You've listed two of these.
If you keep focusing on the visible chaos & those who make the most noise, then you ignore the covert problems we face that DOGE & its supporters want you to focus on.
Outside of Musk & Thiel look at these figures. They pose a Clear & Present Danger to America.

Why is it that ultra rich homosexuals, like Thiel & Bessent, are backing this Coup, Anti-Democracy, Anti-LGBTQ+, Christian Nationalist, White Supremicist, Authoritarian regime that has voiced opposition them, but not their money?

In Dec, Trump named Thiel partner Ken Howery as ambassador to Denmark & said the US shld buy Greenland. Praxis & Dryden are thrilled...1/

Just switched my pharmacy from Publix to Walgreens, and will no longer shop there either. These corporations keep picking what side they are on & I will keep spending my money accordingly...

Publix allows open carry, but what about Miami-area Winn-Dixie, malls, theaters? - NewsBreak

Florida is now an open-carry state. But not everywhere. Businesses have the final say on whether customers can holster a firearm outside their clothing. So

Not surprising. The Family that owns Publix also helped finance the 1/6 insurrection & paid for buses to transport assholes from Florida to DC.

Melania crows about working with the enemy to return 8 children out of an estimated 35,000 children stolen by Russia & placed in "re-education" camps.

It's never substantive & always performative with this fucking family.

It's also transactional. I'm wondering how she & The Felon monetized this.

They have to have a backup plan to the "dangerous immigrants" narrative. They have one. They've literally created a "terrorist group" out of thin air. I mean, you can't be having free and fair elections with "enemies from within," like the "Antifa Terrorist" group running around. It's a pretext.

I wish they'd said a lot of things.

For all their tough bluster, Democrats seem to have let Bribery Bondi off the hook by skating around the issues on the peripherals & not driving into the very heart of the issues DOJ & this administration are plaguing our country with.
