Trump has made it clear that he will not allow federal government officials to enforce the Constitution and the multitude of federal laws that Elon Musk and his DOGE boys are violating in their ongoing takeover of federal agencies. So state and local governments need to step in to fill the void to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States and our Constitutional Rights. A good way to start would be for the State of Maryland and Arlington and Fairfax Counties and the City of Alexandria in Virginia to issue warrants for the arrest of Elon Musk, Edward Coristine, Akash Bobba, Ethan Shaotran, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian and Gavin Klige for theft from federal agency files of the personal information of each jurisdiction’s citizens in violation of state law. If any of these criminals ever step foot out of the District of Columbia, they need to be thrown in jail.
It will be tricky for the DC police to arrest Musk and the DOGE boys and put them in the DC jail. The Acting US Attorney for the District of Columbia is part of the Musk coup and he has already threatened to arrest anyone who stands in Musk’s way. And unfortunately this acting US Attorney is the head of Law Enforcement in the District and could immediately order the release of Musk and his fellow DOGE conspirators from jail. But the DC police, FBI, DEA and all the other law enforcement agencies in the District of Columbia are also sworn to protect and defend the Constitution.
So I call on courageous DC Police officers, FBI agents and other law enforcement personnel in the District of Columbia to uphold their oaths and help block this coup. They should arrest Musk and his crew and bring them across the border to the Arlington County jail. And then we should hold them here for violations of state and federal laws and the Constitution and deny bail while the coup is ongoing.
No doubt Trump’s US Attorneys will seek to remove prosecutions to federal court and then dismiss them. Or file writs of habeas corpus to have the DOGE plotters released. And the Republican Governor and Attorney General of Virginia will no doubt direct Arlington or Alexandria or Fairfax to stand down. But local police and prosecutors and judges in our Blue jurisdictions should ignore orders from Trump and his minions. Our loyalty must be to the Constitution and not to a President/wannabe King and prosecutors and judges who will trample the Constitution in subservience to the wishes of the wannabe King.
I recognize that the preceding sentence reads like a prescription for a constitutional crisis. But it is written in recognition that we are in a constitutional crisis now. And our local Blue jurisdictions should start acting like they know it.
Hopefully before anyone reads this blog and has any thought to follow my advice, federal judges will have enjoined Musk and his employees from entering any federal properties or accessing any federal records. And hopefully Trump will order his minions to obey court orders. I think the first is likely but I am not optimistic about the latter.
