If the Venezuelan sailors weren’t enemy combatants, then both strikes are criminal murder.

What Musk and DOGE are doing is THE constitutional crisis. Congress decides on spending, not 20 year old cronies of an oligarch.
So where is Congress while Trump and Musk delegate them out of existence? If Musk decides to save money by dissolving the House, do they just go home?

Where are the defenders of the US as Elon and nameless private agents infiltrate US agencies, commandeer US servers, steal US data, seize US money, march US officials from US buildings? Who sallies forth from the FBI? The CIA? Congress? DoD? The media? This is a coup—and America appears defenseless.

@nytimes.com why are you not screaming banner headlines about the Musk-led coup in Washington? His minions have illegally gained access to the SS# and more of every American. HC Richardson calls it “the largest data breach in American history”. DO NOT CAPITULATE - REPORT THIS SHIT NOW.
