NEW: How Elon Musk Muscled His Way Into the FAA
FAA employees were told that anyone who impeded progress of the new FAA-SpaceX partnership would be reported to Musk and risked losing their jobs.
A ton of scoopy news in this new report
bloomberg.com
The FAA’s telecommunications networks are instrumental to overseeing 29 million square miles of US airspace and ensuring the orderly and safe movement of 45,000 flights daily. They are aging and long overdue for an upgrade. In 2023, the agency awarded telecommunications giant Verizon Communications Inc. a contract worth $2.4 billion to do just that.
Now, just days after Malaska arrived at the FAA, the fate of Verizon’s contract is up in the air as the agency considers whether to cede part of it to SpaceX . . .

Turn Your Despair Into Action

Please Feel Free To Forward

FOR THOSE OF YOU LOOKING TO TURN YOUR despair INTO ACTION, here’s some advice from a high-level staffer for a Senator.

There are two things that we should be doing all the time right now.
You should NOT be bothering with online petitions or emailing.

1) The best thing you can do to be heard and get your congressperson to pay attention is to have face-to-face time — if they have town halls, go to them.

❤️️ Go to their local offices. If you’re in DC, try to find a way to go to an event of theirs.
❤️️ Go to the “mobile offices” that their staff hold periodically (all these times are located on each congressperson’s website). When you go, ask questions. A lot of them. And push for answers. The louder and more vocal and present you can be at those the better.

2) But those in-person events don’t happen every day. So, the absolute most important thing that people should be doing every day is calling.

YOU SHOULD MAKE DAILY CALLS:

2 each (DC office and your local office) to your 2 Senators & your 1 Representative.

The staffer was very clear that any sort of online contact basically gets immediately ignored (note: I did get reply from both Fetterman and McCormick using online contact), and letters pretty much get thrown in the trash (unless you have a particularly strong emotional story — but even then it’s not worth the time it took you to craft that letter).

Calls are what all the congress people pay attention to.

Every single day, the Senior Staff and the Senator get a report of the 3 most-called-about topics for that day at each of their offices (in DC and local offices), and exactly how many people said what about each of those topics.

They’re also sorted by zip code and area code.

She said that

Republican callers generally outnumber Democrat callers 4-1, and when it’s a particular issue that single-issue-voters pay attention to (like gun control, or planned parenthood funding, etc…), it’s often closer to 11-1, and that’s recently pushed Republican congressmen on the fence to vote with the Republicans. In the last 8 years, Republicans have called, and Democrats haven’t.

So, when you call:

A) When calling the DC office,
ask for the Staff member in charge of whatever you’re calling about
(“Hi, I’d like to speak with the staffer in charge of Healthcare, please”)
— local offices won’t always have specific ones, but they might. If you get transferred to that person, awesome. If you don’t, that’s ok — ask for that person’s name, and then just keep talking to whoever answered the phone. Don’t leave a message (unless the office doesn’t pick up at all — then you can — but it’s better to talk to the staffer who first answered than leave a message for the specific staffer in charge of your topic).

Give them your zip code.

They won’t always ask for it, but make sure you give it to them, so they can mark it down. Extra points if you live in a zip code that traditionally votes for them, since they’ll want to make sure they get/keep your vote.

C) If you can make it personal, make it personal.

“I voted for you in the last election and I’m worried/happy/whatever” or “I’m a teacher, and I am appalled by ——-,” or “as a single mother” or “as a white, middle class woman,” or whatever.

D) Pick 1-2 specific things per day to focus on.

Don’t rattle off everything you’re concerned about — they’re figuring out what 1-2 topics to mark you down for on their lists. So, focus on 1-2 per day. Ideally something that will be voted on/taken up in the next few days, but it doesn’t really matter — even if there’s not a vote coming up in the next week, call anyway. It’s important that they just keep getting calls.

E) Be clear on what you want — “I’m disappointed that the Senator…” or “I want to thank the Senator for their vote on… ” or “I want the Senator to know that voting in _____ way is the wrong decision for our state because… ” Don’t leave any ambiguity.

F) They may get to know your voice/get sick of you — it doesn’t matter.

The people answering the phones generally turn over every 6 weeks anyway, so even if they’re really sick of you, they’ll be gone in 6 weeks.

From experience since the election: If you hate being on the phone & feel awkward (which is a lot of people) don’t worry about it — there are a bunch of scripts (Indivisible has some, there are lots of others floating around these day). After a few days of calling, it starts to feel a lot more natural.

To be clear: the Judge ordered Elon and the DOGE bros to delete any data they illegally acquired since Trump took office.
We are going to make sure they comply.

Elon Musk owes the American people $168 billion dollars.
That’s the penalty for illegally acquiring data for the 168 million people he has accessed data on.
A $1000 penalty per person.

Musk isn’t making government smaller.
He’s shutting down the parts of the government that have been investigating his companies for safety violations and ties to Russia.

Kakistocracy a system of government which is run by the worst, least qualified, or most unscrupulous citizens.

  • Musk’s DOGE teen was fired by cybersecurity firm for leaking company secrets
  • The NY Post says the NYPD found a huge pedophile Satanic cult through an arrest of a guy who was part of Order of Nine Angles (09A) which is a violent esoteric Nazi death cult responsible for a number of murders.
    09A was founded by David Myatt w/Mike Flynn’s muse Michael Aquino. One of the DOGE employees, 19 year old Edward Coristine, was a member of a group of National Socialist pedophiles called 764 that “target, groom, extort and cause physical and psychological harm to victims as young as 10.” Any more questions about what’s going on here?

This is the Satanic National Socialist pedophile cult that DOGE employee, 19-year old Edward Coristine, was a member of.
“The Com” or “764” extorts CSAM from children. It is an extension of “Order of Nine Angles” or O9A, a death cult which has notched numerous murders.

ABSURD As soon as one of them (age 25!) was discovered to have written some blatantly racist remarks, the narrative flipped to please to forgive them because they’re “just kids”.

Edward Coristine, a 19-year-old member of Elon Musk’s squad that’s crisscrossing US government agencies, was fired from an internship after he was accused of sharing information with a competitor.
“Edward has been terminated for leaking internal information to the competitors,” said a June 2022 message from an executive of the firm, Path Network, which was seen by Bloomberg News. “This is unacceptable and there is zero tolerance for this.” Coristine, who also interned at Musk’s Neuralink according to a cached online biography, is part of a core group of DOGE employees who are gathering datasets on government personnel, contracts and programs, according to people familiar with the matter. They asked not to be named because they don’t have permission to discuss the matter publicly. Coristine and other colleagues have discussed how they can use that data to potentially replace government employees with artificial intelligence and train chatbots to do the work.The Wall Street Journal reported Thursday that a different member of the DOGE team had resigned after racist posts were discovered on his social media account.

KASH PATEL An FBI Director with significant financial ties to China and Russia?  Will any Republican put American security first and oppose Kash Patel?

#RussVoight AUTHOR IF PROJECT 2025  Russ Voight does’t deserve to be anywhere near the White House, as an architect of Project 2025 he’s going to take a blowtorch to the US Constitution. Russ Vought, Trump’s budget guy just confirmed 53-47 by the senate, caught on a hidden camera saying Trump’s Project 2025 disavowal was a lie, they’re keeping their real plans secret, they want to only let in Christian immigrants, etc.. He is an abortion abolitionist, meaning he supports *prosecuting abortion as homicide and putting women in prison* even in cases of rape or when the mother’s life is at risk. He’s an extremist who has NO place in government.

Vought’s aim is to destroy govt from the inside out, and Musk’s motive is more sinister. As he partners with Visa on a payment app, he has an interest in ensuring the CFPB doesn’t get in his way.

One of the first things Russ Vought did after being confirmed was to shut down the agency that protects consumers from predatory banks. He’s targeting you and protecting fraudulent banksters.
