"You don’t get what you deserve; you get what you negotiate." 🧵

"What distinguishes #Powertalk is that with every word uttered, the power equation between the two speakers shifts just a little. Sometimes both gain slightly, at the expense of some poor schmuck. Sometimes one yields ground to the other. Powertalk in other words, is a consequential language."

…The decision shows that #Musk's Department of Government *Efficiency*, which is directing the cuts, is not making the government more effective, said Kathleen Clark, a professor of #ethics at WashU in St. Louis.

"It is becoming increasingly obvious that Musk’s & #DOGE’s mission has absolutely nothing to do with efficiency, & instead is aimed at enabling Musk to use - & abuse - #power within the federal government," she said.

"We have power... Our power isn’t in a political system, or a religious system, or in an economic system, or in a military system; these are authoritarian systems... they have power... but it’s not reality.
