"President Trump issued an executive order expanding the power of the United States DOGE Service (DOGE)." This first sentence may be the most important fact in this article. This proves that Elon Musk is in charge. Trump, who may be suffering from early onset Alzheimer's defers totally to Musk (and to Putin). The statement by Putin to Musk immediately following the election has remained in my head: "Remember to tell Trump that he owes us!" Now, for what would Trump now owe them?
Elon Musk is making thoughtless changes to our government without any concern for their repurcussions. He does not care. As long as he causes far-reaching chaos to our government, he does not care about America's well-being. Of course, neither does Putin.
The resistance is developing, but it's clear that Trump is delegating powers to Musk that Trump, himself, does not possess. Since the President, himself, does not have the constitutional power to simply wipe out agencies created by Congressional actions nor to wipe out the funding Congress has given those agencies, he certainly can't delegate to Musk the power to do those things.
I fear that the "richest man in the world" and his musketeers are going to need to be jailed for "contempt of court" if they continue to defy clear court orders and injunctions. Will the courts have the courage to do so? I hope so, and that the military, in deference to the Constitution to which they are pledged (rather than the President), will be their vehicle in such actions. I hear Guantanamo Bay is already prepared.
Trump/Musk's unprecedented actions must be met with unprecedented actions on the parts of the courts and the military if we are to stop the total destruction of the United States Government as created by the founders in the Constitution.
