NY State has discovered Musk taking Funds out of Bank Accounts

It was less than a week ago I raised the specter of Musk being able to pull money directly from anyone’s bank accounts. (See: https://www.democraticunderground.com/100220001927)

Looks like they are starting with blue states.

https://www.reddit.com/r/law/s/aKusU7sD1Q

New York, NY - New York City Comptroller Brad Lander released the following statement:
"This morning, my financial team shockingly uncovered that President Trump and his crony Elon Musk illegally executed a revocation of $80 million in congressionally-appropriated FEMA funding from New York City's bank accounts late yesterday afternoon. This is money that the federal government previously disbursed for shelter and services and is now missing. This highway robbery of our funds directly out of our bank account is a betrayal of everyone who calls New York City home.


On Edit: my personal immediate reaction is this will shake the confidence of every citizen for putting their money in the bank. Personally, I am considering acquiring hard assets and opening off shore accounts to avoid this kind of illegal seizure of assets.

Democrats need to reach out to Farmers ASAP!

?si=n8uXhHcLNU9sM7Mf

This is the time! Here and now. Reach out to every farm town in USA and organize Farmers For Democrats! Get a million farmer march on DC! Get the truckers involved too (this impacts them just as much).

This is what party leadership should be doing right now. You want the country back? Explain to farmers how Democrats can help them restore what they earned!

I've not seen this discussed anywhere, so I am going to raise it here

Musk’s capture of Treasury data and systems gives him the ability to seize anyone’s finances. The gov’t has the ability to lock and take any US financial account. This is usually reserved for locking accounts involved in financial crimes.

Do we think Musk and Trump wouldn’t hesitate to do this to any person in this country?

Trump is trying to incite violence on the left

The r/conservative subreddit is full of false fear of liberals becoming violent. Trump is saying Democratic criticism of Musk/DOGE is “alarming” and “unacceptable”. Musk accused those of naming his brownshirts as having committed crimes and the AG is threatening to prosecute anyone who names them or says mean things about Musk and she came out today saying she could prosecute the Gov of MA and MA city/town mayors for violating immigration law while simultaneously threatening criminal prosecution of companies who refuse to end DEI policies.

Then you have idiots like this in standoffs with law enforcement:



This is an effort for conservatives to play victim against an imagined violent left.

This is serious and coordinated and I believe it is part of a plan for Trump to be able to declare martial law and throw the US into a police state.

I have huge concerns for Sunday’s Superbowl to be a catalyst.

Musk has taken the NOAA CO2 monitoring data from Mauna Lao offline

His brownshirts raided the NOAA data center yesterday and now the entire Mauna Lao site is offline: https://gml.noaa.gov/

What President Musk is doing is realizing the Republican Wet Dream that is over 25 years in the making

“I don't want to abolish government. I simply want to reduce it to the size where I can drag it into the bathroom and drown it in the bathtub.” - Grover Norquist, May 2001

I was surprised people here were shocked that W refused to endorse a candidate. He didn’t endorse, because Trump was the key to completing his vision of America. Many long timers here should know what that is: the dismantling of the federal government.

This is just a reminder that this has been the goal for the Republican Party for over a quarter of a century. They wanted this, they just had a hard time getting there. Trump was their key to split the blue collar using racism wrapped in a national symbol. It worked. The benefactors were always the same: the ultra wealthy. While these people may have changed over the years, it is still the top of the wealth charts that are behind it and their plan is simple: enrich themselves into astronomical levels of wealth the world has never witnessed, while making everyone else dependent upon their good graces. “Thank you, sir, may I have another?” They do not want to stop with America either. Musk is already making moves in Europe and before long, America will end up looking like Russia.

You want food? Ain’t gonna find it at the grocery store… you better learn how to garden, serfs.
You want healthcare? Don’t get sick, otherwise, you aren’t useful.
You want security? Well, better get a gun, if you can afford it.

We are headed for a realm that only existed in Charles Dickens’s worst nightmare. We all need to prepare for it. We all need to fight against it.

“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of light, it was the season of darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair.” — Charles Dickens

It's Time for POLITICAL NUCLEAR WARFARE!

This is what you and our Democrtic representatives in government can do:

Block EVERYTHING, procedurally or otherwise, in the government. No Debt ceiling raise, no Budget, no judges, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

Trump is punishing the poor, blue states and Democrats regardless. Time to burn it all down.

Do not pass a single penny out of Congress. At least this way, ICE agents and Trump’s conscripted posse of bounty hunters will see no pay day. How long will they round up people for deportation without pay?

Trump will wreck the economy anyway with tariffs and every day acts and threats of stopping the flow of federal funding. May as well take away his power to enforce anything.

Starve out the MIC. No renewal of any Tax policy. Let the Trump Tax cuts expire.

Give no concessions; Give no reasons for blocking everything. Just shut it all the fuck down. Now.

Do whatever you can, even at the state level to block anything Trumpublicans want.

Call your Democratic reps and insist they take this course of action.

Mass schools are telling bus drivers not to let kids get off a bus because ICE is KIDNAPPING THEM

https://www.reddit.com/r/WorcesterMA/s/EktETcezhx



Mass schools are telling bus drivers that if they heard or suspect ICE agents are in the area to not let kids get off the bus.

ICE agents are taking (hispanic looking) kids and “detaining” (aka kidnapping) them to get them to confess they are illegal and to get their parents and deport them.

This is a blue state punishment and it is fucking illegal. I am so fucking pissed right now.

Reports of Thwaites Glacier breaking free

I’ll post to the discussion on Reddit. Original link is on X. If this is true, it will be the story of the year.

https://www.reddit.com/r/collapse/s/89P4mKxnW3

From the original post:

A new crack runs just through the iceberg group that is attached to anchor point 6.
This is a very important subsea elevation, which served as an anchor for the central drifting iceberg train.
There is no stopping it, now that the eastern & western anchor points have also failed
