It is urgent to realize that the case in front of Boasberg is a golden strategic opportunity. Legally, and I bet politically. Their legal position is terrible, the underlying facts look worse every day, and their attacks on the judge are batshit.

Don't shrink from this fight, embrace it.

When Trump was sworn in, Elon Musk's corporations were under more than 32 investigations conducted by at least 11 federal agencies.

Most of the cases are now closed or likely to be closed soon, and the federal agencies are being defanged by DOGE.

Funny how that works, huh?

There appear to be at least three separately operating heel factions breaking things within the government in wholly different ways right now. There's the Miller-headed immigration one, the DOGE/Elon one, and a Project 2025 OMB one. This dynamic hasn't showed up in mainstream reporting at all.
