A first for me, I’m basically nobody, just Very PO’d at these liars and thieves.
A brief overview of what it’s all about, IMO. Some of this is distilled from a podcast by Stephanie Rule and Tim Miller.
Elon Musk/Trump
1. Is closing agencies that he/Doge says will save money
2. Is going after SS by falsely claiming it's a Ponzi scheme etc etc.
3. 1. is running rockets that blow up that are paid for by his contracts with Gov.
4. T said in his inauguration speech that he wanted to go to/claim Mars.
5. Has announced an expedition to Mars for next ('26) year
Musk sees himself as a messianic figure, 'saving' humanity from a planetary disaster. This is why he claims he's done nothing wrong, and that he's the 'good guy'. Trump as well sees himself as a great man. Also, Trump wants to be king. He wants all to be under his control. Hitler also saw himself similarly.

Musk and trump are going to use the money from SS and agency closures etc to finance the Mars adventure, And to give tax breaks to his buds. This is why they want the money Now.
These funds could be used to fix what is right here on Earth, and the Mars adventure (if there is so little money, why spend it on This?) This spending can be spent on so much to help US, the actual investors in these fantasies.
Ads etc should run that show the blownup rockets and say that this is where 'your' gov't agency money and SS is going, instead of health care etc etc.
And bills to slow or stop the Mars project, Gov't funding to Musk, need to be put forward NOW.
