A long read, but Timothy Synder raises the alarm that must be heard. An impending atrocity, literally engineered by our current VP and the Blood Tribe, a neo-Nazi group, is about to occur in Ohio.

Not only are they ignoring climate change—they’re trying to cover up the cost. Shutting down NOAA’s disaster tracking so we can’t see the BILLIONS it’s costing us? This ain’t solving the crisis—it’s hiding it.
US will stop tracking the costs of extreme weather fueled by climate change
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said it will no longer track the cost of weather disasters, including floods, heat waves, wildfires and more

This is scary.
We still are trying to sort out how much China abused a backdoor in our wiretap systems (Trump fired the team investigating it) and now we've just opened up a massive new backdoor to the entire payment system of the United States
What could go wrong?
What could go wrong?
This is a backdoor. Elon's coders are creating a backdoor into the US Treasury. This is incredibly dangerous both because of its intended use (by Elon and Trump) and the risk of other actors exploiting a major security vulnerability to cause a massive disruption to the US government.
