Maybe he has some war thunder arguments to settle...

Imagine if literally anyone else did this.

There is a reason he suddenly started bringing his little human shield with him everywhere. Suddenly he has a good relationship with his kid right after Trump got shot. I'm sure just a coincidence.

It’s not confusing at all, many of us agree. But who enforces that? The Justice Dept, led by Trump’s other stooge Pam Bondi.

22%.

Because the people who objected to them not having the clearance to view the data were put on leave.

[Musk's] comments come after the administration placed two top security chiefs at USAID on leave after they refused to turn over classified material in restricted areas to Musk’s government-inspection teams, a current and a former U.S. official told The Associated Press on Sunday

Look, War Thunder isn't going to develop itself.

These systems are typically air-gapped so to be able to acquire it is a particularly bad fuck-up.

That being said information from unclassed systems can become classified when put in a single place/file for easy consumption.

Either way someone really, REALLY fucked up here.

That's why I'm going to my states senate office and raising hell. You should too. Monday Feb 17th. Be the change my friend

Because those who should be doing that are complicit, that's how.

hes using him as a human shield, against crticism, and as a bullet"proof" armor.

Well you see, legally, it's complicated.

The only people who can go after him...work for Trump.

The people who can go after Trump are Congress. A Congress that is controlled by the party that Trump is the head of, and that head is attached directly to its ass, with absolutely no spine in between. A truly majestic creature, really.

The people who can stop him on the meantime are the courts. Which he packed with loyalists. Not just the supreme court but also many lower federal courts as well.

That's thanks to the duodenum of the congress-beast, Mitch McConnel, who held up so many federal judge appointments during Obama's last years in office because it was "too close to an election". But then shoved in a new judge when RBG died two months before the 2020 election before she was even cold.

This is what most sane countries would call a "constitutional crisis".

Their Shock Doctrine approach (thank you Naomi Klein) has been incredibly successful. Reading about history in my youth, I now understand why evil prevailed then as it is now. I was looking back at times of immense tyranny and thinking "why didn't everyone just rise up against them!?" Some are fully onboard, others partially, but many are detached, struggling to survive. The rest of us do what we can, when we can, but disjointed and unorganized.

It's a whole lot of "please will somebody DO something!", but the modern Democrats are not an opposition party, ever. The news media is complicit as well. There are a handful of judges and attorneys who are doing their damndest, but this is no longer a country of laws (for the rich and powerful).

The country is geographically massive and your average citizen is both poor and uneducated, both politically and otherwise, by Western standards. Now that large swaths of worker's livelihoods are being devastated they may have more time on their hands.

I won't hold my breath for "Occupy Washington", but when the next movement comes it will be met with intense and violent opposition. Hopefully a silver lining may be a wake up call, far too late.

I shudder to think of what comes next as it has been festering and fomenting within this country my entire lifetime. The sophisticated propaganda machine and socioeconomic warfare has kept our citizens dumb, divided, and despondent, I pray something beneficial rises from the ashes.

There is no single answer to your question. My aim was to provide a contemporaneous snapshot of what I am experiencing. As I have been observing our descent into flagrant fascism, and telling anyone who would listen, for the better part of a century. And I hate it with every fiber of my being.

Americans are resisting, for instance lot's of people are quitting their jobs, I've heard about at least 3.

Sarcasm aside, I congratulate the people who refuse to aid Trump, and actually do resist. But it just doesn't seem to be a lot.
Maybe it's too early, but I sure hope that some real resistance will emerge, and resist and prevent MAGA in their attempt to destroy democracy completely.

Can we start a rumor that Musk wants to shut down Boeing? He won't last a month.
