Can you please explain how and why Elon and his boys haven’t been stopped & arrested. They aren’t vetted or cleared to touch sensitive, hippa, etc. employees

Yes, my question also! We hear a ton on law suits, but not the actions to get Musk out of our systems with sensitive information. Just baffles me!

Unlawful Fascists don't follow rules or laws, but First Lady Musk & his 24 and Under Hacker Groups posing as "Govt. Officials" illegally Invading our U.S. Treasury, U.S. Aid, NOAA would have backed the fuck down to Pepper Spray and a solid punch in the nose, something that NEPO NAZI'S 'RUMP & FIRST LADY MUSK NEVER GOT THEIR ENTIRE WARPED WHITE RICH MALE LIVES.

The ethics expert Walt Shaub says he's undoubtably violating criminal laws. But do we have a DOJ who will prosecute him? https://open.substack.com/pub/contrarian/p/musks-status-in-government-may-violate?r=151l1&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false

Social security and Medicare are NOT ENTITLEMENTS!!! I, and many others have worked our lives paying in to these programs!!

The dole that Musk collects is entitlement.

Expand full comment

Absolutely 💯 agree! I was just telling my sister this morning that I worked over 43 years and to get my first SS check this month, but worried I will not. I also said one thinks they can relax and enjoy your remaining years and now our lives are in upheaval with much unknown. Musk needs to be charged and removed from getting access to our information system 😒

I’m particularly fond of the idea of revoking all of his contracts. He also seems to be “challenged” in the safety department with those contracts, so yank them!

Expand full comment

I agree. His 7th attempt with his heavy rocket failed. Clearly he doesn't know what he's doing and just playing with someone elses money.

I worked more than 60 years before drawing on my SS.

FK that! The system is rigged to make people work themselves into an early grave. Thank goodness I had other options to be able to resign from my last toxic job and collect my P&T disability and ssdi. Screw the govt. They don't give a damn about us.

Social Sevurity uses the word entitlement …. Per a worker there, it’s because we worked for it and we are entitled to it.

The right has made it synonymous with a handout/welfare.

That's why we need to flood the media with the truth. Unmake it.

Interesting, that so many that voted for The Orange Menace, themselves, rely on those “entitlements”

The MAGA idiotic morons are cheering musk going in and taking control of the governemnt computers.......they are cheering musk having access to their personal info......they are cheering that musk can just stop all SS payments, all Medicare and Medicaid payments, stop all VA benefits payments, ........they do not understand they are taking away THEIR OWN money, but also their parents and/or grandparents.......Is grandma/grandpa in a nursing home? Well, who is going to take care of them when they get kicked out because Medicaid payments are stopped? They also do not understand that if all the government Civil Servants are fired that everything they rely on comes to screeching halt. Because there will be NO ONE to make SS payments, Medicare/Medicaid payments. There will be NO ONE to process their tax return and therefore will not get their refunds. and so much more.........idiotic MORONS......

This became very clear during the Covid crisis, all the conspiracy theories from genetic specialists who had a 4-hour YouTube training:

the Dunning Kruger effect.

Someone overestimates their own knowledge/ability and does not recognize when they are sitting opposite an expert.

It is a tragedy that the USA is now run by people who are hypnotized by the Dunning Kruger effect.

They must be away from computers (data to control payments to enforce obedience)

and nuclear buttons.

Why didn't the guy in charge of protecting gov. databases and classified information call the capitol police to keep Musk and his Muskrats from hacking and recoding our computers? I can't believe the capitol police would not have been happy to arrest these criminals. Why weren't these critical computers protected with armed security in the first place?

Well he got what he wanted. But you know the expression "don't wish too hard. You might get it". While Donald was busy reading Mein Kampf he forgot to remember the French Revolution and Louis XVI (take note Melania-Antoinette). and the killing of the Tsar. He is the biggest coward. He would shove Ivanka and definitely Melania in front of a train to save himself. Probably hired a Big-Mac" taster".

Don't pay taxes this year, file extentions in mass.

Expand full comment

Thought of that, but things could be even worse by Oct., plus some people depend on their refunds. Anyone out there who works for the IRS have info or advice on this problem?

Expand full comment

Former IRS employee....and extension is ONLY for filing the return......IF YOU OWE TAXES those taxes MUST BE PAID by April 15th!

Expand full comment

Thanks for spreading the truth, Ellen. I'm still very concerned about filing now because of the data breech. I saw this morning the dems are launching a Taxpayer Protection Act, which—even if successful—only closes the door after Elon and his goons have already downloaded all our private data. Do you think it's wiser to wait a bit to e-file to see what instructions the IRS issues (if any!) to protect filers from fraud and abuse? I haven't called them because no doubt they're being inundated with calls and even if the call is picked up, you get put on hold forever. This is a disaster for trust in the IRS, which is low to begin with.

Expand full comment

To be honest I do not know....I mean they already have access to your information.....so filing a return probably won't reveal anything they do not already have. IF you want your refund, I would suggest you file as soon as possible before they decimate the number of employees.......once the employees are gone they will not replace them and you may NEVER see your refund......But each person will have to make their own decision based on their own individual circumstances.

I have gotten money back all my working life, now in retirement, I have to pay!

Expand full comment

You already paid your taxes through the payroll tax system, except for any additional amount you owe at filing.

Expand full comment

I am not going to file with these crooks!

Expand full comment

If you know you owe, it doesn't matter. My policy is that I pay most of my taxes, but not all of them, so I usually have a small bill at tax time. Why give the money to the government ahead of time as it's just a free loan? So, if you know you owe a little, just file for an extension and pay later. With how things are going, will there be a government to fund by the fall?

Expand full comment

THAT is NOT how it works......extensions are for filing the RETURN ONLY....any taxes owed are STILL DUE by April 15th........READ the INSTRUCTIONS concerning extensions!!

Filing an extension is for filing your return ONLY.....IF you owe tax it is STILL due by April 15.

So... tRump giving Skum the power to cut off SS, Medicaid, etc. makes perfect sense because when the proverbial Sh1t hits the fan and the pitchforks start coming out, he can say "It wasn't ME, Go After HIM!"

Expand full comment

OK. Let's go after Musk and his goons then. Hard to go after King Tyrant now that he's got the entire MAGA party kissing his feet and ceding their legislative powers to a demented old man. Anyone who's represented by one of them could make an impact by filling their offices and phone lines with protesters demanding the little Nazis be arrested and held accountable. They want to get reelected; let them know they will not. And when Elon threatens to spend his billions to "primary" them, remind them of what Bernie did with contributions averaging $35.

A fundamental, life-threatening problem with HIV medication (as I have heard it with my limited understanding):

if treatments are interrupted in Africa, resistance develops and patients cannot be treated any further.

Expand full comment

Yeah. That kind of tripped me up too. But there is a difference between the Republican generated connotation and the true meaning of the word. Having paid into Social Security since I was 15 years old, I am now entitled to my benefits.

Expand full comment

Then they should be called earned benefits . I also payed in since I was 13.

Expand full comment

They Are "Entitlements".

We Pay Into Them, Therefore We ARE "Entitled" To Them. I think the definition gets mixed up with something that is rightfully owed to someone over we'll say some spoiled rotten rich kids who think that they can have anything they want based solely upon who they are. Hope that helps out a little.

Then Rick Scott needs to be publicly "Educated" on the entire subject. Not that it would actually make a difference, but at least We can come out of this knowing that he has been informed.

This seems basic but i can’t find an answer. There are laws. If I break a law, I get arrested. If Musk, as well as his six boys, breaks a law why do we have to rely on nonprofits, unions, private citizens, etc to enforce the law? Serious question.
