Bill Browder to Bartiromo: "This is like war reparations from Ukraine, who's the victim. Russia should be handing over their natural resources for all the money we've spent, not Ukraine. Ukraine needs to rebuild, they need to defend themselves. To punish Ukraine is a highly unsympathetic position."

I can think of at least eight federal laws that have been broken by Musk and his goons over the last few days, and at least two provisions of the U.S. Constitution.
They must be stopped.

Don't let Trump spin you, he backed down on the Mexican tariffs when the market dropped out, GOP electeds finding a backbone to complain, and the WSJ calling it the "dumbest trade war in history".
Trump blinked and embarrassed himself plain and simple.

I asked Elon’s Grok 2 the question of whether and how you could destroy the country through insane trade wars and hijacking Treasury’s payment system.
And I must say, what I got back seems to be a fairly good analysis.

One of the first bills introduced in the North Carolina state legislature this year is a proposal by a handful of far-right gun crazies to exempt shooting ranges from any and all city/county rules and ordinances.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.
Opportunities are everywhere.
Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Because they are evil, we must stand up to them.
But because they are also stupid, we needn’t be afraid to.
