He's joking, of course.

The " #billionaire class" does not exist. #Capitalists are the problem. Most of the country's capitalists, & the #wealthy #corrupt #politicians who pander to them, are not billionaires.
@GottaLaff
We need the names.
ALL the names.
I would hope that the worse this all gets, the shorter it will last. And then we must have a reckoning of all the #Corrupt enablers.
"The #Trump Dept of #Justice asserted... the President’s removal power is so all-encompassing that he could fire all female agency heads...
“Could the President decide that he wasn’t going to appoint or allow to remain in office any #female heads of agencies or any heads over 40 years old?” Judge Karen Henderson [asked]
...
“I think that that would be within the President’s constitutional authority under the removal power,” he responded"

Purim in the second term of the #Ahasuerus / #Haman administration:
Purim calls on us to emulate Esther, our model for saving communities threatened by the #corrupt #tyrant and his scheming, evil counselor. Our tradition demands that we intervene on behalf of #refugees, #asylumseekers, #LGBT, #women, #Ukraine, #veterans, #federalemployees, and all those targeted by #hate.

As it was then, so it is today.
In an attempt to make an #oligarchy or #dictatorship by our arrogant, #corrupt leaders, I truly believe we are watching the death of #capitalism to the extreme like we have known in the #usa as the entire world now just shifted.
#china just picked up #canada and #europe opportunistically and gutted the US energy markets.
We will either live in hell, or resemble a more socialist #economy and never trust extreme capitalism again.
I hope for the latter with all my heart.

Killing People Through Corruption: More Examples from Aviation.
Some of the assault on governing institutions comes from ignorance & zeal. Some is just #corrupt. Together this will lead to #deaths...

"For decades, the reigning outlook in the #aviation world has been, “What’s our Plan C, in case Plans A & B go wrong? And what’s Plan D, after that?”...
Now the reigning #Doge attitude has changed to, “I wonder what this wire does? Let’s snip it & find out.”"
The #US is starting to resemble #russia in the '90s, with #corrupt #oligarchs grabbing whatever they can. While in the '90s this was done by buying old #soviet companies, today the money is made through crypto #scams and massive #government deals.

SEC Drops Charges Against Chinese Billionaire After He Pumps $30 Million Into Trump’s Crypto Scheme
Dictatorship. Whatever justice you thought would be available after voting for "grab 'em by the pussy," it'll cost you.
And it will be an auction. Justice is now paying and shaking hands.

Elon Musk Casually Admits DOGE Chaos Was All One Big Mistake
#ElonMusk had an infuriating defense for wrecking the #government.

Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) -National Airspace Defense Programs
URGENT- NATIONAL SECURITY THREAT
I work(ed) for the #FAA #NationalDefense Programs (#NDP). My position is/was a national security critical-designated job that was supposed to be exempted from the massive (and unlawful) firings of probationary employees.
On Saturday morning at 12:43AM CST, while I was actively working on an extremely important and classified project in response to a credible threat to America's national security, I was fired.
Before I was fired, the official #DOGE #Facebook page started harassing me on my personal Facebook account after I criticized #Tesla and #Twitter. Less than a week later, I was fired, despite my position allegedly being exempted due to national security.
For those who do not know, #FAA #NDP is tasked with protecting the National Air Space from threats such as missiles, enemy #drones, #aircraft used as #weapons (think 9-11), and so forth.
FAA NDP is a small, yet critical part of protecting the #American public and many of our border states that are at risk of attack from our foreign adversaries such as #China and #Russia.
In March 2024 - I was recruited from my job as Legislative Director at the DC Government to the FAA NDP for the purpose of working on a critical national defense project and in response to a grave and credible threat to the American Air Space.
While working for the FAA NDP, I served as the FAA Lead to the DoD for Open Mission Systems and Data Rights on an urgent project underway in response to a credible national defense threat to America's National Air Space.
When DOGE fired me, they turned off my computer and wiped all of my files without warning. I had just finished a classified meeting at Hill AFB in SLC and was on my way home when I was fired. I was also scheduled to be at Hanscom AFB this upcoming week for additional briefings.
I will be appealing my termination based on political retaliation - which happened in the same unsigned form letter others received - and which my boss and FAA leadership appear to have had no idea of, thought was exempted, and vehemently disagreed with.
My boss and FAA leadership had actively advocated for my position to be excluded from DOGE terminations due to the grave national security implications of my work and believed that such an exemption had been granted.
I had also received excellent performance evaluations and even received a valuing for performance pay raise in January as the FAA is one of the only federal agencies that gives pay raises based on merit and performance.
I decided over the weekend that I want to talk publicly about what happened - especially the harassment I received from DOGE on my personal social media accounts prior to my being fired simply for criticizing Tesla and Twitter (X).
I’m also deeply concerned about DOGE's disregard of the national security implications of my termination.
I believe that the public has a right to know that America's national security has been made less safe"
this is so wrong, #Trump is the enemy from within
what is even worse, the competent in #government can easily find a new better paid job in #private (#corrupt or not #corrupt) #companies, some such as #Snowden in his biography explicitly states that he went from #gov to #private and back, because he could not stand the #corruption
He actually abstained from higher pay and better living standard at #private #companies (gov subcontractors, so he still worked for the government but as a private company charging manyfold for the same work) to actually serving the people with less pay, as his parents did as well
The real victims of #EricAdams #NYC #corrupt #bargain might go to #Gitmo. We aren’t talking enough about the real victims in the shocking quid pro quo that’s likely to end the #criminal case against New York’s corrupt Mayor Eric Adams. His promise to allow President #Trump #immigration #cops free rein in America’s largest city is #terrorizing essential New Yorkers that their mayor should be protecting. https://www.inquirer.com/opinion/commentary/eric-adams-justice-ice-raids-20250216.html?int_promo=newsletter#democracy #ruleofaw #AttorneyGeneral #maga #corruption #legalresearch
Before modern civil service, "whoever won the presidency always got to fire everyone & appoint his own people... Much of the world still relies on such #patronage systems, & they are both #corrupt & corrupting. #Politicians hand out job appointments in exchange for #bribes... Patronage creates bad #government & bad services, because it means govt employees serve a patron, not a country or its constitution."

The #Massachusetts #statepolice is one of the most #corrupt organizations. The department has been plagued with constant scandals, even after leadership was gutted and replaced.
Here's yet another example of illegal activity. This #StateTrooper was caught *shoplifting* golf balls from multiple Target stores. Unquestionably this guy needs to be in jail and banned from any #publicsafety position.
He shoplifted over 20 times last year.
