While outside groups sue and courts may slowly rule against the administration the people who could do something about it quickly are busy poll testing what they should say/do or actively enabling the looting, destruction, etc.

Trump destroys the people’s house piece by piece, congress collectively shrugs.

Trump removed classified documents and then used them to get rich, congress shrugged and then Supreme Court said it’s fine. They’d probably put their stamp of approval on this too.

Anyone with any foresight could’ve seen where this was going. The whole ‘government of the people, for the people, by the people” is long gone.

OMG Brian. What's to stop all the Epstein Files being sent to the white house.. with that in mind what's to stop darling Bessent at the department of treasury from sending all of our personal information to the white house as well.

I erased the communication, back in January 2025 I commented somewhere that this regimes plan was to "pocket the U.S. Treasury". A Substack subscriber using the handle Elon Musk @elonmusk +- responded YES.

To broaden it out a bit, there are a whole bunch of laws that are basically going unenforced now. I actually see a huge opportunity for the next department of Justice to go after accountability. I'm thinking of the foreign agent registration act, the foreign corrupt practices act, certain aspects of tax law, even tariff enforcement.

I saw that Trump seems to have stolen the Resolute Desk as well. I don't think it'll require super creative prosecution to deal with that one.

How will that improve affordability for the average American?

Asking for lazy fuckers Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer.

Not to sound negative but honestly what the hell do you think us all readers can do about any of this?! Nothing.

As much as all of this makes me feel ill, we’re screwed because both parties have been feckless for years because of their corporate overlords. I don’t see the Democratic party doing anything of worth to stop this because we have such powerful leadership from Schumer & Jefferies. The leaders we deserve…
