If this arrest doesn’t happen, democracy is one step closer to the grave.
A lot of shit has happened to destroy democracy so far (has anyone been keeping a list?), but if billionaires see that they can now buy votes, nothing will stop them from doing it over and over again. We will be Russia.
and its becoming blatant and bold
Muskrat isn’t doing this for any other reason other than to test and expand the boundaries. It’s challenging the American people … if he can go this far and allowed to get away with it, then it will become the norm. The fault won’t be that he is doing it … the fault will be the American people who put up with this crap.
I’ve given up on trying to understand dumb American politicians … I’m completely disillusioned and lost hope in the American people.
It’s not a small group of billionaires that will destroy democracy in America … it will be an entire nation of people who just stand aside and watch everything burn without saying or doing a thing about it.
At this point democracy is so far underground that only a Level 17 necronancer can resurrect it
I’ll probably get called a commie but at it’s core, is this version of democracy working well? I’m all for equal rights but if the majority of people are incapable of understanding what it takes to run a nation, how do we trust them to vote someone in who will be a good leader?
If it wasn’t evident enough during his first campaign that he has no interest in enriching the lives of the average american, his first 4 years in office should have proven he is not trying to help out the blue collar class, if Jan 6 wasn’t enough to show he is not a level headed leader then what will? If his second term starting off with trying to start trade wars wasn’t enough, then at what point are we going to realize an overwhelming amount of people are always going to vote for terrible candidates?
I’m having trouble reasoning to myself that the current system is capable of bringing progress. It’s just constant flipping between a couple parties undoing what the previous administration did, how is this a good thing?
If this arrest doesn’t happen, democracy is one step closer to the grave.
Worry not, most Americans are bravely waiting until they have no options left and literally living in squalor before considering any action
In the last 8+ years I have seen the goal post for action moved so many times, I have lost all hope Americans will actually do something for themselves
I guess you won’t make fun of French people anymore
A lot of people strongly believe that God will protect them from whatever terrible Biblical punishments are going to befall the Liberals, Minorities, and Gays. They seem to forget that the Divine Retribution they are praying for so hard always carries enormous collateral damage. SEE: Ark, Noah’s, also Sodom/Gommorah, also Plagues, Egyptian, etc.
Also, the people who think like this, are actually being evil, so their belief brings their own doom. TLDR: If you’re a cunt who sits back and revels in the suffering of those you don’t like, you aint going to heaven…
I’m at the point where I know he won’t face consequences because he’s rich. But an arrest and trial would at least be sanity.
But an arrest and trial would
be an absolute pony show ending with no conviction.
We only have a criminal justice system for the poors. If you want justice for people like Musk, vigilante is the only option.
Unless…hear me out…he fucks up the comfort zone of the other rich bastards.
Why don’t the poor people just pull themselves up by their bootstraps? Then they too would be rich /s
Trump already announced he plans to prosecute anyone trying to enforce the Hatch Act.
The Hatch Act is what makes this illegal.
It isn’t gonna happen. Nothing happened to Trump, nothing will happen to Musk. Too rich, too powerful. Justice is only for the pariahs.
That was a case of civilian, extrajudicial sentencing. Nothing to do with the justice system.
Arrest Of Elon Musk For Felony Vote Buying
YES! FINALLY!
Demanded In Wisconsin
Dude, don’t tease me like that
Won’t happen. While I think all this institutional resistance is good. All of the lawsuits and judge rulings should only be seen as a way meant to delay. Fascism is here. You don’t unravel it using the existing institutions and systems.
Delay and prepare. Learn who all your neighbors are. Make sure you can contact all of them quickly and that they can contact you. Your neighbors and your coworkers are who you should be organizing with. Talk to them. Find out who might be a target by ICE. Find out which one of them you can’t trust. And of course. Arm yourself.
Elons not getting arrested but we don’t have to let them arrest us either. If there is no justice for Elon we can’t allow anymore injustice to us.
drumpf can’t pardon state felonies, and wisconsin can have musk extradited from any other state….
this has teeth, but of course, he’ll just bribe and blackmail the right people and the prosecutors will decide although a law was broken, it’s best not to prosecute because musk is too cute or some bullshit….
at any rate, it’s pretty good….
Fucking do it already. His approval ratings are pretty low right now (billionaire approval ratings, fucking gross), so I feel like MAGA might not come to his defense this time.
I feel like MAGA might not come to his defense this time.
Hope this isn’t wishful thinking. Trump thinks his son is a l33t hacker for being able to turn a laptop on. Musk on the other hand owns a major social media platform and has access to skilled technicians and programmers, as well as huge server farms which he doubtless uses to analyse voter behaviour and find the weak points where efforts should be focused in order to have most impact on electoral choices.
Trump certainly understands how essential to the disinfo effort Musk is, even though it’s way beyond the grasp of your average MAGA. IMO Trump is not going to abandon Musk in a hurry.
Fucking do it already
Laws are for little people. Nobody in Wisconsin is going to green light this, because nobody has the chutzpah to inconvenience a billionaire.
I feel like MAGA might not come to his defense this time
MAGA isn’t the problem. Corporate media and the Trump AG are the problem.
“chutzpah”
Alright learnt a new word here. Rougly “cojones” it seems but I’m liking it!
I often felt from context it was closer to “hubris”, as “cajones” might just mean brave.
Seriously, who would arrest a billionaire? It seems like he has a suit of armor made of money that everyone won’t touch. If anyone else walked into the federal agencies and did what he did, they would have been arrested.
Aside from his money, he is also politically important now. I think that protects him more than anything else now. But he bought political importance with his money, so it’s related.
Someone who cares about the laws… Fuck this bullshit… Fuck the guy… Fuck the taxes on the normal people being a minor inconvenience for the rich… Equal fucking rights… The only outlet people have for their anger is to protest a company hes the face of… And they are trying to make that into a crime…
It’s been 3 months and this is how far we have fallen…
This country has a lot of issues and it’s… Not just the deep seeded racism or sexist roots
He has a suit of armor, but it’s not made of money.
The armor of baphomet.

The 53-year-old Tesla and SpaceX CEO told Canadian psychologist Jordan Peterson in an interview last July that the decision to build a supercomputer in Memphis evoked references, at least in part, to the Memphis of ancient Egypt and its pantheon of gods.
“Perhaps that’s where our new god will come from,” Musk said.
Feel like this title should’ve been Wisconsin Demands Arrest of… Because holy shit my heart skipped a beat to think something might change :(
Donald Trump, age 76 years, son of Fred and Wilma, said something stupid today.
