It’s always been about greed! Follow the money. Any hackers out there able to track tRump & Musk wealth increases? Hope the Pentagon has a few brass who remember Morse Code. Since Musk has USA computer control, may be only way to issue orders. Remember movie Independence Day.

@dechardin.bsky.social · Feb 5

The beacon on the hill that was the light of all nations has gone out. We shall never see its like again. Hate has won the day. Cruelty dominates. Greed is now our god.

They have the whole country’s treasury in their malicious and psycho hands. The biggest data breach in history. A national security mega emergency.

Friday Night Massacre... Saturday Night Special.

@flashback20448.bsky.social · Feb 5

On top of all that, Elon Musk is recreating apartheid in the USA.

1000 percent worse

The FBI still has guns, right? If anybody ever had the power not to comply with unlawful orders, it's these guys.

KnapsackBum · Feb 5

How do you fight, STUPIDITY.

@janettes-999.bsky.social · Feb 5

That’s because FOTUS is clearly more lawless and corrupt than Nixon. We just experienced the Friday Night Purge! It’s a night that will go down in infamy.

Mesak · Feb 5

This is so hard. But I have to correct one thing. Trump isn’t acting like a king, he’s acting like a deranged dictator. Modern day kings don’t have this kind of power.

Miranda🇵🇷🇺🇸🇺🇦🏳️‍🌈#Resistance · Feb 5

You have the legal expertise to do something about the ongoing coup. Please help!

Mrlky · Feb 5

There are 18 Republican senators up for election in 2 years. Voters must fund their opponents with a national organization #target18 to stop the illegal behavior.

Moldy Teeth · Feb 5

Yes it is. Imagine an emboldened Nixon surviving Watergate. Trump stole hundreds of classified documents, tried to bring down democracy to stay in power, and was re-elected anyway. He feels accountable to no one.

It’s all so so so much worse. And I was around for the Saturday Night Massacre.

@bluegirlredstate.bsky.social · Feb 5

Why have they been completely abandoned by people like Lindsay Graham? Republicans were demanding J6 be investigated and now are silent as the investigators are fired?

If things are as dire as we believe they are for democracy, will some of the GOP congresspeople stand with the Dems? Only a handful are needed to change parties in both chambers, and Congress will retake control over the government. Are GOP lawmakers not seeing the damage to our democracy?

Oralè Resisters Thieves broke into our nations most sensitive information in the US Treasury system: They were not government classified clearances employees: they broke the law.

I think this is a serious question? Where is Garland? Is he still head of the DOJ????

@calle28.bsky.social · Feb 5

CONGRESS HAS POWER. It’s just been MAGA-NI-TIZED inactive. The MINIONS care more about the their political positions, and have caved in to the threats and intimidation. They have power in numbers, but won’t USE IT! What COWARDS!

SIS · Feb 5

You mentioned Katrina tonight and that was a great analogy! I guarantee you that something that dire will happen, sadly with this current potus in charge. Thank you for all your work past and present to uphold the rule of law.

‪EdieC@momsresistance.bsky.social‬ · Feb 5

@msnbc.com @cnn.com Dear Andrew, When Luigi M shot an Ins Ex, a man hunt was executed and with a week his face and all his personal details were front page news. Why hasn't this kind of attention been given to these six individuals who took over our Treasury Dept? Who are these kids?

@Straightgoods · Feb 5

America.You can also thank SCOTUS for Trump thumbing his nose at decency, law, constitution, everything They literally said the president has absolute immunity I wonder what those SCOTUS justices are thinking today, do they have any regrets for unleashing a legally immune tyrant upon the world

And yet, CBS Nightly News has failed to address this in their news, even twice mentioning trump’s good negotiating skills. I realize Paramount wants to be in trump’s good graces as they are desirous of sealing a merger, but I expected more from John Dickerson in this slot.

@siebensiebensieben.bsky.social · Feb 5

Pray and ask God what to do. Then do it. Trump is Anti-Christ - and will be Hitler 2.0 or Putin 2.0 if you don't do something. My advice but also the advice of Mary Mother of Jesus - who works for peace on the world - for example actually told in Medjugorje.

Dr. Jonathan Scherch · Feb 5

We need an opposing plan to counter Project 2025. Should reflect coherent, measured, stiff, resourced actions & outcomes. Proactive rather than merely reactive. Leverage "cancel culture economics". Extra credit homework: make robust plan in 24hrs as if crisis. Include Liz. / GOP allies. #aroused

@jj21.bsky.social · Feb 5

And you still not coming clean on the conspiracy with Russia in 2016. You guys found plenty and the wrong decision not to charge was made. It’s time to speak up.

@workedforfredtrump.bsky.social · Feb 5

When Donald came in the business, he tried to get rid of us, His father’s subcontractors, because he wanted to have those who were more loyal to him; Donald learned from his first term when he didn’t follow his rules and that he needs those who would never get these jobs and owe everything to him.

Francolli · Feb 5

So what are you going to do about it aside from be a talking head on the idiot box?

Nanjde · Feb 5

All I keep thinking about is after Watergate my father saying this was the worst thing we will ever see happen to our govt. If he was still alive, he would never believe this was happening.

Kl0neMan · Feb 5

Yes it is, and thanks to a CORRUPT SCOTUS, the criminality will continue unabated and legally unchecked.

@gjjonesy.bsky.social · Feb 5

Here in the UK we have a King. He’s generally a decent bloke who understands his role. As usual the idiot running riot over there is playing at being King in blissful ignorance and it seems with impunity. The American people have the solution just like we did and France did back in the day

@spencerdow.bsky.social · Feb 5

Would you do business with a bank whose tellers decided to rehire the CEO who organized a violent and hostile attempted heist of that bank? Now, those tellers get to watch the vault and security boxed be stripped clean by their very own Al Capone.

But this has always been the plan of P25,they have a list of 10K+ vetted loyalists ready to go,they have been telling everyone the plan for the past 8yrs.P25 has never been a secret, they have been quite open about their plan to install people in all branches of government.

It’s already to late …Even bill cassidy could have returned to the healthcare community with dignity, now he returns to MAGA cult on all fours a pariah in the healthcare community, so goes all GOP falling in line with Trump,once all his picks are in power, Trump doesn’t need Congress or Senate

American Stevosaurus · Feb 5

Andrew, I have to say I really appreciate all of the detail and context you gave on the wild ride through trump’s many cases (*cough cough guilty). I think it’s important for the patriotic yet non-lawyer and apolitical people like myself to have a barometer for just how crazy this all is. Thank you!

The motivation must be more than simple retribution. There must be a story, facts, unearthed by Jack Smith's team and the FBI investigators that DT wants buried in the deepest salt mine he can find. He is intimidating the entire work force to get it done.

Andrew Darroch · Feb 5

That’s why the Democrat States must file a case to halt all Trump’s EOs, pending determination of a breach of the Constitution’s guarantee to protect States from insurrection and maintain a Republican Form of government. Article IV Section 4 and the 14th Amendment That’s bringing guns to a gunfight

So why are we following the law not breaking down doors at the Treasury when the Trump admin broke the law letting Musk in there in the first place? Why does this law thing only go one way? If there's no law, it's anarchy. Without law, where is the social contract to remain civil?
