How much media coverage is there on the chaos?
Safe to assume your average Joe isn’t even aware whats up to. Certainly not what musk is up to. And if they are it’s all probably being packaged as a great thing in certain outlets

Yeah the media is barely covering Trump at all. I'm not even sure most Americans are aware he is the new president. My neighbors were taken away by the cops last night for even mentioning him in a negative light.

Has Trump delivered a death blow to the board? It feels like things are really slowing down around here.

I spent the weekend building RC cars with my kids so I'm not sure how things ended, but there was lot of nonsense in the form of attacking people not ideas late last week that was a big turn off for everyone.

We could always just talk more about what’s happening around us.

I mean, I understand that some people do fully support the dismantling of the administrative state. I’ve known that for a long time.

But we’ve had quite a lot of conversations in here that boiled down to “well, the president can’t do (thing that is being discussed but hasn’t been acted on),” or “trying to do (x) would be a terrible and scandalous violation of crucial norms.” We’ve had people here post op-eds about how canceling federal student loan debt is probably not within the president‘s constitutional powers.

And now you have an administration that refuses to pay out funds authorized by Congress, is unwriting corruption laws at a frenzied pace, and is shutting down entire agencies even when doing so requires outright ignoring the judiciary.

Normally, “criticism of how they are going about this thing“ is as much a part of the conversation here as “what will the effect of the thing they are doing be.“ And in this case it’s happening extremely quickly, so it seems pertinent to talk about.

That’s a perfectly fair outlook.

It’s also one of the darkest things I’ve read in a long time, because maybe I agree.
