Dear World, (An Apology From Decent Americans) Dear World,

Dear Leaders of the Free World,

Fight him at every turn.
Make his life miserable.
Expose his ignorance and sociopathy.
Oppose and condemn and marginalize him.
The decent people of this nation are not with him.

We stand with you.

It’s happening, people. Elon Musk’s hostile takeover of federal government infrastructure is now in progress.

So who has Musk corralled to help him execute his plans?

Musk has hired a bunch of β€œengineers” who are barely out of college. At least one may still be in school.

Musk’s DOGE lackeys…

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!

I’m confused how awarding 4 years of back pay in a lump sum to 8,000 service members who were discharged for refusing to get vaccinated is good for the morale of the other 99% of troops who spent the last 4 years working their asses off on active duty for that same pay.

We need to pay attention to this now before it’s too late.

i will say that we have never experienced anything like an administration trying to essentially freeze the activities of the entire federal government while making a series of illegal power grabs. genuinely unclear to me what kind of response, if any, these guys are generating against them

The serial sexual abuser who bragged about grabbing women by the pussy has already appointed a lifetime Supreme Court seat to a man credibly accused of sexual assault, and now he’s appointed a man who has been credibly accused of sexual assault to lead our armed forces.

Any reasonable American would agree the First Amendment was not meant to protect foreign propaganda aimed at destabilizing our nation.

Then why does its most prolific amplifier enjoy such protection?

It's way past time to hold Elon Musk accountable.

β€˜Every time Donald Trump makes an outrageous public statement, a Republican passes an unconstitutional law.’

It’s like A Wonderful Life but without the wonderful and not much of the life.

Republicans want to undo DEI and bring job allocation back to the fair & just way it used to be - hiring unqualified wealthy white males whose Daddy is friends with the boss.

Ahead of LA fires damage tour Trump makes false water claims. Here's what experts say President Trump and others are spreading false narratives about water and the LA wildfires. These include the notion that the city didn't have enough water to fight the fires.

Trump has deployed active military to help round up migrants and put them into detention camps.

The military forced us out of our homes at gunpoint in 1942 because we were considered possibly disloyal Americans. They sent us to internment camps for four years.

History is repeating. Pay attention.
