The mass firings and resignations of federal civil service workers in a multitude of government agencies is an “alarm bell in the night”!
It undermines the ability of the federal government to deal with the multitude of domestic and national security issues that it needs to address on a daily basis.
The fact that Donald Trump and his administration thinks winnowing down the number of federal employees is acceptable, is a danger sign for future crises that are bound to arise over time.
With a nation of nearly 340 million people and growing, there is a need for more and effective government employees in all sectors, in order to preserve, protect and defend the United States internally and in relations with all other nations, including allies and adversaries!
New York Times is reporting that Musk now has access to the Treasury payment system.
That’s not good. He has access to Social Security payments, Medicare benefits, etc.
Things are spiraling downhill and out of control rapidly, and the Republican-controlled Congress is doing nothing to stop it (while Democrats have essentially no levers of power and the media keeps “normalizing” this totally abnormal situation). Bottom line: we really needed to win the November 2024 election…and we didn’t. As a direct result, now we’re in deep trouble.
Musk gaining access to the Treasury payment system is wildly unacceptable and illegal.
The world’s richest man may now have access to the confidential personal information of every taxpayer in the United States.
Musk wants to FORCE companies to advertise on X.

Musk is Trump’s co-dictator.
We need to have a coup or something. Anything to get Trump and Elon out of there.
