It is about time these questions have been asked. Additionally Musk must be removed from this position, as he has no role in our government. Musk also be removed from Trumps inner circle in the WH. He has no business reason, or otherwise, to advise Trump or be present during any meetings with the President.

Please scroll down to my post (Deborah Newman). I've been doing a lot of research about the relationship of Musk, Trump, Vance and other nefarious actors involved with Project 2025. I've been sending it everywhere (my congressman, attorney general, various podcasts but don't think it's getting much attention). Trump and Vance are totally involved in the demise of our democracy. Trump should be impeached and they both should be arrested for treason.

I know, but look up Curtis Yarvin and Peter Thiel who stay in the background about Project 2025. Trump is their puppet. Trump did not come up with all those executive orders on his own! He's not that smart.

Peter Thiel was Vance's boss and Mentor and greatly contributed to his senate campaign. He forced Trump to take Vance as his running mate or he would contribute to Trump's campaign.

Thiel and Musk are business associates and founded PayPal. Yarvin and Thiel go way back in the tech industry. Yarvin has made no secret over the years that he hates democracy and writes some pretty dark stuff and has been interviewed many times.

They've all been seen together at Trump's inaugural and galas and have hosted parties themselves. Republic senators are also involved.

Darlene-I wholeheartedly agree-Trump is making a mockery of our government and Constitution, and he and musk must be held accountable for what I see is unlawful and unconstitutional actions. I’m sure Trump doesn’t give a rooty toot with the American people think at this point, but he needs to be throttled in my opinion.

While I totally agree with your position I really wish all of us would recognize the emptiness of sentences that say what "must" happen. Especially in the passive voice. "Musk must be removed"....we WANT him to be removed for the good--maybe even survival--of our country. But notice there is no subject in these sentences--WHO are we suggesting remove Musk? Well, we aren't. That's because there is no logical entity or person in the position to do that. The helplessness inherent in this awareness is just crushing. But masking that helplessness with hollow pronouncements like "Musk must be removed!", no matter how passionately we believe it, just keeps the denial going. (I hope you don't take this personally. I really do agree with you, and mean my comment for all of us--we all do it.)

Newsflash: Doge-bag posser, Muskrat, called A Real Astronaut, retarded after Danish Astronaut Andy Mogensen told muskrat he was spreading lies about some rescue. The Muskrat tried to claim he could save them. LOL! BOLD TALK MUSKRAT, FROM A GUY NEVER IN SPACE AND WHO'S LAST SPACESHIP BLEW UP AFTER LIFTOFF! Way to go musk-moron. No go hit some more Kat.

I doubt they will respond to the Democrats despite this effort. We are truly in dangerous times when the Republican Party has chosen to ignore the usurpation of their duties set forth in the Constitution and allowed the Executive Branch to run roughshod over the Legislative and Judicial Branches of government.

They are not staying silent. They are on the record. That is important.

I prefer Nixon era Democrats rather than the group we have now. We need to demand more from democrats and they need to develop a strategy to combat the destruction of Democracy. Standing in front of a microphone and giving canned remarks isn’t enough. My fellow Veterans are suffering and they deserve more. I served in the military for twenty years of which included five years serving in NATO. NATO is an asset and deserves respect. The Nation deserves more than photo ops and empty rhetoric.

Yeah, that's great news! I am hoping desperately that impeachment will happen even though the Republicans have to bring it. And even though we don't have any Republicans in line worth anything, at least Trump and Vance would be gone. Ha ha Trump. Yes, we'd have to take both away. Vance is just as dangerous. I've read it can be done. SOON PLEASE.

Turning his back on Ukraine 🇺🇦 and aligning himself with Putin is surely enough.

Vance is more dangerous than Trump because he’s been suckered into doing and saying things because of Musk and Bessent.

Yes, Vance is very dangerous. That's why I say they both need to be impeached together. I've read it is possible.

I’ve been disappointed by the democrats inability to have been better prepared. Having said that, this is good. Now they need independent media to stay on the investigation. I’d say the legacy media as well but they’ve proven that they dgaf. The committee members need to be in front of microphones frequently. They are making a solid contribution to getting information we all need to hear. They are doing something to protect what is left of the country we knew. They deserve our support.

Please see my post about how Trump, Vance, Musk and others are involved in Project 2025, which Trump lied that he didn't know anything about it. They've been planning this for years. It's so dark and hard to believe, but I've done a ton of exhausting research to connect all of them.

I don’t think Trump is pulling the strings. It’s Putin, Orban, Musk, Bessent, and their thugs. Yes it’s been planned for years and years. Anyone making $1million or more likes him because he makes them more money through lowering taxes for them. Can’t believe people can be this greedy. Time to write and call Congress.

Expand full comment

You don't agree it's Project 2025? It's a playbook for everything that's happening. Musk gutting the government and infiltrating the systems and replacing with their own AI systems is one of the last phases. Maybe Putin and Orbin come into play at some point. Check out the relationships between Trump, Vance, Musk, Peter Thiel, Curtis Yarvin, Russ Vought.

Yes. This has been years in the making. It’s been the plan all along. It boils down to keeping a white “Christian” majority in this country. They are afraid of

Losing that. Consolidate power, deport immigrants, keep people of color down, and continue to consolidate wealth. That’s IMHO.

I've called and written my senators and attorney general and it seems to fall on deaf ears. Now democrats are confused and asking what's going between Trump and Musk. Everyone knows about Project 2025 and the Heritage Foundation. Trump has even put many of them in government jobs, including Ross Vought as head of OMB. It can't be more clear! Please write and call your senators, AG and governor as well. Have to keep trying.

Yes please call your congressmen and women, your attorney general, governor. I have been but no one is listening. Democrats are saying what’s going on with Musk and Trump. Come on, it’s Project 2025 which they know about. Thank you.

This is why they are saying "Musk isn't in charge", and not following FOIA requests. They are afraid and COWARDS, as bullies usually are.

Totally agree! It really doesn’t matter what they say his role or job is. He’s doing what he wants and Trump can’t stop him.

Democrats must do better. Reps. J. Crockett, R. Goldman, A.O.C., and a couple of others, should not carry the water, along with the minority speaker. Come on people, step up.

Another county heard from: I’m watching Ari Melber on MSNBC. He interviewed a SCOTUS analyst who said the Republicans want their worst “shit” to hit the fan early, go before federal judges and congressional committees which will

hasten their “trip” to SCOTUS. Once there, they will have friendlier judges and will likely face few consequences, since SCOTUS “gifted” the president with all-purpose immunity. Their Faustian actions may be excused, so they can continue down Authoritarian Alley. They are in a hurry, because they realize 2026 is on the horizon, and they need to be well entrenched by then. Yikes! This is the most frightening thing I have heard so far.

Good!

POS and Skum want it both ways - he's the head of DOGE and he's not. So, does Elon Musk even exist? Is he the administration's Schrödinger's Cat? So, POS is now a quantum physics expert? Does that absolve him/them of perjury?

And why isn’t the entire party collectively defending this motion? Why does it have to be one person and not the entire party? because power is in numbers.

Maybe because such motions are started by individuals, not mass groups. He's using his position on the Oversight Committee. The party is behind him.

No they’re not. When you have Jeffries, the Dem House leader claiming there’s nothing he can do, he basically said he’s not fighting. And the Dem party could be making a stand. They are not. Dem Rep. Garcia was attacked by Musk because he criticized him. The Dems COULD jointly make a stand in support yet they aren’t. There is no unity.

Trump, Vance, Peter Thiel, Curtis Yarvin, Musk, Russ Vought (Heritage Foundation) and the Christian Nationalists are complicit in carrying out Project 2025. Trump lied that he didn’t know anything about it.

They’re all connected in one way or another for years. They collectively have an intense hatred for democracy and intend to totally destroy it and replace it with a white supremacist autocracy with an extreme and oppressive Christian ideology. Trump was ready to go with all the executive orders to begin this plan immediately. He didn't come up with them on his own.

Musk’s role is to dismantle the government piece by piece (under the ruse that they’re cutting cost and fraud). He is replacing computers systems with their AI systems using their juvenile techno minions. It’s one of the last phases of Project 2025.

They are all hiding in plain sight (see links below). Yarvin and Thiel were at the inauguration, gala events and hosted parties. Yarvin was an honored guest at the inauguration gala.

Many republicans in congress support Trump and Project 2025 and others have been threatened, thus congress’ questionable approvals and attitude.

Can’t Trump be impeached for treason?!! Time is running out to stop this assault on our government, country and democracy!

He has many friends in congress and SCOTUS that he’s promised millions to. With the oligarchs along side him, he’s doing to the GOP faithful what the oligarchs are doing for him. He’s taken chapters out of Hitler’s book but for different reasons.
