Does America want all unelected people making decisions in government gone?

[White 6]

How can he abuse it except to benefit the taxpayer?

You're sh#tting me, right? You really do trust altruistic nature of Elon Musk, to the point of not even seeing the absolute power or that control. Well, I hope he is as good a man as you think.

 

[White 6]

So you have no problem with USAID funding terrorists. Typical TDS sufferer.

Your words of "no problem" not mine. Nice try, though.

 

[Rogue AI]

Why do you trust Elon with this control?

What control? Musk makes recommendations. No problem here unless one is disingenuous. Oh, I get it now.

$15 billion plus so far from the government, with much more on the way.

It must be good to be an oligarch!

Why don't we talk about Tyson Foods, shall we?

Tyson Foods supplies retail and food service to customers throughout the U.S. and approximately 130 countries. With more than $15 million in federal contracts with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the company supplies the federal government with meat products, including chicken, beef and pork.

How about Brown & Root.

BTW, who's gonna build all of those electric cars? Do you want to turn the contract over to the Chinese?

To be frank, and this is for me, I never trusted Biden nor anybody working for him. It is refreshing to see we now have a party interested in fixing the Federal Government.

DC with Musk in charge is like Moscow with Stalin in charge.

Just like with the Insurrection, they're downplaying all of this.

The Insurrection was just a protest that got a little out of hand, and this is just some patriotic souls controlling an evil government.

These people are either literal fascists themselves, or they are ignorant, willing pawns for fascists.

Not clear how long a time span but each party collects 279.92 due the complaint by feds.

As of November 2024, the federal government employed just over 3 million people. The number of federal employees has topped 3 million since September 2024. The last time the government could claim that many employees was in September 1994.


Think of the savings!!

However, Elon works for free from what I hear, in fact, he is the only one that works for free.

How many people work for the federal government? | USAFacts

The federal government employed about 2.9 million people in 2025, making it the nation's 14th largest workforce.

Trump works for free too.

Trump works for free too.

He can because grifting pays better than working.

That is what we thought, until it turned out, he came with his own computer geek. He now has not only viewing but ability to stop payment. Much easier than going through process, I guess.

 

[westwall]

Bondi was called a shill by somebody?

I did not know Zuck paid $400 mill to buy 2020 Biden election, as this first time I have seen that number or heard it said.

Reports are, he does have direct control access, at this time.

Then you have been living under a rock.

Not sure about fix, (I'd give it a "maybe") but definitely controlling, whether good or bad. We will just have to wait and see. I never trust any politicians, since Nixon as Pres, and Ray Blanton as Governor, those of course being malevolent examples. Most Presidents actually have good intentions, as they see it.

Two things:
The law of unintended consequence is a real *****.
The path to hell is paved with good intentions.

Good luck, frank.

You must be a fan of Airplane, that comic movie. Did you trust Biden or even Obama? You must know Ihave proven many times how Obama tried to overthrow Trump. He issued a report by the US intelligence and the report says it is issued with permission of Obama. Democrats should have had good intentions trying to impeach Trump or later convict Trump. But what would that mean to Democrats?

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

As the Left melts down as they throw tantrum after tantrum because Elon Musk, who has not been elected directly by the people, is making governmental decisions, is everyone alright with getting rid of all unelected officials?

That would be awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What a dumb thread. Of course, the debate is over the gravity of the decisions being made and actions being taken.

The Russians lust after Melania. Her nudes are on their entertainment channels for everyone’s amusement.

What BlueAnon silliness is this? You loons and your conspiracy theories are hilarious.

Lord no. Definitely the same for SonofaBush, Bill, Daddy Bush, Father Ron or Jimmy. I trusted Dick Nixon, but look where that got us. Of course, I was 18 at the time, but between Republican Nixon and the Democratic sitting Governor of Tennessee displace that year, due to selling State of Tennessee Pardons, along with liquor licenses to the highest bidders. This broke me at that young age of trusting a politicians. If you disagree, you are either highly partisan or an easily fooled babe in the woods, depending on the kindness of strangers in a strange land.

I may be the most experienced with politicians on this very forum. I hated Nixon for being a republican. I was then a super loyal Democrat. I personally met my public speaking teacher in high school who happened to have been a mayor of Hayward, Ca and later in the House of the California congress. He did not keep chatting politics to we students but he sure could get on our nerves. After him, I met Bill Lockyer who then was in the CA house of representatives and tried to talk to him about CA education. He showed up because we paid for his fine dinner.
Bill no more gave a shit about education than your current crop of democrats. He refused to discuss it at all. What he wanted to talk to me about was Bridge tolls. I am not kidding. What realtor did not want to discuss tolls? Not me nor the others in my group. I did not talk to but I was one of a group of Directors who listened to Leon Panetta give us one of his speeches. He showed up for our swearing in as directors of the CA association of ?Realtors and we collectively represented 135,000 people.

Do you know what Politics stands for? Poli meaning many and Tics are blood sucking insects.
