Just here for my daily question of: How the fuck does this man have the authority to "order" fucking anything within my government?
Executive branch controls executive things. Voters elected orange man who likes elon.
Put simple, because people wanted this.
Millions of DNC voters stayed home in the 2024 election and known pro-billionaire convicted felon Donald Trump won the presidency.
Now that still technically doesn't give him the power to create a new office. Instead, they kicked everyone out of the digital services office and changed the sign on the door to DOGE. Now that STILL didn't give him power over other offices and the budget, so they've instead been working alongside traitors in the treasury and fighting the courts over legitimacy of their firings and funding freezes.
I heard republicans canceled many votes tirelessly looking for small mistakes
There absolutely was voter suppression, a voter deregistration campaign, and thrown out votes but sadly it wasn't anywhere near a close enough race for those votes to make a difference. Trump won by millions, and theres a much bigger difference between Harris and Biden 2020's numbers to the tune of 7 Million votes.
That's not fraud or corruption. Thats low turnout.
I thought he won by about 1.5 mil
2.3 Million
Just because Republicans SHOOT their Puppies and DEFUND Dogs DOESNT mean they HATE Dogs!
The last time a major terrorist attack happened, the government got expansion of powers.
This is preparing for the next 9/11, reichstag-fire style.
And the dems will approve the Enabling Act.
They gladly will, especially if its a reach around in the name of compromise and good faith to the "Actually Just Open Nazis and Bad Faith Liars" party.
And the dems will approve the Enabling Act.
if the patriot act is any indication, yes.
The one person who voted no to the Patriot Act was voted out next election.
Let that be a lesson to all Americans. The one person who voted to protect the freedoms of America was voted out because it looked bad on paper.
He's starving dogs!
Yeah Elon Musk is a sick fuck, though lets be real. We all knew he wasn't above something like this, this is just proving what we all knew about him. It's still horrible though.
This is going to be the thing that gets white people off the train. Being mean to the dogs.
i'd wager good money they ignore it
They didn't give a shit about kristi noam.
If it’s not already a thing we should start a live tracker of Elon’s current or last known whereabouts. For academic purposes.
Like the Elon flight tracker?
Yes, but I was thinking of a system with more … granularity and resolution. Maybe take the flight tracker and add to it, like noting the color of the vehicle he got in and its plate number. For research. Let’s say it’s to help calculate his efficiency with tax payer dollars.
Maybe some brave air traffic controller can take one for the team and send his plane into the Atlantic Ocean.
I pray everyday for a poetic Mussolini ending for Musk
Nah, he's cutting corners in bomb detecting dogs, it's gonna be a Carrero Blanco 2 electric boogaloo
This is some unhinged shit. Is it the drugs? Is it the Putin?
Can we please stop blaming ‘drugs’ or ketamine specifically, even when joking. This is seriously hurting its reputation and future use as a therapeutic option. It might not feel like a big deal but every time we say this it normalizes it. Not targeting you specifically just trying to call it out any time I see it - thank you.
Putin. Not even once kids.
Poutine though, more than once!
Elon orders government. They said it out loud.
Hoping to kick off a war when a bomb does slip through the cracks.
Beyond animal cruelty, you NEED bomb sniffing dogs! Holy shit! Do they realize that now potential bombers would have a huge upper hand in carrying explosives into airports? Why don't they say 'well those metal detectors and xray machines are too fancy' and go back to the late 60s when there was a hijacking once every 5.6 DAYS.
That's actually really shocking. I looked it up, and you're correct. Hijackings were extremely common in the 60s and 70s.
They'll still feed the drug sniffing dogs, though.
Why don't they say 'well those metal detectors and xray machines are too fancy'
I'm sure they'll cut maintenance budgets too, it just takes x-ray machines longer to starve

Musk: The fundamental weakness of Western civilization is empathy. The empathy exploit. They're exploiting a bug in Western civilization, which is the empathy response. So, I think, you know, empathy is good, but you need to think it through and not just be programmed like a robot.

That’s definitely something a malignant narcissist would say
Every time I read something about the USA in the last few weeks I think "Wow that's shitty. How can it get worse?"
In short order, the answer to my question is served up. I find it worse when the victims cannot speak or stand up for themselves. Though horrible things are happening to a wide range of victims at least they can protest, take action etc. The dogs cannot. I only hope that the handlers make sure the welfare of these animals is taken care of despite the order. They do not deserve to be pawns in the MAGA game, but then no one does.

Oh well I'm sure the cabinet secretary who oversees TSA will get right on that oh wait she loves killing dogs too
I have an idea for what we could feed those dogs.
Oh lord. The residual ketamine might kill them

So how does it go down when a moral human is forced to respond to this? Curious to get a scenario where an unelected bureaucrat tells you to ignore congress?
Failing to feed and look after animals you are responsible of is animal abuse and illegal.
I thought that we already established that in Magastan "illegal" is only for poor people.

Having dog handlers pay for the dogs they need for work is totally in line with having teachers pay for teaching tools.
Sounds like those dogs should start letting bombs through to me.
Yes let’s start starving animals now. Great job Republiscum.
