This is how I would respond to the email Musk has had sent to government employees (not legal advice).

1. Refused to violate the law.
2. Refused to violate the Constitution.
3. Refused to bow or scrape.
4. Refused to bend a knee.
5. Deleted this stupid email.

2. I didn’t do a Nazi Salute
3. I didn’t wield a chainsaw while high on drugs
4. I didn’t get a public tweet that I need to take care of my child’s medical needs
5. I didn’t let my kid wipe a booger on the resolute desk (I would have let the kid wipe the booger on POTUS)

If you look at all the firings across the government over the last two weeks it's frequently been taken as a given that any black or woman official or officer is either a DEI hire or supports DEI and is summarily fired on that basis. Seems like the same model here.
Side note. There are eight members of the joint chiefs. the chair is black. the CNO (navy) is a woman. the other six are white guys. chair and the cno got fired tonight.

Better not call it a “vaccine” or it might not get approved. Maybe market it as a recreational drug.

I feel so sick. Enough with the lies, enough with the games. They know exactly what they're doing.

This is a neo-Nazi movement. Proudly so. The only reason they've kept it coded up until now was to take advantage of those who didn't want to believe it.
