One side knows how to use power against its enemies when it gets it. The other side is allergic to power. It's one of the main distinctions about DeSantis; he goes after his opponents.

How many people in the DOJ don’t meet this criteria?

shel will be on here shortly* to argue this in no way means our federal government is at war with its own citizens.








*After repeatedly claiming he's not on either side - he's above the fray!!!

Doesn’t ITAR prevent them from hiring anyone who isn’t a US citizen. This will be thrown out.

Now we're trying to pay illegals that didn't even work? Nevermind whether they were even qualified regardless of citizenship.

The US Department of Justice is suing Elon Musk’s SpaceX over allegations that it discriminated against asylees and refugees in hiring. In a lawsuit filed on Wednesday, the DOJ claims that, from at least September 2018 to May 2022, SpaceX discouraged refugees and asylees from applying to the company “by wrongly stating that SpaceX can only hire U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents.”


Is this not okay?

More proof that the DOJ is overrun with corruption.

You really going to go after a private company for hiring only legal US citizens ? Lol I can’t wait to see how this plays out in court.

I justs watched a video on YouTube where Destin from the Smarter Everyday channel went to a rocket production facility in Huntsville and took a tour with the CEO. It was very, very strict on what he could and could not film and this guy is an engineer who graduated from the University of Alabama, has a security clearance since he works on weapons projects as a contractor in Huntsville.

But our own federal government is suing an American company because they tried to protect proprietary information about US rocket systems from getting into the hands of foreigners? Insanity.

Musk should really consider buying an island and moving SpaceX there. Tell the US government to screw themselves.

This is just for political revenge and to force Musk in pay up high legal costs to defend. The more resources they force him and his companies to waste the more they “win” against him for “payback”

Nobody uses the arms of the government to make the lives of political “enemies” hell like Democrats
