The US government just passed this garbage and I want to explain why our #tax dollars are wasted around the concept of "time suck".
S. 1383: #Veterans Accessibility Advisory Committee Act of 2025 #Timesuck is when #law justifies the existence of Government as a vehicle to maintain funding while using time and layers of more government to waste more time and #tax money.
The language of this disgrace explains the creation of a review board to improve facilities. Not benefits.
Think about it
Basically, this law explains how the US government creates more government to justify #Congress being paid to do nothing for decades.
S. 1383: Veterans Accessibility Advisory Committee Act of 2025? Worthless. Here are the final words in this #Veterans law proving the waste, fraud and abuse.
"The Advisory Committee shall terminate on the date that is 10 years after the date of the enactment of this Act."
Perhaps it's time to simply eat the wealthy so we can shit them out and then lie about it and focus on solving #immigration in #Congress by capping federal #immigration funds to every US state. #NoKings !
Republicans are now claiming in #Congress that millions of terrorists and drug dealers have flooded the United States in the past 5 years but we don't see any of these criminals caught and deported. Where are these millions of hard core criminals that #Texas allowed to enter the #UnitedStates? #NoKings !
#Republicans claim to #Congress that they are enforcing the immigration laws yet #ICE is not obtaining bench warrants for ANY of it's activity.
More bold faced lies from the Pedophile Protectors. #ICEout #NoKings !
Thinking about the testimony to #Congress today, it occurred to me that Republicans want to protect #ICE agents by locking up #DHS targets in detention centers.
The entire cabinet and Trump should be removed from office by the US military for acts of #sabotage against targeted States or more innocent US citizens will be murdered in the streets by what they call "Immigration Raids". #Congress #ReneeGood #AlexPretti #NoKings !
President Rage Bait has now broadcast his attack on #jacksmith and the sworn testimony to #congress.
An open display of tyranny directing the #DOJ to continue it's rape and murder of the citizens for the enjoyment of their tech billionaire overlords and MAGA loyalists. #NoKings !
Just as a U.S. congressional delegation was wrapping up its trip to Denmark meant to ease tensions over Trump’s Greenland aspirations, the President escalated them with a tariff threat. “I think it is easy for people back in the United States to see these headlines and to dismiss it as a show, as pure saber rattling,” says Rep. Sarah McBride (D-Del). “But I cannot stress for people enough how serious people in Greenland and Denmark are taking this.” Read more from @ https://flip.it/_kah_3 #Greenland#Trump#Congress#Denmark#Europe#Diplomacy#NATO
Given the horrifying nature of the DOGE (you have no idea how much I loathe typing that) cuts by which Musk is effectively conduction a rolling shutdown of the US government, the Trump administration's attempts to either take control of, or bankrupt prominent American universities for blatantly ideological reasons, and news that Trump intends to sign an executive order to shut down the Department of Education, there's a conversation we have to start having now that I've run out of time to avoid.
I don't know how to say this without sounding like I'm employing conspiratorial hyperbole to at least some portion of the people reading this, but there really are a whole bunch of obscenely wealthy, mostly-white, mostly-Anglo nazis working together to transform our world into a dystopian fascist hellscape to increase their own power over us and preserve their way of life in the face of anticipated uprisings. And a lot of these guys, particularly those concentrated in the American tech sector, are extremely weird Bond movie villain types with horrifying ideas about how to run a society, but enough money to give them a try anyway. I get that to some of you that sounds exactly like a conspiracy theory, but let me assure you that these are all established facts, discussed sporadically in mainstream media outlets; even if those outlets are rarely willing to criticize rich people, or use the word "fascism" in order to explain what those facts mean.
These guys meet in the open to talk about shaping the future of our species in places like Davos and Aspen, they buy elections on live television, and then they go on podcasts to openly admit they want to end democratic rights, destroy regulatory authority over their activities, and transform the places we live into various types of dictatorships run by guys like them. I get that this is a lot to take in, but I should hope that watching a weird little nazi freak like Elon Musk spend $300M to elect Trump, immediately join the government, and start taking a chainsaw to every department that isn't the military or the fascist police state, might make it easier to consider the evidence in retrospect.
Look, this is a big subject; in my studies I've found the overt, direct influence of ideologically reactionary billionaires with fascist, dystopian, and religious agendas intersecting with topics like climate catastrophe, mass surveillance, reproductive rights and the natalism movement, what I would describe as a literally fucking cult for rich people in the TESCREAL movement, the anti-trans pogrom, the carceral state and forced labor, the assault on protest rights in the Pig Empire, climate change denialism, fascist internet influencers and "independent" media sources on the right, and of course elections and fascist political parties in the Pig Empire - that list is by no means exhaustive, these rich freaks have a lotta fingers in a lotta pies. If you want to understand what's going on with the Trump regime right now, why they're destroying what the right calls "the administrative state," why they're seizing control of higher education, and why expanding the powers of the fascist police state in case you get any ideas about stopping them however, then the conversation about weird fascist billionaires with horrible tech-nazi plans has to start somewhere. Let's start with the 2024 election, and the specific group of fascist tech bro billionaires that got Trump into power, and how their stated agendas line up perfectly with Project 2025 and match what we've seen the Trump regime do so far in disturbing ways.
This thirty minute video is a few months old now, and was produced after Trump was elected, but before Der Führer took office. The video is fast paced, and informative; focusing on the activities and recorded statements of hyper-reactionary tech billionaires in the Trump regime's immediate orbit, and how those actions and stated intentions are expressed in Trump's fascist agenda. The presenter names names too, including Trump, JD Vance, Peter Thiel, Marc Andresson, Elon Musk, David Sacks, Brian Armstrong, Ben Horowitz, Balaji Srivisan, and an absolute freak named Curtis Yarvin, who extremely online folks may know as Mencius Moldbug. What the producer of the video couldn't possibly have known, but we know now, is how much of Trump's destructive, authoritarian, and quite frankly illegal attempts to reshape America into his personal fascist autocracy would align perfectly with a plan written by Peter Thiel's pet fascist "philosopher" and a man these right wing extremist, weirdo billionaires literally call "the prophet." No, I am not making that up. Like I said, it's a big conversation and one we're going to keep having on an ongoing basis now that Trump appears to be speedrunning Yarvin's how to build a dictatorship checklist. This should get you started:
Dark Gothic MAGA: How Tech Billionaires Plan to Destroy America by Blonde Politics
Keeping in mind that we're trying to prove as many of these claims as we possibly can before my fingers fall off, here's a very short Raw Story article that FBI Director Kash Patel lied to cover up the Department of Justice's Epstein cover up (I told you this stuff was Russian nesting dolls of fuckery) under oath a few months ago.
Allegations fly as FBI head's past comments haunt him: 'Kash is part of a massive coverup'
"After the DOJ released millions more Epstein files ahead of the weekend, political analysts and observers began circulating an earlier Patel quote that they see as contradictory to the facts.
Under oath, Patel said, "There’s no credible information that Jeffrey Epstein trafficked minors."
But ex-Obama staffer Tommy Vietor claims that statement means Patel must be in on a cover-up.
"It is impossible to square the information in the latest Epstein files release with these comments by Kash Patel," Vietor wrote. "Kash is part of a massive coverup."
Quite frankly this is cowardly, and even somewhat incompetent reporting by Raw Story. The fact that Kash Patel perjured himself under oath before Congress isn't just "a thing some people" are saying - there's a video included in the article of Patel doing exactly that during his testimony. He said there is no evidence Epstein trafficked minors, and in the very filed the DoJ released we have reams of witness testimony from Epstein victims that he did in fact, traffic minors. Testimony is evidence, that's literally how the law works. Pam Bondi and Todd Blanche lie just to breathe on TV about the Epstein case, but Patel was the guy they sent out there to do it under oath; because he's an neophyte dipshit who has no idea that now makes him legally liable. There's also an embarrassing typo in the story, when the author says Kash made this statement in 2015, rather than 2025 (a few months ago) like he actually did.
Which brings up another obvious question - if any random person with a search bar and a minute to watch Patel talk, can prove the Director of the FBI lied under oath, and the only purpose for that would be to protect Epstein associates and literal co-conspirators in his pedophile human trafficking operation, why isn't that front page news?
And that my friends, is what I mean about the tone of our society's response, lead by our ruling classes and the influencers they control, not matching the severity of literally anything about the Epstein case. The FBI director lying his ass off under oath would be news even if it were about parking tickets, but since it's about protecting rich people who have either done sexual assault crimes (including against minors) or happily conspire with such, it's absolutely mind blowing that more people in our media don't care about this. In fact, it's a little suspicious.
More importantly, all of this is just another brick in the wall of evidence demonstrating that Trump, his Justice Department, and indeed his entire administration is engaging in a criminal conspiracy to cover up actual crimes revealed in the Epstein files. In addition to all the shady influence pedaling and reputation washing going on in there.
