Don't worry, we trust Musk to tell us when there is a conflict of interest - the gop
And Musk is also playing red-light-green-light, so is only running DOGE when people are looking away, so no need to scrutinize that much.
Why are no democrats in congress submitting the "Keep planes in the sky" act to put limitations on government purges? Of course it wouldn't pass, but this is how you draw attention to what they're doing. Democrats are so, so bad at this stuff.
If progressive groups asking them to do something was enough to annoy them, doing something of their own volition is beyond their capabilities.
Unless its asked for by a lobbyist, they're unlikely to care. We have two conservative parties: one that serves interests, and a worse one that serves self-interests.
Because Republicans don't write that sort of shit .Corporations write them for Republicans who then submit them. The corporations generally like what's going on. They're not going to write them for Democrats to submit.
Corporations are picking the corpse of capitalism clean to the detriment of everyone. And having a blast.
Always keep in mind that the american democratic part is a center-right conservative party from virtually any non-US perspective. Contrary to the republicans, which are a christofascist-ultranationalist conservative party. But they're both conservatives. They don't like to work, they just want to make the rich richer.
Now, I should say, in particular the democrats do have plenty individual members who got the right ideas and do the right work. But they are struggling against an old party block that is used to never yanking the chain because they're hte ones benefitting from the status quo, and who are also by now too old to mind fallout from stuff like Trump in office or climate change as they'll die from old age in a few years anyways.
Why won't Republicans do something!?
Seriously.
Sick of this "where are the Dems?!" from mouthbreathers that don't know how the government works at its most basic level.
The Dems hands are tied until enough Republicans break from the Nazis. All the Dems can do is gum up the works a bit (and they are pretty limited there). That's about it.
The only option Congress has to correct this is impeachment...and a hell of a lot of it, because there's a long list of succession, and the first one without an "R" next to his name is #11, and that's RFK Jr.
And then all the corrupt justices that Trump loaded up the judicial with. Not just SCOTUS but all the lower courts.
So yeah...what are Republicans doing, because from here, it looks like they are all cheering this on, and they hold the trifecta.
If the FAA is deemed to not be equivalent anymore to the local air-safety regulators, planes from US-based companies will stop being allowed to fly in the airspace of other countries and planes made in America will not be certified for flying in that airspace or being purchased by companies in those countries until fully checked (at great cost) by a certification authority under the regulatory oversight of a local regulator or one deemed equivalent.
This will quite likely start by the EASA (European Air Safety Agency) not accepting FAA as an equivalent regulator anymore.
And it's not like Boeing is doing well getting safe planes into the air even with the FAA working at full capacity, so it might be time to order more "You're Boeing to die"-shirts from WTYP's merch store.
JFC, then stop paying him for a blue checkmark! It's essentially buying social credit points and billing free speech.
Better yet just stop using Twitter. Go to Bluesky or Mastodon or any other platform that isn't ran by a Nazi
Should would be sad if one of Musk’s planes were to have an accident because of this.
Their point is to try to kill as many of us as possible.
What are the dems going to do when they won't even name the problem?
Revolt!
