Basically, I knew about Musk and Thiel and their love of Nazi ideas. Knew about Musk's mom being a Nazi and her family being Nazis. Knew that there was this sort of alliance of South African tech bros that support Nazi garbage but I have not delved into guys like Sacks and Botha. Knew that Trump adored Hitler and was always quite excited by him Knew that Stephen Miller also embraced Nazi ideals. Knew that Trump loves surrounding himself with horrific garbage people that are criminal, racist, anti-democratic, anti-American, anti-constitution. The list of absolutely awful people that "advise" Trump is endless. Roger Stone, Steve Bannon, Matt Gaetz, it's all flies attracted to the pile of steaming shit that Donald is. 

Russell Vought, yup the Project 2025 guy, has just been confirmed by the Senate to one of the most powerful positions in government...and this guy openly says he believes we are now living in a post-Constitution United States. Yup, openly says he feels the Constitution is done, gone, in the garbage, no longer applies, and neither does the rule of law. 

And the Senate, knowing he says that, confirmed him anyway. 

I may be a fucking idiot but I feel like just 20 years ago if you had a guy up for Senate confirmation for a powerful oversight position that openly said he believes the Constitution no longer applies in our country they would have tossed that stupid motherfucker out so fast he would make Usain Bolt look like he was moving in slow motion. 

The statement I am about to make is real, really happening, even though this is going to sound like an idiotic joke. Like, how could these people be so goddamn stupid. Musk's "DOGE" team is made up of a bunch of 19 to 20 something hackers. One of the main ones being some guy that goes by the name "Big Balls" and that has ties to doing hacking work for the Russians and Chinese. He openly has that on his resume. And Musk and the Republicans have given this group of kids with really questionable backgrounds access to government information systems that could totally expose the country to a whole bunch of bad actors and give our enemies, like China and Russia, info on not just our citizens, but everybody, our military, our intelligence people, our politicians...everything and everybody. These "kiddy coders" do not reveal their real names to anyone. They do not have security clearances to be digging through sensitive, protected government information. They have the ability to call a person or persons that have clearances into a room and question them and they are not required to even tell our government employees, the people that actually have security clearances, what their names are. They can literally say to a government official "My name is Big Balls, tell me what I want to know, or we will look to have you fired."

A pimple faced 19 year kid can do that now, under Musk and DOGE, and the president of the United States and Republican senators think that is perfectly fine. 

Musk has his own issues with ties to the Chinese and Putin, has no security clearance, and is "policing himself" and makes his own decision if something is a "conflict of interest" or not. He decides that, no oversight, nobody monitoring what he is doing. He is allowed to do whatever he wants, and then if he thinks he wants to, he tells a "DOGE caucus" of corrupt Republicans if they should do something. 

This is, of course, a violation of a variety of laws and is an epic national security risk that has left our country and the people that live in it extremely unsafe and compromised. 

Trump's way around the law giving this extremely dangerous clown show access to information that required a security clearance is to sign an executive order stating he can give a security clearance to anybody he wants, without the person actually having to go thorough background checks and clearance procedures. He can just give them one like a piece of Halloween candy. 

This a so jaw-droppingly stupid and dangerous it could/should cause a person's head to explode. 

How there is not a lawsuit with a cease and desist in place to stop this dead in its tracks is beyond me. We really are at WTF OMG levels of insanity...right now. 

I heard a Republican DOGE caucus nitwit last night say "Well, they have read only access, not full access. So, nobody should be worried. They have to tell us what they find." 

What that means is, yes, they can read whatever they want, have access to look at anything they want, they can record that information in whatever way they want...they just are not supposed to have access to alter that information. These kids are hackers, that is what they are. Musk's boy Big Balls is known for being hired to hack and plant information. He is inside our government's information systems and has no security clearance to be there. 

I'm just going to be honest here, if I am a government official with a security clearance, and some pimple faced 19 year old kid or some moron calling himself Big Balls calls me into a room and tells me I have tell them what they want to know...I am going to rapidly list for them the 2000 ways they can go fuck themselves and go tell your Nazi loving boss Elon that he can go ahead and try to have me fired and let the wrongful termination suits start to fly. 

People with a security clearance working in our government have sworn an oath to protect and defend our country...and that means from people like Musk and his band of adolescent keyboard jockeys. 

Who do these people think they are?
