Trump/Musk/Billionaires/MAGA the entire Federal Government is Fraud/Waste/Abuse

"This who own the country ought to govern it,"
 John Jay  ELON MUSK

The stalking horse the Republicans used for 50 years has been to claim they only want to eliminate Fraud/Waste/Abuse the corollary being if you are against Republican governance you are axiomatically for Fraud/Waste/Abuse.

What I have written about for years on this blog is for people to understand the Fraud/Waste/Abuse is cover for the destruction of the Social Safety net and the elimination of the American Dream.  Republicans and MAGA do not believe any American should ever get to retire and do not believe in an autonomous federal bureaucracy.  MAGA wants a government comprised of fanatics completely loyal to Trump and Musk (and their successors) who doles out government money to their friends and brutally cuts off funding for liberals and Democrats, and any program which they find against their interests.

Look at Elon's vile transparent lies about what he's uncovered in the Social Security administration.  It's all part of the plan where Republicans steal social security and then send it to the compliant states that enforce MAGA doctrine and deny it to those who resist their tyrannical dictates.  Your eligibility will be determined completely by your fealty to Trump/Musk. 

White people have been conditioned for decades to believe the Government is the problem, so as Musk and Trump hack off huge chunks of the US Treasury they will uncritically accept this as being good.  They've been told for 50 years the US Government is their enemy and while under Republican Regimes it most assuredly is but, what Republicans and Reactionary Leftists have done is a fascist inversion and placed the blame on the Democratic Party.

America has No Kings
DonOld Trump is a Traitor
You see it don't you?  Under Democratic Presidents Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, and Joe Biden the rightwing propaganda machine and the Corporate Media go into high gear blasting lies and wholly made-up fraudulent "scandals" to undermine a Democratic Administration.  They become silent when a Republican is in office.  Rightwing propagandists on Faux, rightwing trolls on social media call everything Tyranny under Democratic officials and work hand-in-glove with Republican administrations.  Elon Musk is everything Republicans have claimed George Soros is...  Every accusation against President Obama Republicans made is an  action being done by Traitor Trump.

Now as Elon Musk and his cadre of co-conspirators hollow out Federal agencies it isn't with the idea of eliminating them but with the idea of staffing them with hard-core conservative zealots who will work to stop any potential future Democratic administration or progressive legislation.  As we saw with President Biden, the Supremacist Court and the rightwing minions who undermined his programs weren't blamed for their failure. Nor was uber-leftist cutie pie Kirsten Sinema for voting against Democratic legislation over and over and over.  No.  President Biden was blamed.  It was the same with President Obama.

The MAGA goal is to destroy the Federal Government at least the parts which help people because The Federal Government the Billionaires and MAGA want is one comprised of two things;  a fervent ever rapacious domestic law enforcement apparatus crushing and quashing domestic dissent and a robust military ready to extort minor powers and threaten our closest allies into obedience.  

Everything else is superfluous.
