49. Musk And DOGE Are Criminals

Tue Feb 4, 2025, 03:04 PM

Feb 2025

Musk and his DOGE Agents are actually the ones guilty of committing a crime. Their "authority" is unconstitutional. They are guilty of Obstruction of Government Operations.

Their attempts to freeze Federal funds is illegal as well. The Executive Branch does not have the legal right to freeze funds that have been authorized by the Congress. They also have no legal right to dissolve an Agency created by Congress.

This is a flagrant violation of the Constitution and the Separation of Powers. These people are domestic enemies of the Constitution and everyone that has taken an Oath to defend the Constitution must take action against these traitors and criminals.

It seems clear that these fascists will now weaponize the criminal justice system in DC and will drum up false and spurious charges against anyone that tries to stand against their authoritarian takeover of OUR government. This is an attempted deathblow to our Democracy. I do not believe that the People will stand for it. There will be an uprising of millions.

What do you think are the odds? Irish_Dem Feb 2025 #22

I would say 75% shut it down altogether, 25% they send checks only to MAGA. LiberalLoner Feb 2025 #26

Yes at least 50/50 federal pensions will be reduced. Irish_Dem Feb 2025 #31
