Now that he's been ordered to destroy any copies, Musk can't use the data in public. If he tries to use it now, he outs himself as in contempt of court. If he repeats it enough, could be jailed.

I agree with you but it does demoralize senators to be denigrated on social media. Schumer gets it a lot, some of it unfair. That's why I tried to stick up for him. But I understand your urgency. Maybe there's another way to persuade him to cede some power.

Maybe blue states can pass laws that constrain Trump's or Musk's actions within that state. Laws against the same crimes as the federal laws that Bondi won't enforce. Or a law against selective prosecution of citizens within the state. Then when Trump flouts the law (as he will) then charge him.

But... It seems like when Musk uncovers waste in a program within an agency, he trashes the whole agency, not just the program.?

Thank you for slowing things down. When I see the great citizen protests about USAID & Musk's illegal actions, I know that those protesting citizens would not have the FOCUS to do it if you weren't slowing down the procession of dangerous / unqualified hires.
And this prepares for budget talks.

If Trump takes revenge, by firing these thousands of FBI agents who were just doing their jobs (none of them volunteered to investigate January 6th), our country will be sitting ducks for terrorists until new agents can be trained, more than a year.

Who is this person who repeats "This is not normal" to everything Trump does? No one serious.
No one said the tariffs are "not normal".
You're creating a strawman to knock down.
Back when you wrote this, people said that nominating Gaetz, RK jr & Hegseth was not normal. Are you saying it was?
