Remember: the tut-tutters told us it’s not a Constitutional crisis until they’re defying court orders, and then only if it’s SCOTUS orders. As long as DOJ abides this, it’s a Constitutional crisis, even by THEIR definition. And it’s all crickets rn.

I’m sure your entire business model isn’t at risk or anything if this fascist guy completes his coup so you’ll probably be fine. Maybe just let them own the libs … and capture the entire government. It’s gotta be good for ratings … until it isn’t.

We don’t do everything right and, for lack of resources, we often use antiquated tools and processes, but we’re not the lazy useless bastards he wants everyone to think we are and none of his successes would exist without *this* government, without us. Talk about biting the hand that feeds.

Elon wants to paint gov spending as inherently suspect or wasteful bc that’s popular and easy. It’s considered ✌️political✌️ and unseemly for public servants to toot our own horns. But we provide huge economic and social value and could provide even more if given the resources.

For shits and giggles, if you remove the gov stimmy checks Dems passed and Trump signed, his first term economic performance is even worse, approaching Great Depression. And beyond the math, ceteris paribus, our economy would not have recovered until ≈2-3 years later, optimistically.

Those are other words.
Those are precisely the other words.
We refer to the equation for GDP as the “national account identity”. It is definitional. IOW, if you exclude one of the components, you’re not calculating a “more accurate” GDP. You’re calculating something else that isn’t GDP.

And they conform to the Administrative Procedure Act. So it’s not people lack opportunity to weigh in, sue for relief, etc. He may be new here but that doesn’t mean everything else is or we have to justify everything to him, personally, again. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adminis...

Editor’s note: the [Elon] was never restored
comment in response to
post
We will make mistakes. We won't be perfect. But when we make a mistake, we will fix it very quickly. So, for example, with [DOGE], one of the things we accidentally canceled very briefly was [Elon]. I think we all want [Elon]. So we restored [Elon] immediately, and there was no interruption.

[Elon] should be default gone. Not default there, default gone. And if it turns out that we missed the mark on a [Elon], we can always add it back in

Protest. Write letters/emails. Make phone calls. Share cookies. Host parties. DO NOT be violent. DO NOT block traffic or disrupt daily life. Be visible, not contemptible. Be the people everyone likes, not the people everyone hates.

Let Rs say we can’t afford it so we have to starve children to death to save 3¢/American/yr. Put it on billboards, go on all the podcasts, do the things and spread the word
