    Such efficiency. Using military flights for show that transport less people, cost way more and take longer because they don't have the air space clearance of a regular flight. Good god these people are stupid.

    This is what people voted for. Don't get bogged down with the details of how much it cost.

    The optics of Musk's kid telling trump to "shut your fucking mouth" in the oval is just the absolute best summary of his second term.

    I can't believe the media isn't dancing all over that. You can imagine how many times Musk has said that to his kid for him to just blurt it out like that.

    edit: I realize there are several opinions as to what the kid said

    The media isn’t dancing all over that because all they do is suck up to the regime.

    im not exactly sure what was happening but the excuses are that he was talking to someone off camera or we misheard him. And honestly I tried to listen to it a few times and couldn’t understand it at all.  It’s also conceivable he was repeating was he’s heard his father say before.

    Well, if you consider the nation’s nuclear arsenal’s safety a “free handout”, yea I’m triggered but thanks to MAGA, DOGE and the all powerful, all seeing and all knowing COOTWH, I’ve been enlightened to the fact that having a safe nuclear arsenal is not necessary when tax cuts for billionaires are more important.

    Elon Musk’s Demolition Crew

    Change Appearance

    On President Donald Trump’s authority alone, Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, has been unleashed on federal agencies. Employees from Musk’s companies and those of his allies, as well as young staffers he’s recruited, are wresting authority from career workers and commandeering computer systems.

    While some have been public about their involvement, others have attempted to keep their roles secret, scrubbing LinkedIn pages and other sources of data. With little information from the White House, ProPublica is attempting to document who is involved and what they are doing.

    Musk’s team, known as the Department of Government Efficiency, has already thrown entire swaths of the federal government and its programs into disarray — programs that serve millions of Americans.

    Musk himself has made no secret of his intentions, saying that DOGE is a “wood chipper for bureaucracy” and that he is “deleting” agencies.

    A White House spokesperson wrote, “Those leading this mission with Elon Musk are doing so in full compliance with federal law, appropriate security clearances, and as employees of the relevant agencies, not as outside advisors or entities.” None of the people identified responded to requests for comment.

    A team of engineers who work for Musk’s SpaceX will visit the Federal Aviation Administration’s air traffic control system command center in Virginia as the Trump administration considers an overhaul of the agency, which was previously seen as exempt from government cuts. More than 300 FAA employees have been dismissed.

    AP reported that, “The employees were fired ‘without cause nor based on performance or conduct,’ Spero said, and the emails were ‘from an ‘exec order’ Microsoft email address’ — not a government email address.”

    Good to know unserious people get that make decisions with serious consequences.

    Well, if you consider the nation’s nuclear arsenal’s safety a “free handout”, yea I’m triggered but thanks to MAGA, DOGE and the all powerful, all seeing and all knowing COOTWH, I’ve been enlightened to the fact that having a safe nuclear arsenal is not necessary when tax cuts for billionaires are more important.
    There is no need to raise taxes on anyone. They get enough money. They would all be fired in any corporate setting for waste and basically stealing.

    Imagine Obama appointing Bill Gates to lead an agency, unnominated, unconfirmed, and given unfettered access to your personal information and power to gut agencies and fire entire workforces. 

    You’d all end up in mental institutions.
