Can’t Trump and Vance be arrested for treason for trying to overthrow the government of the United States of America?! So many servicemen and women have died for our freedom.

No. Trump has immunity thanks to the conservative Supreme Court majority, and they control federal law enforcement. There is no one to charge them with anything. Even if they could be charged, Trump could use his power over the DOJ to drop the charges. The only way to stop them is to start winning elections in 2026, and elections are state run, not federal so Trump can't stop them.----Jason

Do you really think would make it to 2026 elections and that they could be fair?

I believe the way things r going now either republicans switch sides to vote democrats or they won't vote. Whereas all democrats will vote and they'll lose over and over again. The American people r not stupid and hate what's happening and it's all republicans fault

I suppose that’s true, or it will be held up in courts for years deciding what was covered under his immunity. But we aren’t going to make it to 2026 at the pace they’re going in conjunction with Project 2025.

Can’t they at least stop Musk from going into agencies and gutting them and firing everyone since it’s supposedly illegal? Although he’s already done a lot of damage.

So far, lawsuits challenging DOGE cuts have been fairly successful. Unfortunately, not everybody has the money to go to court to challenge DOGE.

Don’t forget there are special elections as early as this April. Donate and pass it on!

Yeah, if we survive as a country to have elections at all in 2026. I keep reminding myself to fight, and not give in to despair.

Wrong. He does not have blanket immunity. We have to sue them, drag the cases through the courts and eventually they wind up in the Supreme Court, where THEY decide if he has immunity as an “official act.”

People need to stop saying this.

If SCOTUS decides he DOES have immunity on an act that was formerly deemed unconstitutional, WE REVOLT.

What did Trump know about the Muskrats part in messing with computer data to give Pennsylvania to Trump that Mike the Weasel also knew about? The Weasel plotted project 2025 too, didn’t he? I believe the dead fish they think they buried are beginning to reek way past being ignored anymore. Why the bloody hell are the Democrats not on this like white on rice?!?!?!

Disagree.

He does Not have total immunity from breaking any law he wants to. You’re sending a message that we’re truly helpless and that’s just not the case.

Elections are coming on April 1st in Florida. Even if you can’t vote there, send donations to Gay Valimont and Josh Weil. I live in Minnesota, but gladly gave to these brave democrats.

Actually Trump can order what he likes with Impunity. However anyone not realizing an order is illegal and complying or implementing it is NOT IMMUNE. They need to be told it’s illegal confirmed by legal advice and ask for a legal version of the order.

Musk and Trump are using cutting fraud, waste and abuse as a RUSE to dismantle our government and democracy in accordance with Project 2025. Trump lied that he didn’t know anything about it. They want to replace our freedom with a white supremacist, autocracy and extreme oppressive Christian ideology (and I say Christian lightly because they are anything but).

So exactly how do the elderly, poor, disabled “get ready” for losses of Medicare and Social Security ( services they have paid into over their working lives) and Medicaid.

It would NEVER occur to Musk/Trump that the average working American was NOT born into

any level of inherited wealth! They have working class jobs that keep the wheels of

Capitalism turning! Most of them are decent

people who work hard,mind their own business and give and share until it hurts.

Trump/Musk are only takers. They have no concept of giving on any level!

Many wealthy individuals are philanthropic by nature but we all know as a class most Super

wealthy are greedy🐷pigs!

It sounds Corse but it’s true and disgusting!!

I have stopped squirreling away what little I could. Passage of The Social Security Act - Thank You, Democrats, and one Republican who helped author the bill - was all to placate us. We will probably never see it come to fruition. I knew something was up when FELON came out and said he supported the SSFA. I pray I am wrong, can keep my house as it is just about all I can leave my daughter when I am gone. Things like traveling, updating my house (even window coverings), and landscaping are absolutely tabled.

It is all in Project 2025 but that was only Part One. Part Two is not published nor will it ever be. This is not news. It hit the media 6 months ago. What surprises me is Congress had no game plan. None of this is unexpected. None of it. So really what's the use of commenting on any of it?

Follow the money: in 2018, Mike Johnson’s net worth was -$32k … Dec ‘24 his estimated net worth is $6million! Marco Rubio had NEGATIVE $1+mil… now has POSITIVE $1+mil! Look at the net worth (while you still can) of all the Republicans in Congress and you’ll see why they’re voting the way they are.

You must’ve watched something different than I did because Zelensky could barely get a word in edgewise JD. Vance started the tag team

Beratement of Zelenskyy

Expand full comment

That was what I thought as well! I was angry watching CBS! They coined the meeting as “both sides YELLING at each other”! Excuse me? What’s that now? Uh, no! Zelensky was trying to speak, he was being berated on National broadcast! He held a dignified, and respectful conversation (or tried to). When my back is up against the wall, as his was, I come out fighting, often to my detriment, and often regret my short fuse. Zelensky was the only adult in the room and somehow remained composed. Just plain sickening!

Since Republicans won’t help our Democrat senators need to ramp up to save Medicaid, Medicare and Social Security. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. No one 150 years old is getting social security. It didn’t start until 1935. Come on! Who would put birth dates in the 1800’s!!! They’re just saying that so they can lay the groundwork for shutting them down.

People rely on those programs to live check to check but in reality they don’t care if we live or not. And they don’t think we’ll have elections again so they aren’t worried about pleasing their constituents.

Expand full comment

Agree. Slight correction. There were plenty of people who had birth dates in the 1800s in 1935. High end 100yr-old - 1835, lowest at 65 would be born in 1870.

Expand full comment

I see what you mean. But erroneous birthdates would have had to be used for many years or people born in say 1875 were still being paid to this day to make it as bad as what Musk is claiming. Yet he provided still no names.

Because he had none.

The explanation I've seen, and it makes sense as I'm old enough to remember the system, is that the "geniuses" Skum is using and Skum himself have no idea how computers worked back in the early days of computers. The system COBAL was the one used, and there was no way to program those early machines to accept certain dates or empty dates. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/social-security-doge-100-150-year-olds-cobol-elon-musk/ https://www.wired.com/story/elon-musk-doge-social-security-150-year-old-benefits/

From personal experience, decades ago when I first got a computer that used floppy disks that could only hold 150K data, I used a program that defaulted dates to nonexistent numbers. And it drove me nuts, so I ended up resorting to paper and pencils. Another personal experience: when I first began working in 1973, I got to be really good at arithmetic as there was no such thing as a calculator for each employee. Even in the 90s, I had a branch manager tell me that I didn't need a computer to do my job.

In other words, Skum is a computer illiterate as are those 20-yr-olds. And in his world, it is unthinkable that many government systems are OLD because Congress refused to allow the agencies to get new technology.

He’s a puppet. He’s gonna do whatever they want him to do.

He’s a christian nationalist and not a follower of Christ and his actions scream that truth daily!

But one day, him, Musk, and Trump will reap what they sow. It’s just a matter of time.

That’s OK. As long as our children and their children have what we had. A song by Mike and The Mechanics, Silent Running, is where we are. “Teach the children quietly for some day sons and daughters will rise up and fight, while we stood still.”

We are trying now, but where was I when this was coming, the signs were there in early 2000’s. The hatred of Obama, birtherism, accusations of Muslim, not Christian (neither is a bad thing), but FELON accused him of horrible things: lying, cheating - all the things that FELON did/does!

Every time a baby is born in Louisiana, where Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson handily won reelection last year, there’s more than a 60% chance taxpayers will finance the birth through Medicaid.

In Republican Rep. David Valadao ’s central California district, 6 out of 10 people use Medicaid to pay for doctor visits and emergency room trips.

And one-third of the population is covered by Medicaid in GOP Sen. Lisa Murkowski’s Alaska, one of the nation’s costliest corners for health care.

Understand this mother fucker ;; Here is the deal: You fuck with Medicaid,, not only is America going to shit in your oatmeal and piss in your orange juice,,, you will be looking over your shoulder thr rest of your life, and you will not be reelected to clean urinal cakes in county jail
