… Elon Musk, JD Vance and their MAGA minions are fuming at US District Judge Engelmayer’s decision to halt DOGE’s attempts to seize control of the US Treasury.
as much as I dislike CNN and Dana Bash....and the legacy media for that matter.... I thought this was epic !
… Kristi Noem was asked on CNN why she wasn’t concerned about Musk’s DOGE Bros having access to everyone’s data. Dana Bash: “I remember a time when Republicans were very careful about the government having access to personal data.” Noem: “Well, we can't trust the government anymore.” Bash: “You are the government.”
Yeah....lets all put our trust in a puppy murderer.
Let's shoot us another dog kriste NOEM❗🤡 how about one with the name of Elon 🐸 and one of Donnie😡 two puppies about a year half old or so❗ let's just shoot them next❓💩👺
No, I sadly.missed the pix. These MAGA/Trump women are of a type: fish face, LONG hair, fake boobs, vacuous in the extreme. God forbid a woman should have a brain, so intimidating.
These are not Rogue judges. This is a rogue administration. They swore an allegiance to the constitution just to wipe their ass with it. They all need to be removed, they are traitors to this country.
These fuckers will say anything. And a large swath of the country is numb to it, since this shit has been going on with these dangerous idiots in our faces for almost TEN. YEARS.
I’m glad judges still consider the private information of American citizens important and that it should be protected at all costs. It is truly flabbergasting that republicans think it’s no big deal that a billionaire and his buddies can just go rummaging through private information, with no apparent need to know, and no known action plan as to why they might need the data. Real AUDITORS, you know, the kind that do this sort of work as a business. They actually have a plan, schedules, documentation and all sorts of other shit DOGE doesn’t apparently know about or believe in. I think what we are actually witnessing is what is called a classic cluster-fuck… but don’t quote me on that.
Don’t we need to be doing everything possible to flood social media with comments about President MUSK? One method of protest in particular is to get under Trump’s skin as much as possible in efforts to sabotage him. As a psychologist it’s very easy to predict the demise of Musk’s role in the WH just as soon as Trump becomes overwhelmed by people’s claims that they are obeying, following and answering to President Musk. Trump is weak and stupid, can’t control his reactions and impulses and when he starts to feel pinched by Musk is when he will undermine Musk publicly and ultimately move him out. All of the people advising us should give us multiple scripts to put everywhere, constantly on social media questioning who is president and saying that Musk has all the power with trump as his flunky. I promise, the orange fuhrer won’t abide it.
Especially those on Truth Social. You know he reads every single comment on there. Those are all supposed to be “his people”. No way have I ever signed up for it but if others are on it antagonizing him and getting to his ego would be efficient to get Musk out of the WH which needs to happen immediately!
This is part of the far right thinking. The only reason Skum gets any is because he's rich, not because he's nice or good looking or well hung or knows how to make love to a woman.
I like Elon's bitch. I will have to use that term. I have been using orange clown and muskrat. Apparently the orange clown's people read everything on Meidas Touch. I won't subscribe to Truth Social because it would make my stomach turn. So I'll just posting everywhere else about Elon's bitch.
Nice to know that the Swastitrucks are killing their occupants at a record pace. Imagine spending all that money on something that will kill you because the guy in charge just doesn't GAF about you or anyone else. A fool and their money......
"One way to relate how this is SO emulating of Hitler and the Nazi regime, is to constantly remind people of the famous poem by then German Lutheran pastor Martin Neimoller of that era. (Thank you, Keith Francis)......
Sylvia, I am so sorry for your loss. Thank you for your husband's, and your family's, service to the United States of America. Prayers are with you all.
I hope the judge in the Treasury system hacking case will appoint a special master. The temporary order only requires the DOGE perpetrators to delete anything they may have downloaded. That will be a tough order to enforce, given the diffuse nature of hacker resources. More importantly, the court needs a special master empowered to identify, isolate and remove code that may have been implanted in the system by the hackers. Depending on the system involved, there may be "snapshots" of the pre-existing system state which could be used to identify planted code. (Assuming the hackers did not delete them.)
The judge should request Musk and his elves to come to court and describe exactly what & how they are doing. All I hear is his side of all the waste going on but where is the report as to what is what and how much. These statements without evidence gets amplified on X, FOX, and Truth Social ensuring the MAGA faithful continue to cheer on the destruction of the US government. Who is he to decide what is not acceptable (rhetorical) ? The Senate should subpoena him and/or his elves. What kind of backward government it when the identities of all the DOGE team members is unknown and access an agency's system unabated in their actions. 'This is madness, madness I tell you'
Great ideas, but what's Plan B when he and his prom teenagers tell the government to shove it and don't comply? Who's going to go arrest them? Gym Jordan was subpoenaed how many years ago and NOTHING has been done to him ignoring it.
I'm sure the US has people like that somewhere, if they haven't been fired already. The Trump Administration seems dead-set on eliminating any government capacity for protecting public health and safety.
This is far beyond a constitutional crisis. This is an attempt at a complete totalitarian takeover and there is no way to stop it. Damn, I'm terrified.
Linda, I'm old and weary, too but have heart. The congressional switchboard is being flooded with angry citizens. The Democrats, other than Fetterman, are pushing back. I hate these may be the last chapters of my life, but I also believe by making our voices heard we push Democrats to act. I try to remember Trump won by the thinnest of margins and there is already some buyers remorse. I hate it, but sometimes it has to burn down to wake people up.
I am a senior citizen and am terrified of what our country is becoming! I do not want to live my last years living in a country that will become like Russia or North Korea. I live in El Paso and have been thinking about moving to Mexico if things get worse. I'll take the cartels over this insane man and Elon Hitler. I was really enjoying my retirement until recently, with these two humans trying to overtake our country. I don't how much more I can take. The young people need to get more involved. This is their future. Trump owns the government and the military! God help us all!
I'm also a senior citizen Dolores, I had totally given up hope that there was anything we could do to save our democracy. I just shut down and blocked out all news. Then a group of my senior friends, all in their 70s and '80s, decided the least we could do was make a few phone calls. Now we communicate daily, and pledge to each make 10 phone calls or emails a day. We discuss other ways we can become part of the resistance and I have to tell you it is EMPOWERING!! Learn from Hitler, the only way to win is to resist.
I'm old and tired too, but I'm going to give it one last shot: I'm going to sit in. At my State Capitol. And I'm going to carry a sign. And if I have to do it alone--oh well. Maybe it'll start something.
I started in 1965 when I was 15 and spent most of my life fighting for social and economic justice, including working for the ACLU as a paralegal and an organizer. I've been calling my rep and my senators, and various other reps and senators as well, for the last two weeks and will continue to call them every day until I see some action on their part that goes beyond kabuki theater at a demonstration.
I don't feel either heroic or brave, but I thank you for your comment. I'm mostly really tired down to my 75-year-old bones. I wish I were 50 years younger and had some money so I could do more. The kids are going to have to save us.
Fighting is NEVER wasted. We have to get in there and fight. I’m not filing a tax return. I’m not giving one more dollar to Elon Musk. My senators and representatives are not DOING ANYTHING about this travesty. None of this rules for thee but not for me shit. We can ALL start with a tax strike.
You go, girl. Be loud and proud. It’s never wasted.
I know exactly how you feel. We can’t give up. That’s what they want. Use our experience to keep educating the younger people who lack the experience and wisdom to really understand how fragile a democracy can be, and how difficult it can be to reclaim it.
Been doing that. What's discouraging is that the kids I've talked to mean well and hate this but don't read and are appallingly ignorant about history and politics. Difficult to cut through years of a terrible educational system.
I am old as well with health issues. But I will never stop fighting against Muskrat and Elon's bitch. My husband was a veteran who passed in July. He would be devastated seeing what is going on. He worked hard all his life for SS and he deserved his VA disability. That is what I am living on is my SS and VA Spousal. I have children and grandchildren in this country who I will never stop fighting for. I have children and grandchildren in Canada as well. My parents were children in Hitler's Germany. I had family who lived in communist east Germany until they brought the wall down.
Call your representatives - I plan on calling John Fetterman and letting him know how disappointed I am in him - or calling him a dirtbag for letting this happen.
You are unrepeatable. There is a magic about you that is all your own.
You are sublimely, exactly, how you need to be at this moment.
Also: any of you “old” people…you are NOT going anywhere! You are wise and we need you in this battle. Wisdom is a shield from fear and has a cunning about it that we can put to good use!
There are millions of us out here fighting. If nothing else, we can call our elected officials and keep doing whatever good we can in our own circles of influence. It is very hard though. I hope you find some moments of peace.
You know if it comes down to it, I’m sure we can get a few million of us to show up in D.C. to let these ass-holes know we don’t like what’s currently going on.
This is how they want us to feel. So far, the courts have really been in out favor and we have lots of people out there paying attention and liking the lawsuits. If you can, support their efforts.
My fear is Musk's defiance of court orders. There is no modern precedent for that. I suppose we're about to find out if in fact we are a nation of laws.
Who's going to arrest him? The US Marshals? They are controlled by the executive branch. Musk is untouchable and knows it, and is strutting and preening in all his full-blown insane arrogance.
You say SecDef Pete Hegseth weirdly attacked his former Fox colleague Jennifer Griffin over her report that " he was spending well over $100K of taxpayer money to make “repairs” to his official govt residence". The Secretary off Defense doesn't have an "official govt residence". Only the president and VP do.
Even the wealthy need cancer clinical trials and public safety. Not to mention a competent response to avian influenza and other infectious disease risks.
I've been calling those people the American Nazi Party (ANP) since they refused to impeach Numbnuts the first time in 2019. People said I was overreacting; I said they were in denial and ignorant of history.
The Grifters On Parade (GOP) are lawless liars. I don't see how any court order can be enforced as long as they continue to support a demented old man who is under the thumb of tech billionaires with access to all our personal data and AGI (artificial general intelligence). We are experiencing an attempted global coup; if it succeeds there will be no more countries, just world wide techofeudalism.
I remember when the right was losing their minds over the conspiracy theory du jour in the 90s of the NEW WORLD ORDER. Only crickets and radio silence from legacy media now that we are actually under threat of a real global coup by the name of THE NETWORK. A group of billionaire bros outta Silicon Valley trying to take out all the world’s economies.
Thanks for the crazy but good update Ron. Enjoy the Super Bowl.
As far as Musk, Doggie, MTG, Tom Cotton, Mike Lee, Charlie Kirk, and JD. They can all have a circle jerk with each other. And good luck with that Darrel Issa, what a moron.
Kristi Noem is an absolute moron. I heard her on CNN, she is really dumb.
Are these people a product of marrying the brothers and sisters? Makes sense.
Musk is a cancer that has to be irradiated. I used to always say, why can’t we build our own space ships and get rid of him. He had too much govt clearance as it was. Here’s the byproduct of it.
“Elon is autistic and that scares people. He’s unpredictable and prone to tantrums.”
Elmo Muck IS NOT autistic, not "on the spectrum," and very definitely does not "have Asperger's." As any of we Aspergians know, no Aspergian wants to be seen as an asshole. Elmo, who was born an Asshole, uses this lie to shield himself from the response of most civilized people to an Asshole. His "tantrums" are what an entitled little rich shit does when you tell him he can't do what he knows he's entitled to do. Just like Dilbert.
Stop repeating Elmo's lies. (Also stop buying his tinny toys that only work 75% of the time and can't self-drive for shit, and have twice as many fatal accidents as any other EV on the market. hey really aren't The Official Car For Upper-Middle Class White Morons Who Think They're Makin' The World Better.
Agree totally. My kid is autistic and an ace gamer. Told me about Musk years ago. Not a genius, cheats at games, absolutely not on the spectrum, (just an entitled, tantrum-throwing ego-centric little shit) and not the richest man in the world. Investors own his companies and his cars don't work. He's been trying to suppress the safety reports for months. His value is all in his brand. That is now dropping like a rock. What do people think he's looking for in the US govt records???
That's the thing: there isn't one. He's never been officially diagnosed. All the talk of him being autistic comes directly from the man himself. I'm not buying it.
345.1 million people in the US. 77 million voted MAGA. 22%. Those are watching state media (FOX/ NYT/ NBC/ ABC/ CBS/ X/ FB/ META/ TITOK/ INSTAGRAM/ WAPO). Dont forget who is actual majority as they seize our taxpayer dollars.
• The Nuremberg judges ruled that people are responsible for their actions, even if they were following orders, if those orders were illegal under international law.
• The judges said that people could not use "following orders" as an excuse if they knew the order was illegal
• Service members of the United States Armed Forces are required to disobey orders that violate the law.

Just watched the interview. My god, Noem is so much dumber than I had realized.
Be fair. The amount of fillers and Botox Noem partakes of have probably migrated to her brain
Do the MEGA far right so-called 🤡 Republicans think before they talk
Please remember the so-called MAGA definitely ARE Republicans, we need to call them out on that very chance we get. Don't give the Party a scapegoat!
Every chance ... sorry.
It was priceless
Let's shoot us another dog kriste NOEM❗🤡 how about one with the name of Elon 🐸 and one of Donnie😡 two puppies about a year half old or so❗ let's just shoot them next❓💩👺
I’m waiting to see if Krysti Noem and Pam Bondi get the axe after Bondi’s new “no DEI” rules go into effect.
Also Press Secretary, Malibu Barbie.
Mia-
Did you see the picture of her in the oval office?
Her back was to the camera, she was standing behind Trump adjusting the drapes, OMG the white boots!
No fashion sene at all. None.
I couldn't believe the white spike heels knee length boots. Ron I so WISH we could add pictures to our comments.
No, I sadly.missed the pix. These MAGA/Trump women are of a type: fish face, LONG hair, fake boobs, vacuous in the extreme. God forbid a woman should have a brain, so intimidating.
"vacuous" is a p-e-r-f-e-c-t description of them.
DeSantis boot-envy??
You are so right, it was absolutely epic! And that Priceless moment should be broadcast on all the Airways.
These are not Rogue judges. This is a rogue administration. They swore an allegiance to the constitution just to wipe their ass with it. They all need to be removed, they are traitors to this country.
The audacity of these traitorous f*ck*rs to want to impeach a judge for stopping their illegal heist of private information is too much.
These fuckers will say anything. And a large swath of the country is numb to it, since this shit has been going on with these dangerous idiots in our faces for almost TEN. YEARS.
I just can't believe a man baby runs a government on social media
Yale should revoke JD’s law degree.
I’m glad judges still consider the private information of American citizens important and that it should be protected at all costs.

They only think it's no big deal because it's a republican doing it. We'd be peeling them off the ceiling if it was a democrat.
What constitution? They burned it

I say continuously refer to Trump as Elon’s “Bitch”. That would really get under Trump’s skin!
Especially those on Truth Social. You know he reads every single comment on there. Those are all supposed to be “his people”. No way have I ever signed up for it but if others are on it antagonizing him and getting to his ego would be efficient to get Musk out of the WH which needs to happen immediately!
I’m on TS. I used to comment more regularly, but it’s just stomach churning to see all of the posts. I’ll hit it again
Laugh at Musk. Remind Elon THAT NO ONE LIKES HIM.
Mention the size of his equipment, too. As Kara Swisher mentioned in her appearance on Ezra Klein, Musk and Co. have a lot of tiny dick energy.
Incels and misfits
Pretty much all of Elon's employees hate him. And the majority of America, Canada, Europe hates Muskrat.
This is part of the far right thinking. The only reason Skum gets any is because he's rich, not because he's nice or good looking or well hung or knows how to make love to a woman.
LOL, SweatyBalls. These alpha males are hilarious. 😅
So spread the truth then?
The orange one also gets steamed if you mention the Time magazine cover with Skum behind the Presidential desk.
I like Elon's bitch. I will have to use that term. I have been using orange clown and muskrat. Apparently the orange clown's people read everything on Meidas Touch. I won't subscribe to Truth Social because it would make my stomach turn. So I'll just posting everywhere else about Elon's bitch.

This is far beyond a constitutional crisis. This is an attempt at a complete totalitarian takeover and there is no way to stop it. Damn, I'm terrified.
This is the exactly how they want you to feel. Hang in there. Resist.

Linda, there is an app called “5 calls”. It gives you a script and the phone number to call. I’m also old and weary.
I began fighting for women’s and civil rights when I wasn’t even able to vote yet in 1967.
As luck would have it 18 year olds got the vote the year I turned 21.
I started in 1965 when I was 15 and spent most of my life fighting for social and economic justice, including working for the ACLU as a paralegal and an organizer. I've been calling my rep and my senators, and various other reps and senators as well, for the last two weeks and will continue to call them every day until I see some action on their part that goes beyond kabuki theater at a demonstration.
You are a hero. Please hang in there. There is a lot of support out here.
I don't feel either heroic or brave, but I thank you for your comment. I'm mostly really tired down to my 75-year-old bones. I wish I were 50 years younger and had some money so I could do more. The kids are going to have to save us.
Thank you for the info on 5 calls. I will be using that.
Fighting is NEVER wasted. We have to get in there and fight. I’m not filing a tax return. I’m not giving one more dollar to Elon Musk. My senators and representatives are not DOING ANYTHING about this travesty. None of this rules for thee but not for me shit. We can ALL start with a tax strike.

I love "Elon's bitch".🤣 I'm going to use it
Linda! These are for you:
You are unrepeatable. There is a magic about you that is all your own.
You are sublimely, exactly, how you need to be at this moment.
Also: any of you “old” people…you are NOT going anywhere! You are wise and we need you in this battle. Wisdom is a shield from fear and has a cunning about it that we can put to good use!
Stay strong :-)
Me too,the last 9 years made me age 20 years
There are millions of us out here fighting. If nothing else, we can call our elected officials and keep doing whatever good we can in our own circles of influence. It is very hard though. I hope you find some moments of peace.
You know if it comes down to it, I’m sure we can get a few million of us to show up in D.C. to let these ass-holes know we don’t like what’s currently going on.
I’m ready LFG.
This is how they want us to feel. So far, the courts have really been in out favor and we have lots of people out there paying attention and liking the lawsuits. If you can, support their efforts.
My fear is Musk's defiance of court orders. There is no modern precedent for that. I suppose we're about to find out if in fact we are a nation of laws.
Musk is like a crackhead teenager who has no intention of doing anything he doesn't want to do.
Teenage spoiled brat with raging hormones.
I am too Linda.
Everyone I know is terrified. But somehow we must try to comfort each other and stay sane. If we don't, the monsters win.
Who you gonna call ghost busters? There is no enforcement option other than massive protests. Even that failed in Syria
Syria fell in 3 days. It took years of rebellion, the collapse was fast.
Put Elon in jail is he doesn’t comply! It’s simple!
Who's going to arrest him? The US Marshals? They are controlled by the executive branch. Musk is untouchable and knows it, and is strutting and preening in all his full-blown insane arrogance.
Be aware of the police, many are magas, the future "Brown Shirts"
Yes military generals replaced ,only fox News allowed 24/7 at posts. , CIA , FBI are very republican but dismissing them leaves no enforcement ability
Who’s gonna put him there? The Nazis control the govt. Not so simple.
You say SecDef Pete Hegseth weirdly attacked his former Fox colleague Jennifer Griffin over her report that " he was spending well over $100K of taxpayer money to make “repairs” to his official govt residence". The Secretary off Defense doesn't have an "official govt residence". Only the president and VP do.
he had a full bar and a hot tub installed
... in a fully-equipped S&M room: whips, chains, etc. -- a recruit training facility.
I think they are talking about property owned by the U.S. government, not necessarily designated for any particular purpose.
Aw, Petey was just setting up his special wet bar/love nest...
I wonder how many ignorant MAGAs thought they would be exempt from Trump's massive cruelty and destruction?!
All of them. They will soon be feeling the pain.
We all will; no one is exempt, except the wealthy.
Even the wealthy need cancer clinical trials and public safety. Not to mention a competent response to avian influenza and other infectious disease risks.
You can bet that the wealthy will have everything available to them, that they take away from us.

Musk/Trump, et al, is homophobic , xenophobic, misogynistic, racist - do I really need to go on?
TRUMP + GOP + MAGA = TRAITORS
I've been calling those people the American Nazi Party (ANP) since they refused to impeach Numbnuts the first time in 2019. People said I was overreacting; I said they were in denial and ignorant of history.
The Grifters On Parade (GOP) are lawless liars. I don't see how any court order can be enforced as long as they continue to support a demented old man who is under the thumb of tech billionaires with access to all our personal data and AGI (artificial general intelligence). We are experiencing an attempted global coup; if it succeeds there will be no more countries, just world wide techofeudalism.
I remember when the right was losing their minds over the conspiracy theory du jour in the 90s of the NEW WORLD ORDER. Only crickets and radio silence from legacy media now that we are actually under threat of a real global coup by the name of THE NETWORK. A group of billionaire bros outta Silicon Valley trying to take out all the world’s economies.

Thanks for the crazy but good update Ron. Enjoy the Super Bowl.
As far as Musk, Doggie, MTG, Tom Cotton, Mike Lee, Charlie Kirk, and JD. They can all have a circle jerk with each other. And good luck with that Darrel Issa, what a moron.
Kristi Noem is an absolute moron. I heard her on CNN, she is really dumb.
Are these people a product of marrying the brothers and sisters? Makes sense.
Musk is a cancer that has to be irradiated. I used to always say, why can’t we build our own space ships and get rid of him. He had too much govt clearance as it was. Here’s the byproduct of it.
Thanks again Ron. 💙🇺🇸✊🏽
“Elon is autistic and that scares people. He’s unpredictable and prone to tantrums.”
Elmo Muck IS NOT autistic, not "on the spectrum," and very definitely does not "have Asperger's." As any of we Aspergians know, no Aspergian wants to be seen as an asshole. Elmo, who was born an Asshole, uses this lie to shield himself from the response of most civilized people to an Asshole. His "tantrums" are what an entitled little rich shit does when you tell him he can't do what he knows he's entitled to do. Just like Dilbert.
Stop repeating Elmo's lies. (Also stop buying his tinny toys that only work 75% of the time and can't self-drive for shit, and have twice as many fatal accidents as any other EV on the market. hey really aren't The Official Car For Upper-Middle Class White Morons Who Think They're Makin' The World Better.
Agree totally. My kid is autistic and an ace gamer. Told me about Musk years ago. Not a genius, cheats at games, absolutely not on the spectrum, (just an entitled, tantrum-throwing ego-centric little shit) and not the richest man in the world. Investors own his companies and his cars don't work. He's been trying to suppress the safety reports for months. His value is all in his brand. That is now dropping like a rock. What do people think he's looking for in the US govt records???
Have you got a link to the Aspergers diagnosis? That’s been a rumor for a while.
That's the thing: there isn't one. He's never been officially diagnosed. All the talk of him being autistic comes directly from the man himself. I'm not buying it.
345.1 million people in the US. 77 million voted MAGA. 22%. Those are watching state media (FOX/ NYT/ NBC/ ABC/ CBS/ X/ FB/ META/ TITOK/ INSTAGRAM/ WAPO). Dont forget who is actual majority as they seize our taxpayer dollars.
Tax strike. I’m not filing. Why send money to Elon Musk? The costs of a lawless society they are creating are a tax strike.
