donald trump has ordered the IRS to hand over all of your personal information to a Holocaust denier who works for the richest man on Earth, who is a Nazi

You get what you vote for. Americans are groaning on here about Trump, but he said what he was going to do before the election. Many Americans are disgusted at what's happening, but millions didn't bother to vote. They may regret that decision in the coming years, along with everyone else.

Wasn’t there months of discourse about how only four specific Congresspeople were allowed to see Trump’s tax returns, and only if they had a legitimate interest in legislation, and Richie Neal was like Nah no thanks? And now it turns out BigBollz1488 can just go in and download all of them?

I remember he refused to collect his tax records from an accounting firm. They contacted his niece who collected them and took them to NY Times. He expected a dissolved company to protect his confidential records for eternity, I guess.

The problem is that Trump has no understanding of technology. He does not understand what he is unleashing and that he can't rein it back in. Things have been compromised to the point that our enemies can attack at any moment and we could not stop them. Musk sells to the highest bidder.
