I’m genuinely curious if Trump is going to throw Elon to the dogs and claim he’s the hero for thwarting him.   It seems like the sort of cynical ego driven play he would pull.

ehhhhhh, that post is kinda fearmongery. but if you're that worried about elon robbing your account, call your bank and issue a stop payment against any future ACH debits from the treasury.

Did you read the comment where they said “not saying he’ll take anything from your bank account…”?

he’s accessing information he has absolutely no business accessing. It’s not “fearmongery” to offer advice to protect your assets if you’re inclined to 

the post is most likely talking more to federal employees than anyone else

So, lemme get this all straight.... this whole treasury thing is being pushed by a handful of kids, possibly even just one on site, and all the employees, grown ass adults, knowing this shouldn't be happening, instead of curb stomping a bitch, just... let it happen?

I'm confused by the prospect of "doing everything in our power to prevent this" when it'd only take a couple of folks to tie a kid to a chair.

Idk. Like yeah, maybe there's more muscle on hand, or some other means of threatening etc. But. Would've hoped somebody would grow a spine, kick some fuckers out and barricade doors.

i read the comment. the op is spitting fearmongery bs. there's absolutely no reason to fear for your personal account balance because of what's going on. nobody's coming for approved and paid out federal tax returns unless an audit is performed first. there are still -a lot- of rules in place to prevent this. and even then, you can deny the payments with a simple phone call to your bank.

going thru the process of changing your account number because of this fear is an unnecessary, tedious, tinfoil-wrapped oof.

The comment literally said they are most concerned about poor handling of data more than theft from within.

China's new tariffs on American oil leads to significantly less demand for oil companies to drill baby drill.

Dumbasses.

good. 

our sector of mother earth can't take much more. mother earth, in the grand scheme is sick of all our shit. people need to start l'istening'

i say that, because i do hope that this particular pissing contest continues to that renewable resource science/tech/possibilities can get a little push. 

drill baby drill is the fucking dumbest thing. 

off topic, i think drumpf went to the 1st ladies hair plug team.

We’re starting to get the technologies to heal the damage we caused (a promising experiment to re-freeze the poles, COF-999 which sucks up CO2 at an amazing level of efficiency) but it all needs a clean energy transition to stick.  Drill baby drill is spiteful.

why such an obtuse statement?  

people are concerned, and righfully so, and no matter how they take matters into their own hands..is up to them. very disapoint

[OPed]

And so USAID seems destined to be dismantled, with maybe a few remnants transferred to the State Department. No matter that the agency was created, and is funded, by Congress; no matter that its destruction without congressional consent is illegal; no matter that legislators stood outside the doors in protest.

Oh so you’re fine with everything that’s going on even though you have no clue what his intentions on. Go back to wtf you were before coming back here.

Immediately the DoJ released a statement threatening anyone getting in the way of Musk’s goons with getting arrested. Maybe you don’t realize but these are regular non political employees just trying to do their jobs. They take their oath seriously but in the scheme of things they are nobody. They have families to worry about and all that. Idk what action movies you been watching but this is the real world. In real life people that are desk jockeys don’t go around curb stomping people.

I guess when Wacky gets notifications that his data was breached (we all got one of those at least) he just does nothing. 🤷‍♀️

I gotchu, Wacky.

The whole bank account thing is more of a red herring to get people angry about what the real problem is - that Musk and his team have access to the actual disbursement system and can block payments that were already authorized.  Actually changing your account is an arduous process and it can wreck havoc on your ability to pay most bills, not to mention damage your credit report in the process.  It's not something anyone should just do as a precautionary action.  That being said....

The very fact that Musk has access to actual account information is still extremely alarming.  Musk has proven in the past that he is a terrible manager of a tech company, and the fact he's allowing a bunch of unknown jerkoffs to rummage through all that data while having no track record when it comes to implementing best practices and safety and checks should not be lost on anyone.  It doesn't have to be these INCEL douches - all it takes is an enterprising hacker somewhere in suburban America to figure these idiots out and use the uncontrolled breach by Musk as an opportunity to steal data.

It bears repeating:

Elon Musk is looking at your personal data without anyone checking to make sure he's handling it with the utmost security.  That is a golden opportunity for bad actors to come after your money and your identity.

The Alt National Parks Service is a grassroots group of federal employees that formed during the first Trump administration. It started as a resistance against the administration wanting to drill in our National Parks. It has since expanded to include employees from all different branches of federal agencies. Many watching this chaotic shit show unfold in real time. 
 

Again the “fear mongery” post was just simply stating what one can do to protect their assets if they aren’t comfortable with Musk having that type of information. The post went on to further explain that they didn’t think Musk was going to do anything with that information however the main concern was Musk not protecting said information

C.I.A. Sends White House an Unclassified Email With Names of Some Employees

"The list of partial names was provided in an effort to comply with an executive order to trim the federal work force."

Incompetence at its finest. They had no way of apparently sending the list in a classified manner to the office of personal management, so they had no recourse but to do it this way in order to comply with Trump's executive order. Geez louise. What insanity.

Musk needs to be knocked down a few pegs.  If  people start rioting Trump is going to fire him so fuckin fast his head won’t stop spinning until he’s being sentenced by a judge.

Personally, I'm glad I've always done the 'send the refund check directly to me' thing regardless of what anyone thinks about the bank warning. I may have to wait a little bit to get anything but there's no info on any of my accounts floating around either. 

Someone needs to find out where Vance is hiding most of the time and who he is hanging out with. Yes, the VP is usually quiet in the background during most administrations but he's the shithead that wrote the intro to Project 2025 after all. Everyone watching Shitler destroying all these things and Husk gutting our info systems, what is Vance destroying?

What I'm hearing is everyone's on board with punching nazis in theory, but not in practice.

I've seen a lot of rhetoric about fighting fascism tooth and nail, but that "fight" is looking pretty impotent these days.

You do realize people were out protesting so much today, right? Were you? Otherwise, it seems foolish to say that the fight is impotent. Since you're using those kind of terms, stop expecting premature ejaculation.

So get a group of like minded people and fight the way you think is best?

not everybody. i've been fighting it since november. there are so many things you can do....just in your own community. don't have to curb stomp. don't have to yell and scream. sometimes, just making sure someone has a meal and shoes and a jacket, is enough to piss off the absolute right kind of fascist.  and i'm just getting started. 

i'm not tooting my own horn, i'm saying enough bitching is enough. time for action. time to be useful. 

iono...try it.
