During his crusade to obliterate federal spending disliked by Trump/Project 2025, why didn't Elon just defund all the District Courts and sell off their buildings. Any challenge of a Trump policy or directive should just go directly to #SCOTUS so they can save time and rule for him right away

Ditto for my fellow American Jews, who have been repeatedly denounced and mocked by Trump for "disloyalty" to America for criticizing Israel's genocide in Gaza and for daring to not vote for Trump. And watch as his administration has weaponized antisemitism to foster repression and silence dissent

"Best" what? Best at corruption for personal gain? Best at extrajudicial murder of fishermen? Best at sending U.S. troops to invade American cities? Best at filling his administration jobs with groveling underlings? Best at terrorizing immigrant communities? Best at spouting lies about everything?

Imagine slandering anyone as “low IQ” when you put Pete Hegseth and Kristi Noem in high profile roles in your administration. Yep, can’t hide his instinctive racism

Important note on Northern Ireland. The Good Friday Agreement provides a possible roadmap, on arms reductions - but also because of the direct participation of the IRA. Similar story with South Africa. Apartheid could only be ended with the direct role of the ANC. Palestinians have been shut out
