I don't believe anything lefties are saying after they literally spent all their campaign money on celebrities.

And their phony media lost what little credibility they had left trying to get Trump

Nothing worse than an old immature liberal. Still acting like a teenager who lost something. Your team lost. Time to accept it and get a life.

Says the party who consistently makes allegations about other members' personal life rather than address the issues raised by the topic.

You must be using that alternative definition of "coup de tat", where the elected person does what he has been elected to do.  🤦‍♂️

Who elected Elon Musk? He has no authority to access US Government data.

No one is disputing there is waste going on in the government. What IS unacceptable is going about this using a jackhammer to perform what COULD be accomplished using sensible scrutiny. What ALSO is unacceptable is letting these DOGE creeps wield said jackhammer!

I was a database administrator at a US Naval Hospital for which I was required to go through a background check to obtain a secret clearance. At lease ONE of those creeps wouldn't be able to get such a clearance - it's been reported he was a traitor to a company he worked for by leaking sensitive information to a competitor. Now those same creeps have access to ALL our banking information/social security numbers.

People are going to die because they won't receive life-saving medicine due to heartless ham-handed DOGE destruction of USAID.

This is NOT how an honest, caring government acts. This is NOT how Christians behave (which this new government is claiming to be). This is textbook fascism 101.

And before you buffoons start arguing that I don't know what fascism is, well here ya go:

Fascism is a far-right form of government where most of the country's power is held by one ruler or a small group, under one party.

Just because a judge rules, or a legal “scholar” on CNN claims something is unconstitutional, does not make it so.

Typical leftist tactic.  Call something a lie over and over, and the brainwashed masses just might believe it.  That little trick won't work too well any more.  People are wising up.  That's why Trump was elected.  And he's keeping his promises.  No more business as usual.

 

Fortunately, it's just a matter of time before all the corruption, waste, fraud and abuse is uncovered.  And at this point, there's not much the Deep State can do about it.  Sure, the left can file lawsuits, and politicized lower level federal judges can issue crazy orders and attempt nationwide injunctions.  That's won't work.  Trump has excellent legal advice, and those people know how things work.  If I had to guess, I'd say they just ignore the lower court injunction.  Easy enough.  I won't go into why the courts don't really have much power here.  

 

Anyway, wait and see.  If I'm wrong and Musk has been lying, I'll admit it.  Otherwise, I'm willing to sit back, relax, and watch the entertainment .  This isn't the "crisis" the left would make it out to be.  The country has been through this before.

The Constitution gives the President the power to veto laws. That is his one constitutionally permitted action to stop a law from taking effect. But once those laws are passed then he is obliged to faithfully uphold them. That's why it's called the Executive branch. It's supposed to carry out the laws.

Really, those making the most noise since Jan 20th are like babies whose mummies took away their rattles.
Ya'll did this from 2016 until 2021, and now your whinging and crying again - for 4 more years?  Gawd!  I sort of have pity on those of you who melt down into the pool of goo and rant and rave.  Trump didn't throw you all in concentration camps his first term and he's not going to throw you into concentration camps his second term either.  Ya'll are suppose to be adults.  Lord, act like it.  This hyperbolic over-reactions to a second Trump term (and everything to do with Trump and conservatism in general) is exactly what has turned off those voters in the center and left-of-center. Every rational voter is simply tired of the far-Left's histrionics and hysterics. It's old, give it a rest.

You think the rant you just indulged in here isn't a form of whining? And devoid of any content about actual issues.

Actual, the typical tactic on display here is to claim that evidence that demonstrates an assertion is a lie is the same as simply calling it a lie. But, in fact, it's you and others like you who call simply engage in name calling without marshalling evidence. Just another case of right wing irony.

“Evidence” in the form of magazine articles.

The left wing socialists are crying in their beer as Musk tries to clean up the mess that old sleepy Joe produced. Musk is a smart man and the socialists realize that he will put a stop to their wanton mass waste of the good taxpayers money. The socialists are in a tizzy wondering who to hate more, Trump or Musk.

 

My biggest question is which of the lefties just hate Trump so bad they'll do anything to damage him, regardless of how much it hurts the USA and the American people, and which of them are so balls deep in the corruption that they can't afford to have it come out lest they lose their livelihood and maybe even end up in prison.  

 

And in a nod to Kamala, the Venn diagram where those 2 groups intersect.  I'll betcha that's a big overlap.

His dept exposing fraud, waste and corruption ends on July 4th 2026. Liberals are hysterical over his success so far, they love millions being spent on LGBT basket weaving in Peru, lesbian comics for Liberia or drag Queens brainwashing kids in Ireland. Not exactly that but near enough.

Now I see what you are referring to. So the question is why is what Musk up to part of a coup d'etat. I would call it rather what it is characterized in another topic as an autogolpe. Someone gains power legitimately but then takes it upon themselves to trample on the laws in such a way as to benefit themselves and endanger the rule of law and democracy.. Someone like Viktor Orban in Hungary. Or Vladimir Putin in Russia. That seems to be the model that Trump is pursuing. Actually J.D. Vance's former boss, and the guy who put up the big buck to get him elected to the Senate, espouses that. That would be Peter Thiel.

What laws are being trampled?

Don't care.

 

If they can cut the fraud and waste, go for it.

 

Who complains that the government doesn't spend enough?
