Where the Second Amendment freaks at??
Not a good look... private police? What the fuck is this nonsense... Ayn Rand libertarian fanfiction?
What the fuck is this nonsense…
The first brownshirts is what it is.
Someone smarter than me said something like "History doesn't repeat, it echoes."
It's sure as fuck echoing right now and folks need to fucking listen.

Not alone regarding to US politics, the whole world eerily feels in a similar turmoil like 100 years ago. Let's hope enough people recognize the overture of the symphony of horrors that is attached to it. Let's hope we can turn it around before the true demons of our past come to haunt us all.
That's 100% what this is. Once they get an unconditional pardon, it gives them free reign to literally murder anyone. Not in self defense, but proactively.
Working for the clampdown.
Every Hitler needs a Gestapo.
I don't think Ayn Rand would have supported this bullshit. The talentless "businessmen" who wear the trappings of wealth but produce nothing were always the villains in her books. Plus she was vehemently anti-theocracy.
oh, wearing your child around your vital organs doesn't seem like enough of a bullet stopper anymore?
Elon trusts his private security? If I was as public a dipshit as him, I certainly wouldn't pay people to be armed around me.
Recent article that explains why the US Marshals would be a useful landmark:
Here’s One Big Way You’ll Know if We’re in a Presidential Dictatorship
The fundamental weakness of courts is that their orders have force only if people, including government officials, obey them.
…
[T]he increased procedural complexity of criminal contempt proceedings combined with the specter of presidential pardons renders criminal contempt an improbable recourse for the judiciary.
That leaves civil contempt, which, as noted, authorizes the imposition of fines, imprisonment, or both to compel compliance with judicial orders.
…
[T]he primary traditional function of the U.S. Marshals Service is to act as the enforcement arm of the courts.
…
Should the attorney general order the marshals and BOP not to enforce a judicial contempt order against an administration official, that would be an open repudiation of the rule of law and a plain declaration of presidential dictatorship.
UAV...?
death threats against Musk.
STOP THREATENING!!!
The Muskapo
Musk-eteers
Boooo
But only because I love the movie, the Three Musketeers
It does add a different interpretation to: "All for one" [... and we can skip the rest of the quote]
Only a matter of time before they start randomly shooting people who they don't like the look of.
I thought we were already well past that point.
Remember: with enough planning and initiative, you can make the world a better place.
They should wear long leather trench coats might as well skip on to it properly.
Just a reminder for everyone to follow and repost @ElonJet@mastodon.social.
