Makes one wonder… If Musk gets his way encouraging everyone to have babies citing “BIGGEST CRISIS FOR MANKIND: DEPOPULATION”… With no access to abortions (PROJECT 2025)… Cutting social program (DOGE)… How can one then afford a child without having a billionaire dad? Maybe that’s their goal?

But yet, any negative effects will be attributed to Biden’s economy. And his supporters will support it. Fuck you Trump and MAGAts everywhere.

I’m encouraged seeing the Palestinian people protesting against their “leaders” who don’t give a rat’s ass about them. Not much different than the US government who doesn’t give a shit about anyone without a 1B net worth. We, the people of the world, need to continue this stand against tyranny!

“We are approaching Defcon 1 for our democracy and a lot of people in the media and the opposition leadership don’t seem to be communicating that to the American people. That is the biggest danger of the moment we’re in now: the normalisation of it.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

“He's a heartless self absorbed weenie” sums it up perfectly.
Post on X by a user named Ed Kwok, with the handle @kwok_xian. The post reads: "Musk seems actually surprised at the backlash against him after he brandished a chainsaw WHILE he laughed about cutting American jobs. He's a heartless self absorbed weenie."

Since when does something as silly as our constitution stop the MAGA train wreck? This is the next step in dumbing down US citizens and rewriting our history/laws to have a PermaMAGA authoritarian party.

Well, it depends on how you define “better”. If you are an authoritarian and prefers a dumb population that votes like a sheep, then maybe this will, in fact, make it “better”.

In the late 1940s into the 1950s, the US sought to ideologically deport individuals, including those who had lived in the US for most of their lives. "Should Miss Liberty Be Deported?" is a pamphlet in 1950 calling on the public to help challenge these deportations. Ch. 5 in "Threat of Dissent" 🗃️

I truly wish it was as simple at this. You “should” be right. But the constitution is outdated in this modern world, and like religious texts, can be be interpreted in various ways. Trump’s “crew” includes MANY lawyers hired just to find loopholes to circumvent the constitution.

Nope. I can’t see them getting any overseas business and they already lost over half of US since November. Musk’s business instincts are terrible. And SOMEHOW he is the one in charge of streamlining our country? Can you pick a worse person for this?

Sadly, I am not sure what can be done here short of secession of the bluer states from the rest of the US. Under this regime (a.k.a. Project 2025), US citizens will become more indoctrinated, uneducated, poor and have more babies. The system will eventually fail. That’s what the “voters” want.
