On The Donald, a pro-Trump message board and the home for the most extreme of the president’s supporters, the home page has been dominated by news stories and discussions about Musk and DOGE’s takeover of a number of government agencies. Trump is barely mentioned. 🔗 www.wired.com/story/far-ri...

While Democratic leadership has railed in recent days that Musk was not elected and does not have a mandate to conduct this type of sweeping change within government, Musk’s fans have dismissed such criticism as trivial. 🔗 www.wired.com/story/far-ri...

“The American people quite literally voted for Elon Musk and DOGE when they elected Donald Trump with a historic mandate,” right-wing commentator Charlie Kirk posted on X on Wednesday. “Buckle up, Democrats.” Read the full article: www.wired.com/story/far-ri...

The fact of the matter is that Elon wasn’t on any election ballots and he’s not an official government employee who took an oath to the Constitution and he has not taken any ethics training or filled out an OGE-450 form like most government employees.

Historic mandate?? He BARELY won. He LOST House seats. There’s no historic mandate and Trump is actually very weak. These absurd lies are an attempt to prop up a naked emperor.

This is not a left vs right issue, this is an up and down issue. Like it or not, the only way to combat these blatantly illegal actions by President Musk is for the American people to work together. We can’t trust politicians to do this for us.

Kamala gets the nom: “this is subverting the will of the voters!!! They didn’t cast a ballot for her!!!” Elon steals our data: “We literally voted for Elon. Suck it Dems!”

Since Charlie's premise is untrue (historic mandate), so is his statement. Interesting that Musk's illegal overreach needs a gaslighting defense to MAGA. The btw silver lining is that Elon's noisy roadshow is relegating Felon#47 to an afterthought amongst his fans. That can only end well.👏🏼

Unfortunately they don’t care. They don’t need mandate or landslide. Fascists only need to get to power by any means. Hitler’s NSDAP got only 33.1% of vote but when he became chancellor he established dictatorship.

As a Jew I found it astounding that the right wing Jews and Israel haven’t seen the lions eating their face the same as he has eaten the watermelon heads and the Latinos 4 Deportations heads .. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Sad to have to repeat this on friends, “but elections have consequences”. Every black and Hispanic man who voted for this abhorrent evil, every non-voter, every college student who voted for him, this is what you get.

Actually, I'm thinking right about now the GOP in Congress hate Trump as much or more than the Dems. They have to sit back in silence and watch this unfold, knowing they're complicit in all of it.
