The Government’s Computing Experts Say They Are Terrified | Four IT professionals lay out just how destructive Elon Musk’s incursion into the U.S. government could be.

They are the ones in fucking power!
-
As you pointed out, they attempted to subpoena Musk and the republicans voted it down. They’ve also introduced articles of impeachment, which they successfully put through last time only to have senate republicans refuse to convict on the basis that trump was no longer president.

I can say for certain that they dont. At least not all of the firearms. And "or else"? Really? Are you intending that to read as a threat, or merely a warning about said dumbfucks?
Because that sort of "threat" is a nice indicator of the type of person that shouldn't have access to firearms.

What's the point of rules if the president can just ignore them? Were they just counting on the president not being the sort of person who would break the rules? That seems like a bad plan.

No, not a threat at all. I would just think it would be worrisome if they did have them all

Us gun people*
Government taken over by foreign billionaire - I sleep
Children frolicking about at school - raaaaaaage

On the bright side, it tells you everything you need to know about these people.

For real. People don't understand how powerful targeted propaganda is. A lot of the most radical and armed in the US were intentionally targeted so now all of their media, friends, friends media are all saying the same thing and telling them everything else is a lie.
This story for example is, on the right, just the Democrats and deep state trying to Elon now that he is exposing REAL corruption.
We are arguing different facts, arguably because so much of media is just "trusted sources" instead of anything verifiable anymore
-
I agree completely. It’s clear we’re in need of much stronger constitutional safeguards.

I mean what they can do I've said. What I expect is a lot more damage from the Trump administration. Democrats are generally on board with reigning the administration in and/or stopping it, depending on what happens.
Unfortunately the majority for most things sit with Republicans, so it will be slow getting them to respond to Trump. I expect a few Republicans will chime in from time to time, might help stop a few things. Of course Congress lacks the resources to enforce things, so it'll be interesting to see what happens there.
Eventually Trump is going to go too far. I would argue he already has, but specifically he's going to go too far for Republicans. The speaker, Johnson, is the one to watch. I think McConnell still has some sway, but he's also clearly very ill physically. Actually Republicans that are usually quiet are probably the ones to watch first.

Millions are probably insufficient.
