You can regulate a pregnant body, but not a coal plant
You can control the free speech of a teacher, but not the money-as-speech of a corporation
You can coerce a child to pray in school, but you can't keep guns out of their classroom
What a ridiculous world this Supreme Court is validating

"It is often said: When the government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. If that is true, then only weeks into Donald Trump’s four-year term, we are approaching tyranny."

For the act of gaining access to the government's payment system, Elon Musk should be sitting in a prison cell RIGHT NOW. He's unelected, serves NO official purpose in government beyond Trump's imagination, and just hacked a vital government system. End of story. He must be stopped and punished.

1/ Musk seeking control over nerve systems of the federal government. As someone who spent a decade studying how centralized information systems are used for coercion this is a five alarm fire. We need to name it, identify risks, and seek to mitigate their impacts.
