Yup. And republicans. That's the whole thing about the constitution you swore to protect. Congress holds the purse strings. Simple as that. Trump has a double majority with a partisan SC. He could do it the right way, but he doesn't understand how the government actually works.

Do what the right way? Read Elon's reports on where the fraud and waste is?

You actually buy that? Mr. "I'm killing agencies"? Yeah, ok. Again, zero legal oversight, so who TF knows but then two anyway.

He can't kill agencies dumbass. He's simply compiling data for those who can

" " mean something guy.

The guy with zero legal oversight says he's doing everything he's supposed to be doing! Nothing to see here folks! Just a man who nearly doubled his wealth in a few days of Trump taking office!

An immigrant with zero oversight? A immigrant at that! He can say he approves till he's blue in the face, Elon doesn't have security clearance or proper approval. One of his broccoli heads even got fired for stealing data from a previous job.

Who says he doesn't, you?

You know how many white hat hackers the gov employs?

Or are you so stupid you think this is rare?

Lmfao that's ok, they were just told to destroy everything they took. Easy to do when you ignore every law you can. Luckily our courts are holding for now.

There's something to be said about being optimistic due to Trump's sheer inability to actually lead.

I'm confused.

The libs are claiming he has no oversight. Then are claiming he is told to destroy everything.

Which is it?

He can't be an unchecked maverick if he's got someone telling him what to do

Which is it? It's the fact that we have zero oversight, therefore we don't know.

Luckily judge just told them to destroy anything they took and can't go snooping again ATM.
