Just Stop

@Chesschick01 She clearly hit him. Keep living in denial. You can see him get hit with the bumper.

Second view zoomed in.

1.) she is ordered out of her car 2.) she refuses 3.) she backs up 4.) she drives forward into an ice agent 5.) ice agent pulls out gun only when she starts moving forward INTO HIS BODY 6.) self defense 7.) case closed

@HelenTh81487793 @KristinaDilore1 @delgadostowe @CmputrBlu @mjfree What about my comment was ridiculous? It’s facts and I see it a lot actually.

@iknowmytruth2 @KristinaDilore1 @delgadostowe @CmputrBlu @mjfree It was to point out how ridiculous your comment was…….nothing else…..

BREAKING: LOW INCOME AMERICANS WILL NOT GET DOGE STIMULUS CHECKS…THEY WILL ONLY GO TO HIGH INCOME AMERICANS. PRESIDENT MUSK-TRUMP HOODWINKED THE FUCK OUT OUR maga.

@HelenTh81487793 @KristinaDilore1 @delgadostowe @CmputrBlu @mjfree Just like a Democrat asking for handouts.

@iknowmytruth2 @KristinaDilore1 @delgadostowe @CmputrBlu @mjfree Would you like to pay the “minmal amount” for me, I’ll owe this year??? And since you consider it such a “minimal amount”…… how about reimbusing me for the last several decades????

@KristinaDilore1 @delgadostowe @CmputrBlu @mjfree Might want to educate yourself. A lot of people will not work full time because they get government assistance which usually means they make less than what is required to pay taxes AND if they did it is a minimal amount they paid in taxes.

@delgadostowe @CmputrBlu @mjfree Your the dumbfuck if a person works at a McDonald’s and federal was taken out they paid taxes , your a moron

@DonnaShaw10 @DefiantLs @DeplorableMe38 The top one blames Trump after a month in office and the lower one gives Biden an excuse 7 months after Biden was in office. Shows his biased.

@DefiantLs @DeplorableMe38 Why would it be wrong to blame Biden? Trump has only been in office for a month. Sure Biden wasn’t really capable of making top level decisions, but we have to put a name on the bureaucratic mess and Biden’s it.

Ed is single handedly supplying me with months worth of memes.

@LongTimeHistory Her wife is the suspect. How about an apology at this time?

Trump riled up his MAGA cult against California fire captain calling her "DEI hire" — now she's been viciously murdered in her own home. Fire Captain Rebecca Marodi was found with multiple stab wounds that police say indicates a desperate fight for survival. She served 30 years with California Fire — including leading the fight against recent Los Angeles fires that MAGA Republicans scapegoat women firefighters for. Fire Captain Rebecca Marodi was planning to retire later this year. #DemVoice1 #wtpBLUE #DemsUnited

@RepSwalwell It looks like a lot of flights crash every year.

Since 2009, how many American airliners crashed before Trump came into office? ZERO. When does Trump start taking responsibility for the next plane crash?

@josettecaruso @PressSec @elonmusk No issues when Clinton did it?

Another nearly 10,000 US government workers have been fired as Elon Musk ramps up the cost-cutting initiative from his newly-minted Department of Government Efficiency under President Donald Trump. On Friday local time, 9,500 civil servants got the chop, on top of the 75,000 who had already left after the take-it-or-leave-it buyout offers which expired on Wednesday, prompting the latest intense round of sackings. At time of writing, roughly three per cent of America’s 2.3 million strong civil servant workforce has been slashed under Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency, abbreviated to DOGE. The roughly 10,000 unemployed workers come from a range of departments, from veteran affairs all the way to nuclear security. But one thing they do have in common is that most of them were still on probation, meaning they had less job protections in place than others. About 220,000 federal workers had less than one year of experience as of March 2024, according to the most recently publicly available data from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM). Critics have previously called out President Trump giving Mr Musk near “unrivalled” power to reduce and even shut down government departments as he sees fit. “I think we do need to delete entire agencies as opposed to leave a lot of them behind,” Mr Musk said on Thursday. “If we don’t remove the roots of the weed, then it’s easy for the weed to grow back.”Sacked workers have been left fuming from the ordeal. Nick Gioia served in the army for 17 years before joining the USDA’s Economic Research Service in December. He’s one of the probationary workers to be fired on Thursday. “I’ve done a lot for my country and as a veteran who served his country, I feel like I’ve been betrayed by my country.” “What’s frustrating is that this administration has portrayed people like myself as the enemy to the American people,” Air Force veteran Shane Poole told USA Today. “We are portrayed as lazy, incompetent, low productivity. “It’s hurtful to see people cheering this on.”President Trump signed an executive order on Tuesday telling federal agencies to prepare for a “large-scale reductions in force”. At first, the DOGE team planned to make the reductions voluntary with the take-it-or-leave-it offers, which would see those who signed up paid until September 30 if they resigned. But not enough people signed up the scheme. Then, earlier this week Mr Trump announced that government workers would be required to work in the office full-time, causing many staffers to question whether this was a tactic to make more people quit. The DOGE team began targeting probationary workers afterwards. The OPM warned agencies earlier this week that probationary employees would be fired unless they were high performers. Government departments are expected to be gutted in coming weeks, raising concern about essential services. Just a month after the devastating Los Angeles wildfires, federal programs have paused hiring seasonal firefighters and stopped implementing preventive measures like removing dead wood from forests. Reports also indicate that the Internal Revenue Service will lay off thousands of probationary workers despite being in the middle of the USA’s tax season.

To all of the Democrats who are planning to protest this week, here’s an explanation on DOGE, from your party’s own beloved leaders!

@stoppfeenin Who’s to blame for all the other crashes that happen every year?

This marks the 8th plane crash since Trump took office— his administration just fired multiple FAA workers. Let’s not ignore the pattern: 1/29 – Washington, D.C. 1/31 – Pennsylvania 2/5 – Washington 2/6 – Alaska 2/10 – Arizona 2/12 – California 2/16 – Georgia 2/17 – Toronto

@itsashleyb817 @bigmoodMF @CProthro1978 @stoppfeenin These are the crashes for the last 4 years.

@bigmoodMF @CProthro1978 @stoppfeenin His data is literally wrong…so was mine it was 54 in a year.

@Maverick31224 @baddestopinion @PeteButtigieg I worked in the banking industry for years did reports on it. I called the CFPB one time to get clarification on a loan I was working and they said they can’t give legal advice which I reminded them I’m just asking to make sure I was in compliance and they would not tell me.

@iknowmytruth2 @baddestopinion @PeteButtigieg Holy shit are you not as educated on this as you think.

Project 2025 was unpopular because of things like the plan for Trump to shut down the CFPB, which helps you get your money back if a bank cheats you.

@Bakari_Sellers @elonmusk Sounds like political targeting just like you did to Trump. Hence why the Dems lost and is about to get a lot worse. The best disinfectant is sunlight and that’s what this country needs.

I’d like an audit of all @elonmusk government contracts. I’d like to see if they are in compliance, if they’ve met their goals, how much was overhead etc… These are our tax dollars. Starlink, Tesla, SpaceX, etc. We need transparency. Let’s root out government waste.

@soulconnect4 @SenAdamSchiff He lied about the same shot his first term. Schiff is a snake.

@SenAdamSchiff I believe you. I just don't think that Republicans care. And these Trump supporters on X have bought into the mantra that you should be in prison. I disagree with them, but that's how it is. We need a way to break through, but I have no answers for you. Nothing gets through. Sad.

Under oath, Kash Patel said he was unaware of plans to dismiss FBI agents before he was confirmed. Today, whistleblowers revealed Patel was reportedly directing those dismissals. Covertly. Yet another reason he must be rejected.

@SenAdamSchiff Must be the same whistle blower that told you all the damning stuff you had on Trump his first term which turned out that YOU lied.

@Maverick31224 @baddestopinion @PeteButtigieg That’s my point, we don’t need the CFPB which is nothing more than a money grab for the government to take from businesses when it was the government who relaxed the regulation. The CFPB would not have prevented the crash because it was allowed by the government at that time.

@iknowmytruth2 @baddestopinion @PeteButtigieg So…republicans? Also, it’s a gross simplification if you think that was the only contributor. Banks also made incredibly risky fiscal decisions on top of the no doc loans. They were able to do so because of Bush era deregulation.

@CleoLoughlin @baddestopinion @PeteButtigieg The laws were stated income which did not come from the banks. Blame the realtors, appraisers, and straw buyers who did the frauds. CFPB is a joke who fines banks to fund the CFPB.

@baddestopinion @PeteButtigieg If "market forces" had provided safeguards, we wouldn't have had to create this agency!

@Maverick31224 @baddestopinion @PeteButtigieg Because a president allowed consumers to do stated income vs having to prove your income. Don’t blame banks but the people who allowed that rule.

@baddestopinion @PeteButtigieg The last time banks were operating with their own oversight we had the mortgage crisis and a global depression.

@BruceBa21417771 @baddestopinion @PeteButtigieg You sound like a talking Democrat puppet. 🤣

@baddestopinion @PeteButtigieg Oh don't you worry - some farcical Republican-backed private organization will take up the reins and make those Republicans richer and the consumers poorer.

@ethanard @robbiehendricks @elonmusk The issue we have is when our government uses these programs to push their agendas or over regulate companies out of business. Sometimes we need to question the laws on the books to make sure we are following them the way they were meant to be followed. We need this bad.

Since you seem to be asking a sincere question, I'll give a sincere answer. Part of it, to be sure, is partisan preference ("rage", as you put it). Democratic voters, compared to Republican voters, tend to have a significantly more favorable view of, say, government funding of medical research, or government funding of medical aid to impoverished communities in Africa. Though I'd say voters "in the middle" tend to have somewhat conservative views on that, which is why these are good soft targets. But the deeper concern that many Democrats have is that something much bigger is going on. In 1932, FDR made enormous changes to the nature of American society. He instituted social security over the strenuous objections of republicans, who feared (correctly) that it would be very difficult to unwind. Some of his techniques (e.g., threats to pack the court) were very rough justice, but it must be noted that he had the support of 71% of congress (and by definition, the vast majority of voters), as opposed to 51%. These were hardball threats *within* the bounds of our constitutional system. The Democratic concern is not so much that he will do things that we don't like--of course he will. Elections have consequences. It's not even a concern that he will do things which are broadly popular and thus hard to unwind (like social security, medicare or Obamacare), or that he will do such a good job that Vance is elected just as GHWB followed Reagan. If that happens, so be it. The major concern is that there will not be any more elections, that the current government will do unpopular things, but simply refuse to leave because they have unfettered control of the military and intelligence operations. I for one am not persuaded that Trump will leave voluntarily in 4 years, nor do I think he will leave involuntarily. There is a very real chance that Trump will be "president" for the rest of his life, and perhaps then Barron (or Elon) will be president for the remainder of *my* life. Trump has several uncommon insights about the nature of power, the most important of which is: if you achieve a certain level of power, you do not have to relinquish it. He has stated that he never should have left in 2020. Putin had term limits, until he abolished them. Xi had term limits, until he abolished them. Mao was removed from power by the party, but he refused to leave. Erdogan is going nowhere. Orban is going nowhere. Kim Jong-un is going nowhere, nor did his father or grandfather. Hitler was elected to a limited role by a minority of the population, but quickly overthrew the remaining parts of the government, installing himself as Fuhrer with unlimited powers. Caesar was just a man, who was forbidden by law to cross the Rubicon, until he did it because LOL, and thus ended the Roman Republic. Caesar did not live forever, but the Republic was dead forever. Every other American president has felt compelled to follow the law, although I acknowledge that FDR and Lincoln pushed things pretty far. Trump is, after all, a convicted felon who scorned the notion that any court of law could tell him what to do. I understand that many Republicans agreed with his decision to defy the courts, but that only makes democrats more concerned, not less. Of course I do not expect to persuade any Republicans about this--I presume that most Trump voters either think this is alarmist TDS, or else relish the prospect. Bringing it back to the immediate matter at hand, there are ways to reduce spending which are consistent with the U.S. constitution. Under our constitutional system, only Congress is able to set spending priorities, and only congress is allowed to create or abolish agencies like the CFPB, the USAID, or the Department of Education. The president's only role is to sign or veto the bills, and then ensure that the laws are faithfully executed. It would be perfectly legal for Congress to pass laws accomplishing what Musk and Trump intend to do, and in fact Trump has such unfettered control over his party that he could easily strong-arm them into doing so. Mike Johnson only has a 3-vote majority in the house, but who would dare vote against Trump on anything right now? Which raises the question: why aren't they taking that route? Why haven't they passed the DOGE authorization act, or even contemplated such? One possible interpretation is that the lawlessness is the point. If you are able to unilaterally usurp congressional authority over an unpopular program like USAID, you may be able to unilaterally detain U.S. citizens and place them into camps, or cancel elections due to a "national emergency", or throw out ballots you don't like, etc. Don't get me started on invading Greenland, or Gaza, or Panama, or Canada. Canada! Not only our closest ally, but possibly the closest ally any nation has ever had in human history. This is already way too long, but I would also add that Musk and AI raise the stakes quite a bit. While this is not yet consensus, there is zero doubt in my mind that AI is the most powerful thing that humanity has ever invented. The fact that Trump's strongest ally (and arguably, the shadow president) is also in the running to control AI (inasmuch as it can be controlled, which I doubt), is pretty concerning. China became a technological police state with 2000-era technology. It would be incredibly easy to have total 1984-style surveillance of the entire U.S. population with a few hundred billion dollars worth of investment in the right AI tools even using today's technology, let alone the 2027 technology. I fear that we are all frogs with a scorpion on our back, in water that is rapidly coming to a boil. I hope this helps to address your sincere question. And needless to say, I hope I'm wrong about all of this.

@SenWarren You’re the cause of this corruption with you being a career politician which is why you’re so worried. The best disinfectant is sunshine.

Elon Musk’s companies have a lot riding on government contracts and enforcement actions. Why in the world would we trust him to police his own conflicts of interest?
