With lawmakers either impotent or supine, the last independent check on Musk and Trump is the Supreme Court. And if the court either rules in their favor or finds its rulings against this misrule ignored, then Americans will only know government by Elon Musk, of Elon Musk, and for Elon Musk.
Elon Musk Has Broken the Constitutional Order
The tech oligarch has unleashed his slow-rolling coup d’état across the federal government, and it’s not clear anything can prevent a total takeover.

This is horrifying with this current situation. 😩
If the bird flu gains the ability to spread from person to person, it could produce the next pandemic. So some flu experts are anxiously tracking changes that could make the virus airborne.

Warren: "He can stand there, smile at you and say, 'anybody can vaccinate their kids who wants to,' but he literally could bankrupt the vaccines manufacturers with the power he will have. And since he's got a financial incentive to do that, we cannot trust him in that job."
