   #Musk had still not figured out the #legal structure for his effort or how it would work. He & #Ramaswamy …tried to answer fundamental questions, pressure-testing ideas w/prospective cabinet members & budget experts.

   It was “spaghetti against the wall,” per 1 person in touch w/Musk at the time.

   In the wk after the election, Smith gave Musk a presentation that amounted to a basic budget & civics lesson, explaining how #Congress appropriated funds & noting major items like defense & health care.

   I'm sorry. Which stripped agency full of Trump loyalists provided the data?

   For crying out loud, the USGS has "Gulf of America" on its earthquake map!

   We cannot trust anything from any agency or any politician in this government, and that is extremely sad to say.

   "Fingers crossed. Hand not on Bible. Didn't mean it. Neener-neener. You're so stupid, you didn't notice I was a Nazi all along. Words mean nothing. Except in court, where my lawyers lie to stupid judges while I threaten them, their families, their clerks, the jury, and anyone I feel like, with impunity. Because I'm smart, and you're not. You're stupid, and I'm your dictator." - America's Dictator

   You know, it's like the government, the "deep state" of agencies and the politicians, wanted Trump to win twice, and I'd like to know what was in it for the FBI and the DOJ to make damn sure Clinton and Harris had little chance to defeat him.

   Maybe Trump's bluster about a "stolen election" was because he knows and expects the actors will make damn sure he wins every time.

   In this scenario, why? Why would the agencies, even under Democratic administrations, especially under Democratic administrations, and even Biden, with his late exit from the race, act with one apparent goal - to rig our elections to ensure Donald Trump wins repeatedly?

   I know why MSM does it. They're billionaire-controlled. They're fascist. He's fascist. Birds of a feather doing that flocking thing. No hope for them. But the agencies?

   As the federal government is gutted, making it easier for a gangster state to emerge, akin to the one destroying Russia, a kid wonders why.

   If one were looking for ways to exert maximum load, individually, on insurance industries (car especially), I would suspect it'd make sense to think small scale damage, on many targets, generating as many small scale insurance claims as possible, while creating minimal possible jail time in the process.

   Small scale destruction of property charges are extremely rarely punished with any severity - and in places which operate under principles of common law, you're essentially guaranteed a very short stay, at worst, if you are convicted of any such crimes. This allows you to maximize load on the insurance companies labour while minizing your down time.

   In addition, submission of what can turn out to be frivolous claims, in such places as you might not be pursued criminally for doing so, can be a way to put additional load on the insurance infrastructure.

   Insurance infrastructure tied up with that would have cascading effects on structurally dependent industries. It could seriously fuck things up for rich folks, I'd suspect.

   Low personal risk, high impact.

   Thoughts on this hypothetical, spotting anything I overlooked, got flat out wrong, etc?

   "Never surrender" is pretty stupid messaging to put out when you're ostensibly going to be sentenced to jail time.

   In any case, #Trump is going to have a press conference soon:

   It looks better for me getting my benefits restored than it ever did inm a very long time.

   In the meantime, though, I still have no income and lots of bills and expenses, my rent which comes due next Tuesday, a myriad of bills, and the major critical utility bills that come in the final week of May.

   I still would like to raise $2,000 total by next week to have enough to clear all these expenses.

   You have been so helpful to me throughout this time. Please, keep the intensity! Thank you!!

   @cstross I remember around 1991 I had this recurring thought that in the year 2020 I was going to be 40 years old. It scared the hell out of me at the time.

   In retrospect, I was right, but then also I wouldn't want to be 11 again either.
