few months he's purged the government of independent watchdogs filled the most powerful offices with personal loyalists he's commanded them to go after his opponents we're seeing the use of fear and intimidation against the political opposition unlike anything i think in our republic's history and he's so consumed by
his efforts to secure revenge and to crush his enemies and, you know, conquering Greenland, that he's doing nothing for the people who elected him. His entire domestic agenda is tax breaks for the wealthy, rounding up immigrants, revenge and centralizing as much power as he can in the presidency.

It's incredibly unpopular. I think that there's even a significant amount of the MAGA movement that hates what Elon Musk has been empowered to do. You know, you got the richest man in the world who spent $300 million to elect this president being given the keys to the kingdom, unfettered access to sensitive personal information of Americans. And the incompetence

of firing tens of thousands of people and then realizing that, you know, they fired the folks who protect the nuclear weapons and they fired the folks who protect us from Ebola and they fired the folks who manned the veterans crisis hotline and they're scrambling to rehire them.

And it is really alarming that they talk about social security in this way in particular, and Musk talking about it as a Ponzi scheme, Because it betrays that they are serious about going after Social Security.

They are the richest and most elitist and most powerful people in the history of the planet. And they have this like anti-elite populist shtick, but what are they doing? Again, it's the whole agenda is tax breaks for the wealthy, rounding up immigrants, revenge and power.
