  1. Elon has vocally expressed fear of life imprisonment if dems win midterms, of course his agency would be trying to influence the election.

    Trump has been promising “evidence” of “massive election fraud” for years. 

    He even led an insurrection without any evidence, promising it would come later. It didn’t.  

    I’m guessing these DOGE guys didn’t find any evidence either despite going way outside of their scope to access private voter data on behalf of a non-governmental entity. 

    Still waiting on that evidence, bros.

    Elon Musk is a dangerous criminal immigrant. He should be arrested and denaturalized and deported to El Salvador.

  4. “Two staff members with Elon Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency team at the Social Security Administration were secretly in touch with a right-wing advocacy group trying to “overturn election results,” according to the Department of Justice.

    A court filing in a long-running lawsuit targeting DOGE’s efforts inside Social Security reveals that at least one DOGE staffer signed an agreement with the activist group that may have involved providing Americans’ Social Security information in an effort to match that data to state voter registrations.

    It’s unclear whether the DOGE staffers — neither of whom are identified in court filings — actually shared data with the activist group”

    Oh good so it’s just boys being boys I guess, a little locker room talk

    Jfc. 

  5. This is a hugely significant headline, but most people won’t see it, and most who do will forget about it by tomorrow. We are running out of outrage.

    So all our private information is now with a third party who has no right to the information. When I worked for Social Security, I immediately had to report if I fat-fingered a number that wasn’t assigned to me, so how can these folks just take what they want?

    Trump and Elon will be perfect in a cell together, and we should 100% seize their assets for selling our country. All the voting irregularities on the machines that have come out recently is pretty damning in all the swing states.

    Remember who was behind this??? (From PublicCitizen) “In his first week as Treasury Secretary, Scott Bessent gave Elon Musk’s “DOGE” full access to the data of the Bureau of the Fiscal Service and computer systems that house the data. He did so without making any public announcement, providing any legal justification or explanation for his decision, or undertaking the process required by law for altering the agency’s disclosure policies. The scale of the intrusion into individuals’ privacy is massive and unprecedented.”

    India and China has already rejected Musk, he is sad sick man who wants to bring the same disease to Europe next and Finally he will flee to Russia cz interpol would be after him. Fin

    Tony Stark ❌ 🤡✅

    In other words, the Trump/Musk led organization tasked with rooting out governmental fraud and abuse were themselves the main perpetrators of governmental fraud and abuse. Is that right?

    If you want to fight Elon musk , then you have to make it entirely socially unacceptable to drive a Tesla or have one at all. The only way to do that it to enforce social consequences and ostracize Tesla drivers.

    Consider statements:

    1. ⁠⁠⁠I’m not going to ride with you, I wouldn’t want to be seen in a Tesla.
    2. ⁠⁠⁠If you’re coming over could you park around the corner. I wouldn’t want my neighbors to think I was cool with tesla.
    3. ⁠⁠⁠I’d never sleep with someone who drove a tesla it’s a huge red flag

    It’ll will take more than just not buying them to stop people from buying them. People with moral objections to musk already haven’t been buying him since he:

    1. ⁠⁠⁠Ran the original inventor who’s passion product became Tesla out of the company
    2. ⁠⁠⁠Nurtured a hostile and racist work environment for which he was sued
    3. ⁠⁠⁠Over promised and under delivered on their product just straight up lying about features
    4. ⁠⁠⁠Sexually assaulted his employees.
    5. ⁠⁠⁠Publicly humiliated and shamed his children
    6. ⁠⁠⁠Threw a tantrum calling a hero a pedofile because he had the audacity to point out his sub was bs.
    7. ⁠⁠⁠Started a hyperloop con to derail public transport.
    8. ⁠⁠⁠Bought twitter to boost hate speech.
    9. ⁠⁠⁠Gave public and financial support to Neo Nazis around the world
    10. ⁠⁠⁠Littered the night sky with trash.
    11. ⁠⁠⁠Helped trumps fascist regime come to power with money and electoral malfeasance.
    12. ⁠⁠⁠Destroyed national institutions and stole data with doge all while mocking the American people with props.
    13. ⁠⁠⁠Flashed a Nazi salute and lied about it as though it were not already obvious what he was about.

    If you wanna stop him. Focus on the people who support him.

    Remember Tesla drivers:

    1. ⁠⁠⁠97%. Own their own home
    2. ⁠⁠⁠Have an average salary of $144,000
    3. ⁠⁠⁠90% of ev owners have more than one car.

    So don’t believe the strawman about poor Tesla drivers stuck with no option but to keep flying musks Nazi flag.

    Besides even if you got your swastika tattoo before you knew about the holocaust. If you refuse to cover it, you are in fact making a statement. And we should hold you accountable.

    If you think that we should be boycotting a different company show me definitive proof that they have done “all” of what Elon has “and” also shut the hell up

    Maybe he should do some more emotional gender reaffirming surgeries. I’m sure there is enough of his mutilated penis left to make something decent.

    So, when is the class action lawsuit against Musk? It’s time to take his $700 billion net worth to zero.

    > Both staffers were referred to the Justice Department for potential violations of the Hatch Act, which broadly prohibits political activities from federal workers.

    Yeah, I’m sure that the Pam Bondi led DOJ is going to take this matter very seriously.

    Every few hours an article like this pops across my feed and I want to skip it because I just saw 5 other terrible things happening in my government in my country but I can’t because thats how they win & all I want to do is fucking puke I’m tired of calling my congress people I’m tired of protesting I’m not gonna stop but fucking god when will something actually fucking HAPPEN

  16. The First Felon bragged directly to the camera that elon had taken care of things in PA.

  17. Then this means that *both Trump and Musk* are engaged in a criminal conspiracy against the United States government and the American people

  18. Sounds like the DOJ is telling Elon to rig another election if he doesn’t want all this aired out.

  19. CrabmasterJone on

    I’m having a very hard time understanding the DOJ stance on anything nowadays. The legitimacy of any statement they make isn’t reliable anymore. But I would have imagined they wouldn’t want this type of info publicized to stoke flames. I mean we’ve all been assuming that DOGE did this bull crap…. But… why bring it up now and take this stance?

  20. seeLabmonkey2020 on

    The question the brings up for me is “how do we get ahead of the fraudulent claims they will bring after the midterms and 2028?”

  21. Challenger2060 on

    Holy shit y’all. On the one hand, these treasonous pricks sold our data to seditious organizations trying to overthrow our government.

    On the other hand, these treasonous pricks sold our to seditious organizations trying to overthrow our government.

  22. There it is. And guess what? The only entity able to investigate and charge themselves is themselves. Ain’t that grand?

  23. ur_anus_is_a_planet on

    Did I just read that he put sensitive Social Security data on a Cloudflare server?!?

  24. HillbillyInCakalaky on

    Why would the DOJ admit this unless they were intentionally trying to sow doubt into the next election? Oh TeslaBoy was worried that a Dem win would land him in jail, he’s about to become the reason why the elections get called off

  25. Where’s Joe Rogan in all of this? He should be asking Elon directly while they pass a blunt around the table. Isn’t that what made them both so cool?
