"This is in violation of a presidential executive order. It needs to stop" -- Elon Musk, on Hannity's show, makes clear he has no idea how the American government works by asserting that Trump can use executive orders to unilaterally impound funds appropriated by Congress

Pretty much this.
A fundamental story of the last decade is that a lot of basically incompetent people got fed up by competent people telling them they were wrong, constructed a more welcoming alternative ecosystem of competency cosplayers, and then somehow turned the whole government over to them.

Yeah, I think we can safely just say that the GOP is not the law and order party they pretend to be. Pardoning Jan 6 rioters and now just flat out saying that the judicial branch doesn't matter. Literal fascist dictator vibes.
this is the sort of thing you post when you’re ramping up to defying lawful court orders

Get ready for some #Trumpflation everyone! Can't wait to put some Trump "I Did That" stickers next to stuff like MAGA did on those gas pumps, except this time it'll be actually accurate! Nepo baby billionaires suck!
Trump tariffs go into effect today.

Canada & Mexico - 25%
China - 10%

There will be retaliatory tariffs.

Consumer prices will go up across the board.

The markets will panic.

Fear and financial anxiety will set in.

It's by design.

They're priming us for their big heist.

Trump's attempted coup on January 6th, 2021 was four years ago and I will forever say that what led to it, the event itself, and the consequences have been more damaging to America than what Osama Bin Laden orchestrated on September 11th.

Waiter? I'm ready to order. Yes, I would love a plate of Stalinism, but hold all that Marx stuff. Thanks!
The traitors are easy to spot.

For Maths fans, 2025 is a square.
45² = 45 x 45 = 2025
Also,
9² x 5² = 2025
40² + 20² + 5² = 2025
My favourite?
1³+2³+3³+4³+5³+6³+7³+8³+9³ = 2025

The Democrats monomaniacal adherence to this gerontocratic, seniority hierarchical bullsh*t will continue to be a massive hindrance to any future success. It's just so old and unwieldy and seems to still be playing by an old, out of date playbook. Hot take: Dems need to primary these olds.

This is why I laugh at the #toosoon jokes that are being made about a recently murdered health insurance company's CEO. Yes, different company, but the pure iniquity of our health insurance/care industry is wild. The quest for profits has greatly destroyed healthcare pros ability to do their jobs.

Sexual abusers like Pete Hegseth are central to Trumpism because Trumpism, even more than it's built on a foundation of racism, is built on a foundation of misogyny. This is also why so many famous people exposed as abusers end up moving to the right: it's the only community that welcomes them.

I wonder if all those republicans who rightfully went after Pelosi for being a sitting congressperson and trading stocks are going to be up in arms about this.
BREAKING: Dr. Oz invested in businesses regulated by the agency Trump wants him to lead.

For example, he has a stake in UnitedHealth Group, $UNH, worth as much as $600,000, as well as shares in pharmaceutical firms.

Oz’s investments total tens of millions of dollars.

I think a great example of this is Rufo repackaging racism and homophobia and transphobia within the CRT/concerns for children trojan horse.
The greatest trick the alt-right ever pulled was convincing centrist and center-right pundits and intellectuals that warmed over Schmittian reaction and fascism was instead a novel, intriguing, and exciting emergence in political thought.

Dozens of children died after Robert Kennedy Jr. pushed lies about vaccines.

Now Trump wants to put him in charge of public health.

Adam Kinzinger sums it up. Plus Trump's name was all over Epstein's papers. The GOP went mask off and their morality was only to control white women's reproduction while their law and order was only to brutalize marginalized communities.

The incoming Trump administration is what The West Wing would have been like if it were written and directed by Eric Andre, except, unfortunately it's reality and that's the scary part.

So a couple of unserious billionaires created a meme government agency for the lulz and actual people will definitely suffer the consequences both immediately and in the future. These next four years will be wild and unhinged.
