“We need to have a conversation with DOGE and the administration about exactly what they’ve done here,” said Simpson, a seasoned lawmaker who sits on the powerful Appropriations Committee. “It’s a concern to all of us.” When Idaho GOP reps are saying things like this, you know you fucked up.
As DOGE hammers away at the US government, Republicans stir with quiet objections
While Democrats have been speaking out against President Donald Trump's federal cuts, Republicans are just beginning to stir.

"If there's not a good feedback loop from the people to the government and if you have rule of the bureaucrat, or if the bureaucracy is in charge then what meaning does democracy actually have?" said Musk, an unelected official himself. Remember how no primary for Kamala was the clearest corruption?

It's not corruption if it's legal guys. Not breakin any laws soooo. Give the Saudi's 10b so they'd invest in starlink using the position of the presidency as weight but what's the crime guys?? Where is it written?? Resist this. This is morally bereft.

While we make excuses for the crazy shit he’s currently doing, have we forgotten the years of fraud, lies, felonies and bribes? The pardons of clearly guilty, abusive megalomaniacs whose only redeeming quality was total loyalty to Trump and the cause?

A rare example of Elon learning from Trump. This is campaign language, Politispeak (www.salina.com/story/opinio...).

Is this a rekindling of Elon and Trump or simply Elon learning something new for the first time in recent memory? Is this growth? #godspeed

Trump and Elon are begging for serious oppositional action. Do NOT let real opposition, should it arise, be the scapegoat they will undoubtedly use to justify further extreme actions. When a state threatens to secede and they call martial law, organize.

Republicans have been calling foul on "big government" for years, take power, form the single most centralized federal state in modern US history, and "remind" you that we can't trust government. Who's shocked that the party of "everything is fire" was found to have matches in their car?
Republicans can't and shouldn't govern.

I also have to ask, and really if any of you have plausible answers, I am all ears, but where else exactly does MAGA want all this federal money to go? They don't support funding education, infrastructure, medicare, charities, public transportation, health care, the arts...where is it gonna go Elon?

So, a major check on presidential power is congressional power over spending allocation, right? Congress owns the money and how to spend it. (Article 1, section 8). If I were a fascist, how would I circumvent this? Ah! A sovereign wealth fund! We'll have our OWN money, check removed! Balance? None.

“Palestinians should leave…” he says. I’m briefly reminded of the voters who protested Kamala’s here but ultimately Trump is once again the worlds fool, and the US people with him.
