The incredibly corrupt, lawless, & unconstitutional nature of the entire DOGE enterprise requires Elon Musk and lots of other people to spend the rest of their lives in jail.
The Wisconsin component of the analysis here is revealing. Evidence is consistent with DOGE strategically delaying contract terminations in WI until after the 2025 state Supreme Court elections to mitigate electoral risk.

We’re not just debating immigration policy: the danger of an expanded ICE
A federal judge from the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California passed an order that temporarily halts ICE raids in Los Angeles. In her order, she cites grave constitutional violations in these arrests, arguing that they have been conducted indiscriminately and without reasonable suspicion of illegality or criminal activity. The Trump administration is not just cracking down on border control, but transforming ICE from an immigration enforcement agency into a force, larger than the FBI, less accountable, and increasingly untethered from democratic norms. With masked agents and warrantless raids, ICE’s evolution raises urgent questions about civil liberties, due process, and the future of American law enforcement.
