This part is just impressions. I’m not sure anyone knows. But it really seems like Trump has just given him the keys and said give it your best shot. Beyond belief what they think they’re doing.

7/ They’re not saying that last part explicitly but that’s certainly the logic of what they’re saying. (Go look at his tweets over thd last two days). So a group of Musk protégés seem to be overruling the US federal budget. Impoundment by the president is illegal. It’s hard to think through …

Don't count on any leadership from corporate Dems. Look to the people who will talk openly about wealth inequality and the undue influence of dark money in the party. Jeffries and Pelosi take AIPAC money, for starters, so they are totally compromised.
