Just here for my daily question of: How the fuck does this man have the authority to "order" fucking anything within my government?
The last time a major terrorist attack happened, the government got expansion of powers.
This is preparing for the next 9/11, reichstag-fire style.
And the dems will approve the Enabling Act.
They gladly will, especially if its a reach around in the name of compromise and good faith to the "Actually Just Open Nazis and Bad Faith Liars" party.
And the dems will approve the Enabling Act.
if the patriot act is any indication, yes.
The one person who voted no to the Patriot Act was voted out next election.
Let that be a lesson to all Americans. The one person who voted to protect the freedoms of America was voted out because it looked bad on paper.
He's starving dogs!
Yeah Elon Musk is a sick fuck, though lets be real. We all knew he wasn't above something like this, this is just proving what we all knew about him. It's still horrible though.
This is going to be the thing that gets white people off the train. Being mean to the dogs.
i'd wager good money they ignore it
They didn't give a shit about kristi noam.
If it’s not already a thing we should start a live tracker of Elon’s current or last known whereabouts. For academic purposes.
Like the Elon flight tracker?
Maybe some brave air traffic controller can take one for the team and send his plane into the Atlantic Ocean.
Yes, but I was thinking of a system with more … granularity and resolution. Maybe take the flight tracker and add to it, like noting the color of the vehicle he got in and its plate number. For research. Let’s say it’s to help calculate his efficiency with tax payer dollars.
This is some unhinged shit. Is it the drugs? Is it the Putin?
Can we please stop blaming ‘drugs’ or ketamine specifically, even when joking. This is seriously hurting its reputation and future use as a therapeutic option. It might not feel like a big deal but every time we say this it normalizes it. Not targeting you specifically just trying to call it out any time I see it - thank you.
Putin. Not even once kids.
Poutine though, more than once!
I pray everyday for a poetic Mussolini ending for Musk
Nah, he's cutting corners in bomb detecting dogs, it's gonna be a Carrero Blanco 2 electric boogaloo
Beyond animal cruelty, you NEED bomb sniffing dogs! Holy shit! Do they realize that now potential bombers would have a huge upper hand in carrying explosives into airports? Why don't they say 'well those metal detectors and xray machines are too fancy' and go back to the late 60s when there was a hijacking once every 5.6 DAYS.
That's actually really shocking. I looked it up, and you're correct. Hijackings were extremely common in the 60s and 70s.
They'll still feed the drug sniffing dogs, though.
Why don't they say 'well those metal detectors and xray machines are too fancy'
I'm sure they'll cut maintenance budgets too, it just takes x-ray machines longer to starve
Paging D.B Cooper.
Elon orders government. They said it out loud.
Musk: The fundamental weakness of Western civilization is empathy. The empathy exploit. They're exploiting a bug in Western civilization, which is the empathy response. So, I think, you know, empathy is good, but you need to think it through and not just be programmed like a robot.

Fucking psychopath.
quite literally
That’s definitely something a malignant narcissist would say
So how does it go down when a moral human is forced to respond to this? Curious to get a scenario where an unelected bureaucrat tells you to ignore congress?
Oh well I'm sure the cabinet secretary who oversees TSA will get right on that oh wait she loves killing dogs too
Every time I read something about the USA in the last few weeks I think "Wow that's shitty. How can it get worse?"
In short order, the answer to my question is served up. I find it worse when the victims cannot speak or stand up for themselves. Though horrible things are happening to a wide range of victims at least they can protest, take action etc. The dogs cannot. I only hope that the handlers make sure the welfare of these animals is taken care of despite the order. They do not deserve to be pawns in the MAGA game, but then no one does.
Same here. Since 2016.
There's no such thing as rock bottom. It can always get worse.
Except: death. Total annihilation. Planet im- or exploding. That's the only actual rock bottom there is.

I have an idea for what we could feed those dogs.
Oh lord. The residual ketamine might kill them

Failing to feed and look after animals you are responsible of is animal abuse and illegal.
I thought that we already established that in Magastan "illegal" is only for poor people.

All that's going to happen is the people who the dogs live with will end up buying them food. As if they would starve a member of their family.
Sounds like those dogs should start letting bombs through to me.
Having dog handlers pay for the dogs they need for work is totally in line with having teachers pay for teaching tools.
Yes let’s start starving animals now. Great job Republiscum.
This might blow up in his face. In more than one way.
They want chaos to justify the suspension of all civil rights. Ask me how I know.
