I feel like ninja might be giving them too much credit. These folks ain't subtle or stealthy. They don't strike me as a paper bag by the door crowd.

I picture the type of people who would hijack a port-a-potty truck on it's way back from a festival, quickly and badly spray paint the whole thing in (mate) black, and then proceed to crash it through the lobby.

@nw @pluralistic “These people are committing grave crimes against the nation and its people. They should be known for this. It should follow them for the rest of their lives. It should be the lead in their obituaries. People who are introduced to them at parties should have a flash of recognition, hastily end the handshake, then turn on their heels and race to the bathroom to scrub their hands. For the rest of their lives.” #TomKrause #Resist
@pluralistic @nw “This is the DOGE playbook. It's all about plunder: take something that was patiently, carefully built up over generations and burn it to the ground, warming yourself in the pyre, leaving nothing behind but ash. This is what private equity plunderers have been doing to the world's "advanced" economies since the Reagan years.” #TomKrause
