Strange how people don’t mention that Elon Musk was an illegal immigrant. He came from South Africa on a student visa, and then jumped it. He is a US citizen now, whereas Filipinos, for example, have almost a 20-year wait for legal immigration, and citizenship for entrants from any country takes several more years and many fees.
“Experts: DOGE scheme doomed because of Musk and Ramaswamy’s “meme-level understanding” of spending" (salon)
Hyping to the media about cutting down $500 billion in Federal spending, and using some examples as planned parenthood ($300m), The Corporation for Public Broadcasting ($535m), international organizations ($1.5b) which amount to a whole 0.467% of their proposed cuts.
The elephant in the room is that defense and VA account for 67% of all federal employees. That’s literally where most of the money goes – as far as salaries go. They’ve promised to reduce the federal workforce to a quarter.
Another factor is that red states and counties have some of the highest number of federal employees. If they’re going to make big cuts, it is literally impossible to not also fire their own voters. So let’s see how that plays out.
They want to make it so that military retirees get either their pension or disability, not both. This is in project 2025.
The GOP hates veterans. They love sending people to war, but once they return?
Thought experiment: if ANY other incoming president of either party (or parties that don’t even exist anymore) had nominated such complete jokes for his cabinet, would even the members of the evil Traitor Trump cult applaud them?
What Vance claimed was surely ridiculous, but for tRump to take it and use it in a presidential debate was an insult to one’s intelligence. Evidently some 74 million had none to insult.

Magats really admire JD Vance, or whatever his name is, for proclaiming that illegal Haitians were eating cats and dogs.
It’s the kind of thing magat heroes are made of.
.
They look forward to more magat heroics on an everyday basis.

Those Quasi kristo-pilgrims came with murder, enslavement, rape, and theft on their minds. Typical.

I’m dusting off and will reapply the bumpersticker I had during the reign of Bush the Incompetent on January 6th.
