Taking those resources offline will kill people.

Elon Musk now has access to your Social Security number. The world’s richest man has gained access to the confidential personal information of every taxpayer in the United States.

Don’t let the Chaos distract you from noticing that they are taking over all financial and personnel data in an administrative coup. Make calls, call them out, beat on drums - and read HCRichardson’s latest column β€”Mine eyes have seen the glory. Honor Black History Month, and remember NiemΓΆller.

Welp…looking around and the events of the last two weeks, the only β€œlogic” is Maximal Chaos. No other reason to invent war with Canada and Mexico, etc. And the Cheat-o hope that while the Chaos captures our attention, we won’t notice the Muskrat Brigade storming the castle.
