This is an Executive Order issued from the White House, attacking a single specific law firm, openly retaliating against them for perceived slights against Trump in 2016, and rewriting public history with lies.

Banana republic dictator shit.

Who is next?

Reporters covering the CFPB may want to investigate this to see if it’s true and, if so, if it is widespread/systemic.

Trump absolutely does not have a 53% approval rating. It is 44% and falling.

The Trump admin is enacting the Project 2025 plan to degrade the integrity of elections.

We will no longer be able to trust CISA and other agencies that protect our election infrastructure and defend it against outside interference.

This is the new Executive Order that eliminates the very concept of independent regulatory agencies.

It gives the President direct control over the decisions of every Congressionally-created regulatory body across the U.S. government. Including FEC.

Read it all.

This reminds me of a thread I wrote 5 years ago

Interesting which things have changed and which things have remained the same

Elon Musk’s army of 20-something techbros now has access to Medicare and Medicaid Services.

Source claims they “hadn’t yet been given access to databases that include identifiable personal health information.”

Even if that’s true, it’s only a matter of time.

Why are news outlets giving these people titles like “DOGE Official?”

Aren’t they like 20-something college students doing a side hustle for Elon Musk?

DOGE is not a company. It is not a government entity, agency, or department. They are not “officials” for anything.

Why are we legitimizing them?

Trump and Musk have created an extralegal/extrajudicial process they can use to financially punish groups who oppose them.

We have to assume there is no oversight, and courts can’t stop what they don’t know about.

In Russia’s economy, Putin picks the winners.

States contract with groups like this to deliver services like Medicaid, child care, and foster care to families.

Elon Musk is teaming up with Mike Flynn to spread lies and smear them as money launderers to cut off their funding.

One of the recipients here is Washington State University.

WSJ, a few days before the election:

“Elon Musk … has been in regular contact with Russian President Vladimir Putin since late 2022.”

In 2021, Biden’s EO 14060 created a Council on Transnational Organized Crime, to fight the criminal networks behind human trafficking, drug & arms trafficking, money laundering, cybercrimes & scams:

When you call lawfully-convicted seditionists, “hostages,” it means something.

It means you view the US government as an illegitimate, hostile force.

Reporters should inform the public that MAGA is promoting the ideas of terrorists, like Ted Kaczynski & Tim McVeigh.
