“…the liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerated the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than the democratic state itself. That in its essence is fascism:
ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or any controlling private power.” – FDR, 1938

They couldn’t revoke of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 so they are removing the system of enforcing that legislation. This gives White people a green light to discriminate against Black people in education, banking, healthcare etc without recourse. A return to KKK Jim Crow antics.

Why Trump runs America like a mob boss.
Respects other major powers like China/Russia and disrespects friends. Because Russia/China are like the other 5 families and other nations are just paying into his “protection racket”.

JUST HOW BAD IS IT?
DOGE is considering no longer letting senior citizens file Social Security claims over the phone, and requiring them to do it online or in person.
One of the engineers at DOGE — who’s been with Musk for 28 years — has a very Russian ex-wife who was married to Musk’s cousin, also grandson of Nazi Joshua Haldeman.

Now it comes together. Who is the DOGE and X Technician Branden Spikes?
https://krebsonsecurity.com/2025/03/who-is-the-doge-and-x-technician-branden-spikes/
Here is a photo from a 2011 event organized by the California Russian Association, showing Branden and Natalia at one of its “White Nights” charity fundraisers.
Maye Musk’s father, Joshua Haldeman, was Canadian leader of a pro-Hitler, technocratic movement that wanted a “Technate of America” spanning from Greenland to Colombia.
Last night, she rode on Marine One, right before Trump sided with Putin over Europe.
Anyone who thinks that Greenland, Canada, Panama was Trumps original idea, doesn’t realize who the real puppeteer is. It’s Musk.
There are too many reasons to count for why Tesla needs to die. The fact that it’s the deadliest car company in America is just one. No one—anywhere, for any reason—should buy a Tesla. They’re poorly made, unsafe, and enrich one of the most evil men alive.

Bad news for Tesla owners. Not only will people be flipping you off and desecrating your swasticar, the resale value of Tesla EVs has plummeted. Nobody wants to be seen driving an EV that’s become analogous with its Nazi CEO. $TSLA Boycotting Tesla isn’t illegal, using your office to advertise Tesla is.

Trump will point to Howard Lutnick who will take the fall.
“There will be no recession in America”, says Trump Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick (on Sunday March 9th, 2025).
2 days later…
“These [Trump trade policies] will be worth it [even if they cause a recession]”

Elon Musk just used taxpayer money to host a car sale at the White House after cutting funding for schools and preparing to fire 80,000 VA workers.

What Elon claims DOGE saved taxpayers: $105 billion
The funding DOGE has actually cancelled: $8.6 billion
How much money Elon Musk would pay in taxes under the Ultra-Millionaire Tax Act: $9.3 billion
Elon isn’t saving taxpayers anything.

The government would have $1.3 BILLION more right now if we didn’t let giant multinational corporations like Starbucks abuse tax havens.
Why aren’t the “waste, fraud, and abuse” people talking about THIS?
Starbucks likely avoided taxes on $1.3 billion in profit using a Swiss subsidiary, a new report finds

DOGE is revoking a $2.4m grant to Sitka Alaska Tribe food assistance program because of their claim it’s a waste of money. In a food desert.

I am quite sure that around 80% of Americans want to keep the Education Department and the same for USAID. Are we really going to let 20% of the dumbest people in the country completely dismantle our federal government?

ANON – Getting rid of social security is the worst financial decision a government can make. Having retired people being homeless reflects really bad on society. Everyone pays in on it, it’s self-funding and it’s not adding to the national debt.
WHAT ARE 7 MILLION SENIORS GOING TO DO WHEN THEY DON’T GET THEIR SOCIAL SECURITY CHECKS?

Sandi Bachom @sandibachom
IT’S NOT AN ENTITLEMENT IT’S MY MONEY THEY TOOK IT OUT OF MY PAYCHECK FOR 55 YEARS

Senator Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith
Taking health care from moms and babies just doesn’t produce quite enough money to shell out to corporations and billionaires, so he simply MUST dip his paws into grandma and grandpa’s Social Security too. The rich can never be too rich right?

Pete Buttigieg @PeteButtigieg Mar 10
There were howls of protest and denial from the GOP any time we pointed out that Republicans want to cut Social Security.
Now the most powerful official in the White House goes on TV and calls it “the big one to eliminate.”

Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen
Elon Musk spent $280 million to elect Donald Trump, and Donald Trump has given him the keys to the federal government.
It’s the most corrupt bargain in American history and we need to shut it down NOW.

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray
I will not vote to weaken my power to fight for WA state.
I will not vote to turn YOUR taxpayer dollars into Trump & Elon’s personal slush funds.
I will vote NO. We should pass my short term CR, avoid a shutdown, and do our jobs.

Only five of the agency’s civil rights offices remain nationwide. Those who are still with the department say it will now be “virtually impossible” to resolve discrimination complaints.

This story is truly alarming – @kyledcheney has buried the lede. The FBI has told Citibank that recipients of EPA climate grants are being considered as potentially liable for fraud. That is, the Trump administration wants to criminalize work on climate science and impacts.
JUST IN: Citibank reveals in a court filing that it has been asked to freeze funds for a Biden-era climate program by:
-The FBI
-The EPA administrator
-The EPA IG
-Treasury

Melania‘s pimp has entered the administration!

Paolo Zampolli founded ID Model Management and ran in the same social circles as Jeffrey Epstein, even running a charity with Ghislaine Maxwell. Zampolli claims he introduced Melania to Donald at the Kit Kat Club in NY. He had facilitated her move to the U.S. from Slovenia after finding her during one of his scouting trips to Europe in the 90s.
Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump
I am pleased to announce that I am appointing Paolo Zampolli as Special Envoy for Global Partnerships. With his extensive experience working with the United Nations, the Kennedy Center, and various International initiatives, Paolo will help us advance America’s Interests on the Global stage. Congratulations Paolo! Mar 11, 2025, 2:42 PM

NoelCaslerComedy @caslernoel
The org chart you need to see is the Trump officials with deep ties to Jeffrey Epstein and sexual predation. Howard Lutnick lived next door in NYC and Jeff’s brother brokered the deal for his E.71st townhouse. Half of Trump’s cabinet were regular guests. And then there’s RFK jr…
Kennedy clan of course kept that freakshow’s proclivities covered up for decades but it was still no secret in certain circles. Oh well, now he leads HHS and kids will die but it will make it easier to hide the folks that use them for pleasure. Vanky knows what I’m talking about.
There’s always been more reasons to NOT buy a Tesla than to buy one, they’re dangerous and poorly built, ugly, but for me it is they are made in non-Union factories, to see a POTUS hawking a shitty car that shirks it’s responsibilities to US labor is an abomination. F*ck Tesla.

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw
Read this excerpt from the devastating brief just filed by Perkins Coie, through the advocacy of Williams & Connolly, against the indefensible Trump Order punishing Perkins Coie:

“The Order is an affront to the Constitution and our adversarial system of justice. Its plain purpose is to bully those who advocate points of view that the President perceives as adverse to the views of his Administration, whether those views are presented on behalf of paying or pro bono clients.
Perkins Coie brings this case reluctantly. The firm is comprised of lawyers who advocate for clients; its attorneys and employees are not activists or partisans. But Perkins Coie’s ability to represent the interests of its clients—and its ability to operate as a legal-services business at all—are under direct and imminent threat. Perkins Coie cannot allow its clients to be bullied.
The firm is committed to a resolute defense of the rule of law, without regard to party or ideology, and therefore brings this lawsuit to declare the Order unlawful and to enjoin its implementation. [¶¶]
Because the Order in effect adjudicates and punishes alleged misconduct by Perkins Coie, it is an unconstitutional violation of the separation of powers. Because it does so without notice and an opportunity to be heard, and because it punishes the entire firm for the purported misconduct of a handful of lawyers who are not employees of the firm, it is an unconstitutional violation of procedural due process and of the substantive due process right to practice one’s professional livelihood.”

Amen!
