions around Trump with different goals - some want fascist consolidation, others want to drown gov't in a bathtub. bsky.app/profile/norm...

One faction of the Trump admin wants to do fascist consolidation, another wants to drown the federal government in a bathtub. A 3rd just wants to play "Grand Theft Federal Treasury." Trump himself may just want to run the Kennedy Center. There's going to be some friction bsky.app/profile/mari...

Again I wonder how the timeline is doing where Al Gore became president in 2000.

Finally, some action

Shut off the electricity and water to the buildings. No food deliveries. They have to come out sometime. Arrest these treasonous hacking fuckers. No one voted for this.

What should elected Dems do? They should be at least as bold as Senator Organa and go to the Treasury to demand accountability. This isn't unreasonable - confronting a 19 year old Elon Musk tech-bro named "Big Balls" is hardly like interrupting the 501st Clone Division as they slaughter Jedi.

Elon Musk, locked in the Treasury Department's Office of Fiscal Services, has seized control of federal payments to contractors, grantees, and other entities. An image has reportedly been smuggled out by remaining civil servants.

I wonder if they confused Lutherans with Martin Luther King … or are just coming for churches

There is no "DOGE" - Elon Musk just made it up. Musk - neither elected nor appointed - is just a criminal entering gov't facilities, stealing data, and seizing control of trillions in payments. This is a heist - just one so big & blatant it becomes a coup. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...
