Summary
Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, has boldly declared a war on the federal government, aggressively reshaping public discourse and challenging established authority.
Using a ‘special government employee’ role via an executive order, Musk established DOGE to cut $500 billion in annual spending, strictly bypassing oversight.
Musk targeted USAID, declaring it as criminal while proposing its shutdown, and appointed young, inexperienced aides and former Tesla staff to federal positions.
These maneuvers have sparked partisan debates, raised conflict-of-interest concerns, and underscored a dramatic shift in federal power dynamics in a nation-wide upheaval.

What fucking debate needs to happen? This country is literally being handed to an unelected oligarch who’s dismantling and robbing it blind, and it’s up for partisan debate? What fucking lunacy. It deserves to fall, quite frankly.
When was the last time the country was not in the hands of oligarchs?
Flood ICE with reports of an immigrant taking over the government.
Hopefully more articles like this come out so Trump gets rid of him because his ego can’t handle it.
Musk should be arrested.
All immigrants are equal, but some are more equal than others. And ICE ignores those ones.
He’d only see them if they were on Fox News though
Yea! And maybe I’ll shit a rainbow and fart gold coins!
I… think I hope so?
I can’t decide if that’s the case, my first thought as well, or if he’d rage and accelerate.
Trump only consumes media Musk approves
Well yeah. He’ll be dealt with the same way Trump likes to deal with other “very bad men”. In his eyes, anyone that wrongs him is committing treason to the highest degree.
What a scandal this is, it should have a name like Elon gate, this could really stretch on for a long time! Ok I’m done I’ll see myself out.
Elongate is quite apt: because he will be causing fuckery and misery for a very long time before something is done about him.
Well that leaves Trump’s name out of the focus and he’s just as much to blame. Can’t let him blame Elon and dodge responsibility ( he will, of course)
Can’t let him blame Elon and
dodgeDOGE responsibility
You really have to wonder what Putin and Russia’s role in all of this has been.
Because it feels like us straining our relationships with Canada, the EU / NATO, and pushing BRICS countries further away, benefits them more than anybody else.
And certainly our economic might being sabotaged from within would benefit them and China on the world stage.
Especially when you consider the whole Mexico and Canada tariff saga was mostly just staged chaos that probably was never intended to do anything other than erode our reputation in the international community.
you are richer than god. what do you do?
pull a ‘chuck feeney’ and give it all away?
take time off and enjoy what you’ve “worked so hard for”?
no, the fucking asswipe is working harder than he ever has in his life to literally destroy the country that made him all that money.
Gotta pull up the ladder and burn everything that could be used to make a new one.
I mean, he wants to be a king. A king doesn’t need his subordinates to have a voice.
Elon Musk needs to be stopped.
It’s spelled with ch, not st
To pieces you say
To shreds and pieces you say
Smitheries you say?
No, it’s not good to chop people up, no matter how much you hate them. Elon should be stopped. That’s it. Stop acting “hard” on the internet. It makes you look stupid.
Edit: All the wannabe sicarios in the comments will wilt like the bitch-made invertebrates they are when actually faced with the prospect of dismembering a person. If they don’t, they’re psychopaths who need psychiatric treatment.
Elon’s actions are going to kill an untold number of people. What institution or legal action is going to stop him?
One can successfully oppose enemies of a free and open society without resorting to gruesomely killing them (i.e., “chopping them up”).
I guarantee you’ll wilt like a leaf if you had to chop him up. If that prospect doesn’t give you any pause, you’re a psychopath.
One can successfully oppose enemies of a free and open society
How exactly? You didn’t even attempt to answer my question. Elon’s coup hasn’t faced any effective resistance.
Once again: gruesomely killing Elon Musk isn’t a viable, practical, nor moral solution to preventing his dismantling of our federal republic.
To answer your “straw-man” question and play your game: wildcat or general strike, armed revolution, or insurgency. Striking is the solution with the least potential bloodshed.
Good luck trying cut up Musk with a machete or trying to fight the US military domestically which uses Predator drones armed with Hellfire missiles, not to mention fifth generation multi-role fighter aircraft and Apache gunships. Even if you succeed getting to him and chopping him up, guess what? You’re still a psychopath because only psychopaths willingly dismember people.
Chop up Elon. Eat the rich. I wasn’t hard before, but I am now!
stopped isn’t the word most of us would use
Stopping power is a phrase that comes to mind. Muzzle velocity also.
Lead Supplements are proven to remove fascism from the body
“They come in a handy capsule form.”
The US makes most of the dispensers.
“He’s committing the must heinous crimes against our society, a hostile takeover of the government, completely bypassing the rule of law. Could there be some kind of conflict of interest here?”
I laugh to keep from weeping.
They’ve already downgraded the $2 trillion to $500 billion? That’s not hardcore at all.
