Congress allocated those funds... The courts need to start taking action YESTERDAY.

I figured they'd run into a conflict the first time they request access to non-public information they don't have the authority to see.

Turns out they got around that by just not asking.

Might as well get your popcorn ready for when he gets to Social Security and Medicare.

Elon Musk Suggests Getting Rid Of All Regulations In Midnight Call

"If it's not possible now, it'll never be possible," Musk said of his proposal to simply ignore all federal regulation as a baseline.

because not enough products are exploding yet for Tesla standards.

 

[Rhinox]

I need Canada, Mexico, and the EU to place 1000% tariffs on all Tesla products. If we take his ******* bankroll, Elon becomes a lot less dangerous.
Take his ******* money, shut his ass down.

 

[Dekafox]

The Teslas aren't his real product anyways there though, it's the carbon credits that he was reselling. The vehicles are just a means to an end.

DOJ threatens legal action against 'anyone who impedes' Elon Musk's DOGE work

The Trump-appointed U.S. attorney of Washington said the Justice Department will pursue legal action against "anyone who impedes" on Musk's DOGE work.

This article also point out something I had not seen before now.. DOGE is a rebrand of an existing agency.

Musk's Department of Government Efficiency was created by an executive order on Trump's first day in office that rebranded an existing agency known as The United States Digital Service into DOGE.

Musk still hasn't been approved by the Senate at all, but the agency itself may have some standing due to that, depending on what Congress authorized that agency to do. Otherwise, someone might be able to use the killing of Chevron Deference against them to rein it in.

Also hearing the engineer he put in charge of the Treasury systems has already been pushing code changes to production with no testing, QA, or review by anyone else.

Just like the orange cancer, he's trying to run the country the way he runs his businesses.

Huge protest at the Treasury Department, with House and Senate Democrats turning up:

The Treasury Department right now. People are turning out against Musk and DOGE staging a takeover of the Treasury’s payment system. This crowd is big. The whole block is packed. “Lock him up,” everyone yells.

I mean, i'll try to be a bit optimistic, but we need more than just protests and chants. we'll see if anything changes.

 

[Ungnome]

There's also protests planned in EVERY state capital tomorrow. We'll see how that goes. Hopefully it is the start of a sea change in American politics and we can excise the MAGA cult once and for all.
