In the past week or so, the courts have begun to try to set some boundaries on the MuskāMillerāTrump administrationās early blitz of recklessness.
. . .
This judicial review provides at least a small reprieve, hope that some of the administrationās most destructive impulses will be stopped. Or at least pared back. But even with the courts stepping up, and even with the reality of the administrationās ineptitude sinking in, this early MuskāMillerāTrump blitz remains veryāmaybe irreparablyādamaging. Of course, there are a lot of moles to whack: the U.S. Agency for International Development and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau are being dismantled at an alarming rate, and the court system is not known for being nimble. The administration is betting, perhaps rightly, that at least some of its thoughtless, lawless efforts will slip through the cracks.
But even if the courts caught them allāand even if every court facing each lawless escapade said, āNope, thatās not a thingāāstill the entire process would be doing serious damage to our institutions. Think of it as someone spoofing your identity and going on a shopping spree with your credit cards. Even if the goon gets caught, you still have to go store by store to argue that the fraudulent purchase wasnāt legitimate and hope the debt is forgiven. And all the while, perhaps long after all the debts are dealt with, the torrent of uncertainty kills your credit score.
Remember how this started with you saying what Trump is doing right now with firing federal employees is a good thing?
Still think what heās doing is good?
Yes lol nothing you said that would possibly change someoneās mind
Really? The fact that he fired the people who secure nuclear weapons and monitor other nationsā nuclear weapons doesnāt change your mind? Loose nukes are a good thing?
Did you even read the article? You didnāt, did you?
I donāt care what rawstory thinks
Itās not an opinion article. Itās a fact. Trump fired people responsible for securing our nuclear weapons.
So go on, talk about how unsecure nuclear weapons are a good thing.
Getting rid of those people isnāt evidence that they are insecure. So yes it is an opinion piece
āGetting rid of the bank guards doesnāt mean itās easy to rob the bank!ā Thatās what youāre arguing now.
If the bank kept itās money in the open with only guards protecting it yeah, but thatās not the case
Okay, youāve reached the ānuclear weapons are just as safe when they arenāt guarded as when they are guardedā level of absurdity here, so I think itās time to end this before you say something like, āglobal nuclear war is survivable anyway.ā
