Trump & Vance are disgusting PIGS rambling on about how Zelensky didn't thank them and how bad that is... THIS was a publicity stunt for King Trump to show Putin that he's a STRONGMAN -and on Putin's side. This was a planned public flogging of Zelensky. Pathetic. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

I have no idea what, if anything, Democratic leadership (?) is doing. Donald's and Musk's actions need to be fiercely challenged. Is Musk a government employee? Is DOGE legitimately a government agency? How is DOGE/MUSK accountable for anything they do? To whom? Privacy laws? Broken!

Elon Musk is not a Federal employee or a political appointee. DOGE is not a real department. None of their activities are legal. This is a coup. The Republicans in Congress are willing participants in it. At what point do Democrats in DC get that and start acting like it? It’s not the price of eggs!

Every member of Congress must ask this question because there are only two possibilities: 1. Bondi knew and let him off the hook anyway. 2. Bondi didn't know and needs to explain why she can be trusted on the Federal level when she couldn't protect children from statutory rape on a State level.
