I’ve long believed that the American media would be more clear-eyed about the rise and return of Donald Trump if it was happening overseas in a foreign country, where we’re used to foreign correspondents writing with more incisive authority. Having watched with growing alarm the developments of the last 24 and 36 hours in Washington, I thought I’d take a stab at just such a dispatch. Here’s a story that should be written this weekend:
Musk Junta Seizes Key Governmental Offices
February 1, 2025
By William Boot
WASHINGTON, D.C. — What started Thursday as a political purge of the internal security services accelerated Friday into a full-blown coup, as elite technical units aligned with media oligarch Elon Musk moved to seize key systems at the national treasury, block outside access to federal personnel records, and take offline governmental communication networks.
With rapidity that has stunned even longtime political observers, forces loyal to Musk’s junta have established him as the all-but undisputed unelected head of government in just a matter of days, unwinding the longtime democracy’s constitutional system and its proud nearly 250-year-old tradition of the rule of law. Having secured themselves in key ministries and in a building adjacent to the presidential office complex, Musk’s forces have begun issuing directives to civil service workers and forcing the resignation of officials deemed insufficiently loyal, like the head of the country’s aviation authority.
The G-7 country’s newly installed president, a mid-level oligarch named Donald Trump, appeared amid Musk’s moves to be increasingly merely a figurehead head of state. Trump is a convicted felon with a long record of family corruption and returned in power in late January after a four-year interlude promising retribution and retaliation against foreign opponents and a domestic “Deep State.” He had been charged with attempting to overthrow the peaceful transition of power that had previously removed him from office in 2021, but loyalist elements in the judiciary successfully blocked his prosecution and incarceration, easing his return to power.
Over the last two weeks, loyalist presidential factions and Musk-backed teams have launched sweeping, illegal Stalin-esque purges of the national police forces and prosecutors, as well as offices known as inspectors-general, who are typically responsible for investigating government corruption. While official numbers of the unprecedented ousters were kept secret, rumors swirled in the capital that the scores of career officials affected by the initial purges could rise into the thousands as political commissars continued to assess the backgrounds of members of the police forces.
The mentally declining and aging head of state, who has long embraced conspiracist thinking, spent much of the week railing in bizarre public remarks against the country’s oppressed racial and ethnic minorities, whom he blamed without evidence for causing a deadly plane crash across the river from the presidential mansion. Unfounded racist attacks on those minorities have been a key foundation of Trump’s unpredicted rise to political power from a career as a real estate magnate and reality TV host and date back to his first announcement that he would seek the presidency in 2015, when he railed against “rapists” being sent into the country from its southern neighbor.
In one of his first moves upon returning to the presidency, he mobilized far-right paramilitary security forces to begin raids at churches, schools, and workplaces to identify and remove racial minorities, including those who had long lived in harmony with the country’s white Christian majority. He also immediately moved to release from prison some 1,500 supporters who had participated in his unsuccessful 2021 insurrection, including members of violent far-right militias who promptly upon release swore fealty to him in any future civil unrest. Elsewhere, even as he released violent criminals onto the streets, Trump by fiat pulled longstanding government security protection from former military and health officials he felt had betrayed him.
Underscoring his apparent disconnection from reality, reports surfaced that the president had ordered military forces to unleash an environmental catastrophe and flood regions of a separatist province known as California that is led by a high-profile political opponent. The order underscored how the military, which had resisted Trump’s unconstitutional power grabs in his first administration, was now led by a subservient defense minister, a favored TV personality with no experience in management who faced an embarrassing series of allegations about his drunken behavior in the workplace.
Foreign allies who had long aligned themselves with the United States on the international stage were unsettled by increasingly destabilizing nationalistic and imperialist rhetoric coming from the president’s social media accounts—largely posted to a network owned and run by Trump himself—and worried in private conversations in capital embassies that he would mobilize the compliant military to fulfill heretofore unimaginable territorial ambitions that included seizing the country’s northern neighbor, which shares the world’s longest undefended border, and potentially colonizing Panama and Greenland.
Both the country’s defense minister, who has previously said he does not believe women should be allowed to serve in combat roles, and Trump’s new interior minister, who appeared on national TV wearing the paramilitary uniform of the border security force central to Trump’s political rise, spent much of their first days echoing and amplifying the president’s hysteria about racial and ethnic minorities. They and other government officials also immediately canceled all official observances of religious and ethnic minority holidays and launched efforts to scrub official websites and prohibit educating workers or schoolchildren about those minorities’ long, proud history in the country. Overnight Friday, hours after journalists had gone home, the defense minister’s office announced it would bar establishment independent media outlets from working out of the country’s military headquarters and replace them with friendly right-wing media organs.
The administration’s propaganda minister also announced Friday, apparently with little preparation, that it would initiate an immediate, unexpected, and seemingly ill-considered trade war with the country’s two primary economic partners, a move that if implemented would upend the national economy, disrupt supply chains, and accelerate the return of an inflationary crisis that has roiled domestic politics over the last five years and had just seemed to be returning to normal. Ironically, it was that very inflationary crisis and Trump’s promises on the campaign trail to lower the price of eggs that paved the way for his unforeseen election victory in November.
The country’s other business oligarchs have watched Musk’s unexpected and rapid rise to power with trepidation, and leading media and technology companies who compete with Musk’s extensive business empire—like Meta, Amazon, Disney, Paramount, Apple, and OpenAI—have quickly lined up to negotiate and pay bribes to the president that would allow their companies to operate unimpeded; initial payment terms ranged from million-dollar gifts to the presidential inauguration to $15 million and $25 million payments, made by Disney and Meta, to fund the construction of a presidential shrine. The highest known payment was $40 million from Amazon, which was structured as a gift to the president’s wife in exchange for the media company having the opportunity to film a hagiographic biopic.
It was unclear, exactly, what deal terms any of those bribes and payments unlocked and when subsequent tribute payments would be expected, although on Saturday Trump moved to fire and neuter government watchdogs that had long bedeviled the country’s financial elite.
Throughout the week’s fast-moving seizure of power—one that seems increasingly irreversible by the hour—neither loyalist nor opposition parliamentary leaders raised meaningful objection to the new regime or the unraveling of the country’s constitutional system of checks and balances. A few members of the geriatric legislature body offered scattered social media posts condemning the move, but parliament — where both houses are controlled by so-called “MAGA” members handpicked for their loyalty to the president — went home early for the weekend even as Musk’s forces spread through the capital streets.
It was unclear what role, if any, Musk’s forces would allow parliament to have in the new governmental structure by the time it next returned to the national assembly known as Capitol Hill.
Buckle up as Stephen Colbert goes through the laundry list of disastrous moves made over the weekend by President Trump, which included slapping tariffs on Mexico and Canada and giving Elon Musk access to the Treasury Department’s payments system.
BTW, best line from that Graff piece that will really gall the grifter and may give him pause about his BFF: The G-7 country’s newly installed president, a mid-level oligarch named Donald Trump, appeared amid Musk’s moves to be increasingly merely a figurehead head of state. Trump is a convicted felon with a long record of family corruption and returned in power in late January after a four-year interlude promising retribution and retaliation….
yeah, you can imagine how musk is directing the handlers to keep DODO busy at his little EO signing desk, in front of cameras and fawning media (a la norma desmond’s fake comeback scene), while the coup proceeds unstopped.
Ivy, your DODO title accurately limits him to that 1 day since the muskrat seems now to have taken on the dictator mantle the rest of the days.
MuskRat and his helper monkeys should be arrested (despite the ridiculous letter from tRUMPsky’s attorney – who has never prosecuted anything). So many laws have been violated.
Let’s start with the Privacy Act of 1974. If a foreign entity had accessed a national database…Oh, wait!
Congress can stand in front of microphones (are most Americans even seeing it?) and file lawsuits to stop Elon (after the fact, so the horse is out), but it will take the military to stop the South African terrorist.
MuskRat showed up with huge vehicles yesterday. HSEMA (looked like giant SWAT vehicles) to terrorize federal employees. Did the evening news show it? Nope. They are complicit in the coup.
The generals need to remember that their oath is to the US Constitution, not Adolf and certainly not Elon. Kick the husk of a human that is Hegseth aside. He’s also complicit and clueless, as well…and possibly drunk.
“The bill is titled, An Act relating to the Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services; abolishing the Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services; transferring all duties, powers, and responsibilities to the State Department of Corrections; transferring all real and personal property; providing for codification; providing an effective date; and declaring an emergency.”
“The bill would abolish the Department of Mental Health and Substance Use Services and put all of those services in the hands of the Department of Corrections. All funding, property, and powers that are related to mental health or substance use, will be diverted to the Department of Corrections, if this bill is to pass through the Oklahoma House.”
An “emergency.” Oklahoma is not OK. Well, let’s hope this doesn’t catch on, but didn’t n@zis send the mentally ill to concentration camps ?
System may be over-the -heads of Loni and the Henchmen?
It’s also important to state that the number of people who comprehensively understand these legacy IT systems can likely be counted on two hands — and that may be optimistic. It is already a threat to their Mission Critical nature for David Lebryk to be forced out of the Federal Government by Elon Musk. Lebryk, who first joined the Treasury Department in 1989 and slowly worked his way up until he was its highest ranking non-political appointee, is clearly the person on earth who understands this IT apparatus the best. Having known his equivalents on far smaller and less important scales in other legacy IT systems, I can tell you that there are certainly things about this IT system that he knows and no one else does.
Furthermore, it’s possible that he is the only person on earth that fully understands how all the many components of how these sprawling legacy IT systems — really a legacy IT “network” — fits together and interacts. I’m sure the knowledge of the remaining career service professionals at the Treasury can combine their understanding to approximate most of Lebryk’s knowledge, but there is a reason you have and value someone like Lebryk in the first place. Companies have spent millions of dollars hiring back such people to fix mission critical IT systems of far, far less importance.
Legacy systems – written in wonderful languages such as Fortran IV or even VII, LISP, COBOL, PL/1, C (not C++ or C#), ALGOL, Pascal, and, the almighty, Assembly. Some of the hardware would be in a museum. One system I was working on before retiring had been constructed in the 1970’s and 1980’s. One system I worked on in the 1980’s was built in the 1960’s, 70’s and 80’s; it is still in operation litterally untouched since I modded some of the software.
The kids have no clue what they are efing with,. If checks don’t go out it will be because they touched something.
There are no guardrails at the top on the road up to Pikes Peak, so as not to convey any false sense of security. (It’s the coming down that’s the scariest.)
Here is a wild thought about why the nazi and his minion naziis are breaking in to the federal finance system, what if sfb decided to stop paying retirement, benefits and whatevers to people he decided were employed using DEI? In the twisted depths of his idiocy that would make sense.
Otherwise first thought of giving it all to puttie makes sense too.
Watch this folks. Project 2025 asserts courts have no authority over Executive. This is how the Trump dictatorship takes hold. “EPA spending freeze continues despite court orders” https://politi.co/4aJTjLy via
Poobah, since Congress has ceded its power to FFFF, the judiciary is the only one of the two co-equal branches still standing. I think you are exactly right, and as goes the judiciary so goes our “democracy”.
“As Elon Musk Warns of Persecution of White People, Trump Says He Will Block Aid to South Africa” “Their far-right followers, who have fixated on the prospect of “white genocide” in South Africa for years, knew the two billionaires were invoking the specter of a race war in which Black citizens “steal” the land of their compatriots. The people who seem most excited by Trump and Musk’s recent defense of South African white people appear to be far-right X users known for posting about race, IQ, and the JQ, an anti-semitic abbreviation for the “Jewish Question.”
“Trump to hold private dinner with Republican senators at Mar-A-Lago on FridayThe GOP senators will be in town for the NRSC annual winter meeting.”
“ABC News has exclusively obtained an invitation sent to GOP senators and their spouses to have dinner with Trump at Mar-A-Lago on Friday while they are in town for the National Republican Senatorial Committee’s Annual Winter Meeting.”
So, ABC is now state-sponsored media…or is this just part of the interview process?
AOC, she deserves the exalted place being called by initials, is finding her voice and making her own bloody pulpit since the ancients of Dem hierarchy won’t give her one. She is starting to kick at the Dems in the Senate who keep voting for sfb cult members. Good for her. I hope she starts to get some better placements. She is the face of the new Democratic Party.
“On Tuesday, President Trump will sign an executive order that will pull the U.S. out of the United Nations Human Rights Council, according to a White House official who was not authorized to speak publicly ahead of the announcement.”
“The order will also cut future funding to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency, which provides aid to Palestinians. The Biden administration paused funding to UNRWA while the war between Israel and Hamas was ongoing, after accusations from Israel that some staffers from the agency had ties to Hamas. But an independent review found that there was no evidence to back that up. UNRWA is the main agency providing relief to Palestinians in Gaza.”
Finally got through to the other Senator’s voicemail, and after sharing my dissatisfaction with RFKJ’s progress, and asking him not to bite for Kash or Tulsi, asked him why Elon is bringing allowed to rob the Treasury…and then hoped he had a nice dinner at Mar-a-Lago on Friday.
Am I on a watch list now? Ha!
If you don’t hear from me, again, it’s been a time.
“Treasury Says Musk Team Has Read-Only Access to Payment Data”
“The US Treasury Department confirmed Tuesday that Elon Musk’s government efficiency team has been given “read-only” access to “coded data” of the government’s payments system.”
Still, if they can access data of someone on their enemies list, they can be chaos monsters.
“Sen. Bill Cassidy still hasn’t indicated how he’ll vote on the HHS secretary nominee, while Sens. Todd Young and Jerry Moran have yet to disclose their votes on the national intelligence director pick.”
Wouldn’t it be delicious if Bobby Brainworms and his MAGAt backers in Congress all came down with the tuberculosis that’s going around?

Well, it may not be our military that rounds upSh/tler, JD, MuskRat, and anyone else in the administration (or administration adjacent) if they plan on occupying Palestine.
FYI – A lot of them will be at Mar-a-Lago on Friday night, including Republican Senators.
