The world’s richest man has declared war on the federal government, and his influence appears unchecked.
Summary
Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, has boldly declared a war on the federal government, aggressively reshaping public discourse and challenging established authority.
Using a ‘special government employee’ role via an executive order, Musk established DOGE to cut $500 billion in annual spending, strictly bypassing oversight.
Musk targeted USAID, declaring it as criminal while proposing its shutdown, and appointed young, inexperienced aides and former Tesla staff to federal positions.
These maneuvers have sparked partisan debates, raised conflict-of-interest concerns, and underscored a dramatic shift in federal power dynamics in a nation-wide upheaval.
What fucking debate needs to happen? This country is literally being handed to an unelected oligarch who's dismantling and robbing it blind, and it's up for partisan debate? What fucking lunacy. It deserves to fall, quite frankly.
You really have to wonder what Putin and Russia's role in all of this has been.
Because it feels like us straining our relationships with Canada, the EU / NATO, and pushing BRICS countries further away, benefits them more than anybody else.
And certainly our economic might being sabotaged from within would benefit them and China on the world stage.
Especially when you consider the whole Mexico and Canada tariff saga was mostly just staged chaos that probably was never intended to do anything other than erode our reputation in the international community.
Well yeah. He'll be dealt with the same way Trump likes to deal with other "very bad men". In his eyes, anyone that wrongs him is committing treason to the highest degree.
No, it's not good to chop people up, no matter how much you hate them. Elon should be stopped. That's it. Stop acting "hard" on the internet. It makes you look stupid.
Edit: All the wannabe sicarios in the comments will wilt like the bitch-made invertebrates they are when actually faced with the prospect of dismembering a person. If they don't, they're psychopaths who need psychiatric treatment.
"He's committing the must heinous crimes against our society, a hostile takeover of the government, completely bypassing the rule of law. Could there be some kind of conflict of interest here?"
