If he ever faces justice for the hundreds of thousands needlessly dead because of him I hope it a fine based on net worth like the Nordic countries do, and then death.
Millions
This is so annoying. If he wasn't allowed to or able to or supposed to, how did it happen???
USAID was established in 1961 by President John F. Kennedy via executive order under the authority of the Congress-passed Foreign Assistance Act of 1961. While authorized by this legislation, it was later formally codified as an independent agency by Congress through the Foreign Affairs Reform and Restructuring Act of 1998.
Sadly, a LOT of people stayed home and did not vote for Kamala Harris, or they voted 3rd party, and Trump was elected to run the Executive branch. The Trump administration decided the executive branch could choose which laws they executed. The opposition was immediate and lawsuits were filed, but the gears of justice grind slowly, so here we are in 2026 with depositions finally starting.
Noone said no, is my guess.
The constitution was written by people who assumed the positions they were creating would always be occupied by good-faith actors. They weren't.
Most pedos are used to being the only adult in the room. They make up whatever rules they want.
I thought that said deported.
My evening is ruined.
We need less "depose" and more "dispose".
I remember when Musk was the cool electric car guy and not the chief accomplice to the dismantling of Western democracy.
He was never really that either tho. He’s always been a douche.
Spoiler Alert: It was a grift at the expense of the American tax payer. Like literally everything the Republican party does.
Elect criminals, get robbed.

Maybe trial him for mass murder as this costed an estimate of 600.000 to 1.200.000 people their lives.
I could be wrong here, but are you sure that's not a projected outcome due to the fallout vs present has happened. I don't doubt it will, just not sure it has.
Elon musk: he's like henry kissinger levels of evil.
So he's going to win the Nobel?
Ten's of thousands of people have already died at the hands of Elon Musk destroying USAID. It was all part of their plan. Then Elon got hundreds of billions in welfare from trump for helping do the dirty work.
And America just sat by and watched.
We truly are a weak nation.
Freeze his assets. He needs to fund the rebuilding of our national security infrastructure
Not just freeze them but nationalize them along with all his companies (except for Twatter and Grok, put them out of their misery) and, as @Gammelfisch@lemmy.world said, throw him into prison. But before we do that, we have to "get rid" of Der Orange Führer.
...and toss his neo-Nazi ass into prison.
Don't you get deported when you're not born in the US and are convicted of a felony? Just saying.
He's a naturalized US citizen. But citizenship can be stripped, especially if someone has dual citizenship. And Musk still has Canadian citizenship...
Oh no. A deposition. Questions will be asked. He's in big trouble.
He might even get a finger wagged at him!
Christ, can they seize all of his assets?
Also, will this be recorded and shown to the public?
Ok, and then what?
Dems will hound him doggedly for donations next election cycle.
DEPORT THIS AFRICAN IMMIGRANT!
For just a moment I thought it said 'deported'. For just that moment, I felt elation like I haven't known in years.
I'm still hopeful.
