Bet this is humiliating to “Special boy” Elon.
That fucker got his DOGE government position. What an absolute wank stain. When are we deporting him?
Deport?
I was thinking a good ol’ fashioned Texas barbecue.I’m a vegetarian but I’ll take a bite of the billionaire just to show my commitment to the cause.
Deporting Musk? … I’d be more worried that they will want to deport you.
Lol.
The only way this society is going is down.
Hope you’re all ready for the shittiest ride ever.
why do these cunts not see the obvious cross purpose in this???
the department of eliminating redundancy department
So efficient it shuts itself down first.
He’s gonna run it as well as he’s run Twitter
Trump in politics is scary. Musk in politics is terrifying.
He basically spent $200M to become a shadow president.
He just needs to get out of jail and for his investments to go up
We are so fucked.
Let’s start with reducing government handouts. … Tesla has reaped almost $9 billion since 2018 by selling what are known as “regulatory credits, opens new tab,” securities filings show.
Co-lead with Dolores Umbridge.
Doesn’t it take an act of Congress to create a new govt department?
Welp, the GOP will fully control all 3 branches of government in a couple months, so that’s not a problem at all. We’re going full throttle into corporate conartists turning the country into a fascist dystopia so they can rob the government coffers blind before sailing away on one of their billion dollar yachts.
Correct
an entity Trump indicated will operate outside the confines of government.
So this is just a blue ribbon commission that’s going to collect donations, maybe government grants, write some kind of report, then send it to Congress where it will be promptly ignored because it’s recommendations will be too politically toxic for actual Republicans up for reelection to implement.
This reminds me of 2016, Trump claimed he won the popular vote but millions of illegal aliens voted, so he set up some dumb commission to investigate all the election fraud. It held a hearing or two, wasted a bunch of money, didn’t find any evidence of anything, then quietly disappeared.
Anyone on the left needs to be ready for this kind of shit and to respond appropriately. Trump will do a bunch of shit for show that doesn’t mean anything. Part of that show is getting the libs all outraged and worked up. Then Trump and Co can say “Look at those Dems with their Trump derangement syndrome lashing out at our brave president trying to cut government waste, Dems are so out of touch, yada yada”. This is the playbook, he’s been doing it for a decade now. Don’t play the game, save the outrage for real shit that hurts real people.
Yes, which this isn’t. It’s my understanding Musk couldn’t hold such a position while maintaining his position in his companies.
My guess is that Trump issues an executive order requiring that all executive branch organizations must implement the policy recommendations of this organization. This keeps it outside the government but also effectively official policy as well.
Appointing the World’s Richest Man to a NEW Taxpayer Funded Government Department that oversees Regulations that, if Eliminated, would make him a TRILLIONAIRE is called DRAINING THE SWAMP!
It’s not part of the government. It will have no power or influence. It’s a set piece, just part of the show. The point is to pretend to be focused on government waste and to bring in smart outsiders to do it. The point is to get liberals pissed off so Republicans can tell voters Democrats are so out of touch, they get mad at anything Trump does, even cutting government waste. It won’t end up even issuing recommendations or doing anything, we’ll all just forget about it in two weeks. Trump gets the headline, the reaction from libs who just love government waste, further eating into our negative perception among voters, and we’ll all move on to the next outrage in the Trump show.
Learn the lesson now. Don’t react to every dumb thing Trump does. He’s a showman, there will always be a next act to keep the masses entertained, we don’t have to play a supporting role all the time. Roll your eyes, demand he follow through and show results, ridicule him for failure when nothing comes of it. Save the outrage for when people are getting hurt.
Like the election security council from his first term?
Username checks out.
The point is to pretend to be focused on government waste
Just like every republican president since Nixon
Elizabeth Warren had a great reaction about how the department of waste reduction has two leaders and apparently needs two people to do one job.
2 people to run it, but no resources allocated…
The tent pole is hoisted and the clowns are donning their makeup. The four year circus is about to open
The clowns are all look like pennywise and the Terrifier.
