Just as all the Inuit want Greenland to bear part of the US and Canadians want to be the 51st state. These are all settled facts and Trudeau etc. are anti democratic in denying Canadians, Greenlanders and Gazans the right to be part of a Greater America. (Although I am not sure that being resident on American real estate give residency rights, let alone citizenship rights. I am just waiting for Trump to say
Who is going to do the arresting? Trump has already secured puppets in those positions.
Sadly, when Republicans have a say in it, not even that is true.
That's certainly a popular opinion. Donald Trump might very well be just the designated jester, intended only to distract from more sinister operations and to exhaust the nation's capacity for outrage.
But Trump will just pardon whomever he's told to pardon.
It's not as easy as that, since Musk is arguably acting under color of law. He is a designated "special government employee," and as such has authority granted by the President. However, that doesn't mean he is authorized to do some of the things he has attempted, since those are controlled by laws passed by Congress. Neither the President nor anyone else in the administration can simply ignore the law. The terms of government service in any capacity hinge upon the power granted. Not every federal employee or appointee requires Senate confirmation, but there are laws preventing the ad hoc wielding of power without a suitable office (and possibly confirmation requirement) attached. Congress exactly foresaw a President's desire to evade Congressional oversight by creative hiring and appointment.
A pardon can be granted any time after the operative offense is committed and may forestall a trial. If the perpetrators are not shamed by the behavior itself, it is unlikely they will be shamed by public response to their behavior.
Equally clear is the avowed goal of reforming (and largely eliminating) the traditional organs of power in the U.S. executive branch. President Trump has no intention of behaving like any other President, and no qualms about saying so. He is utterly uncowed by the public response to his behavior and has made no secret of his intention of making Institutionalists of both parties cry. The less addled of the administration (i.e., the architects and facilitators of Project 2025) are fully on board with this. Their explicit plan is to burn it all to the ground.
Not to worry, The Party won't allow any coverage of that.

Unfortunately stupid votes.
I wonder if the CEO of Politico is happy that his prayer for Trump to win was answered....
I’m well aware of the commonwealth Education Department. I also worked for some years in the Victorian Education Department. All decisions worth making when it comes to the education of children happens at the state level.
Well of course, there are no women according to Trump--just girls! And the younger the better....just ask his bf Epstein...oh wait, he mysteriously died...
I suppose that we may as well count this as yet more proof that your overall position on the subjects at hand here is extraordinarily weak, to put it nicely.
To the contrary, nothing they do surprises me anymore. They're a literal cult. They'll lap up everything the cult leader says, no matter how detrimental, cruel, stupid, or self-contradictory. There's no depth they won't sink to, nothing they won't defend or excuse. The National Socialist Donald's America Party will use swastikas at a rally next and their faithful will insist Drumpf intended them as Hindu symbols of luck. Or Dump or Musk will do the Nazi salute again and the audience will respond in kind.
