So sue them. Take action, make your case. All you have here on HN is an opinion which may or may not be accurate.
- Freedom2 2y agoAgreed. One of the greatest liberties here in the US is that we are free to sue and counter-sue whomever we like - the free market of the people unfettered and unchained!
- tootie 2y agoThat's incredibly glib and pedantic. I do not have the resources and probably not the standing to bring a suit. And given that any punishment will be immediately pardoned makes it moot. State Attorney's General have successfully paused Trump's abuse of impoundment as well his end to birthright citizenship. Musk is likely committing some form of criminal trespass, but who can arrest him? Trump's own FBI? He's been firing agents and prosecutors left and right. Purging anyone remotely disloyal. There may not be a functioning criminal justice system at the federal level anymore. The justice system only works when it works.
- kcplate 2y agoYou are making accusations with certainty and this implies that you have special legal knowledge or evidence that could be used to at a bare minimum to stop the behavior. There will be no shortages of lawyers available to you willing to use your special knowledge or evidence to bring suit. So why wouldn’t you pursue it if you care about it passionately? > I do not have the resources and probably not the standing to bring a suit. Oh, ok. Well never mind then.
