‘This is a coup’: Trump and Musk’s purge is cutting more than costs, say experts
In slashing staff and disabling entire agencies the administration is lacerating the structures of US democracy
If this happened in any other country ... it would be a coup
Since it happened in the US ... media get to use their imagination to describe it any other way than the truth.
I sure wish someone else could CIA us for a change.
You have been CIA'd ... this is what all those South American countries felt in the 70s and 80s ... this is what Iran and the Middle East felt like in 1950s ... this is what Indonesia felt like in 1960s .... this is what Africa has always felt
That feeling of being totally hopeless, helpless and being held at the whims of powerful wealthy overlords that could destroy your life, your community and your country at any moment? .... the CIA has made most of the world feel like that for about a hundred years and now they're doing it to their own people.

The entire Republican party is complicit in this.
The entire Republican party is complicit in this.

They have literally been saying this forever now! It’s written in their goddamn little project 2025 outline. The Vice president literally said we’re going to fire everybody and replace them with our people.
I mean, how much clearer do they need to fucking say it!?
I bet you they could literally get on fox media and say “we’re taking over the fucking government. It’s a coup.” and their supporters would be cheering them on and nothing would happen.
In fact, his supporters think he’s the greatest thing since sliced fucking bread because he’s purging the liberals.
Hey Americans, take to the streets or you're signaling implicit approval.
Canada and the rest of the world is watching.
They’re watching to see how to do it.
You can't call this a coup! They made free speech illegal.
