Mike Johnson and Republican elected officials are learning that their Faustian bargain for power now means they serve two masters: Donald Trump, a criminal, and Elon Musk, the richest man on Earth.
Brilliantly written. If I were the Democrats, I let them sink and shut down the government. The sooner people realize that Trump and Musk and all his miscreants don't give a "rat's buttocks" about the American people, the sooner they might come to their senses before it's too late.
It's already too late. Trump's elected. Republican Senators are afraid of Trump's base and being primaried. The House is gerrymandered for safe seats for lunatics. Musk is telling Trump (who's mental deterioration is really obvious) what to do.
You're right. Maybe Dark Brandon will show his moxie and find some way to keep Trump out of office. Can't imagine that Joe Biden would allow it, but one never knows.
I have an inkling there is a lot going on, quietly, and secretly behind the scenes. The reason we hear nothing but crickets. OR •••? Just a guess, is this a - ‘Let them eat cake,’ moment? Give them what they asked for? A most teachable time in History, Hell to pay!
I agree. The only sound we've heard from Vance was the expected "thank you" visit by Daniel Penny (shades of Kyle Rittenhouse). Musk doesn't have the temperament and political savvy of the Heritage Foundation-the puppet master. Musk is nothing but a distracting court jester to keep cognitively sane and intelligent minds (more of us than THEM) from focusing on the bigger pictures.
🔝The terrible truth, nailed to the wall! Depressing depiction of the future, sadly, yet good to be for-warned! Hell to Pay! Many who voted for the pathological liar, who literally has the same IQ, 73, equal to a child in the 3rd grade. < Yes, that is the verified Truth! When Trump was in the White House, his aids were concerned about his mental capacity to handle the job, they convinced him to take an IQ test, (without insulting him) I will never forget watching him brag that “he was really smart! Smarter than everybody!” As he held up a test card with 6 animals, a tiger, elephant, wolf, etc. And Trump said, “I aced it! I am very smart! Smarter than anyone!”. That explains, why he makes up silly names to call people, Trump is a bully! Mentally still in 3rd grade. And the oligarchs, put that moron in charge of America! They assume they can control him, how very wrong they are..
Right. Guess what the answer to the question "Who's going to do all the work that nobody wants to do when we get rid of all the immigrant workforce?" is?
I doubt there is any room for introspection on part of MAGA. Most are set up to suffer under what this oligarchy intends to do but will explain it away. Same thought process as the gun loving folk who say nothing can be done to curb gun violence except add more guns to the issue. Or Catholics who continue to be led by an organization that explains away pedophilia. Or those who stay in abusive situations. Or those who think everything happens for some mystical reason…
The sooner Trump gets annoyed at Musk's omnipresence and sends him out of the country the better. Certainly Trump made a deal with Musk before Musk lavished him with cash, but Trump stiffs his creditors and probably will do the same to Musk. Vivek, Sancho Panza to Musk's Don Quixote, might stick around a little longer, but he'll be sent to work on the loading dock soon too. Waj, your assessment is spot on. I would add that like alcoholics and other addicts, the US may have to hit rock bottom before it acknowledges it's got a problem, one of collective idiocy and cheap sensation addiction.
Musk literally has all the data of the largest database in the world AND probably "the codes." He's waltzed in with no security clearance and taken it all. That is enormous leverage. Let us not forget that Trump is an old school white collar criminal and these silicon valley ones are at a whole nuther level. Musk is biding his time, but he can literally hold all of us hostage at this point. He will definitely steal it to attempt to scale his crap AI to an epic level to compete with the others and maybe use it to shut down Open AI so he can swoop in and force his rival Sam Altman out. Then he can merge those two to create the monster. Remember, there can be only one! These people are very competitive and have been ruthlessly gaming with each other since they were kids. They are basically letting Trump live right now until they are through with him.
The only thing I am looking forward to after January 20 (maybe even before then!!!) is watching the knives come out and imagining who will get gutted first, then second, and so on down the line. I'm especially eager to watch Trump and Musk go at each other. Oh, and watching Mike Johnson fall, and fall badly, and then I'll grab the popcorn for the shitshow of electing a new House Speaker. In other words, the ONLY comfort I am taking in Trump 2.0 is the prospect of watching them self-destruct. I hope and pray they'll get so busy killing each other off that they'll forget about the rest of us and leave us be.
Was just having a chuckle imagining the moment that turnip completely loses his shit and "fires" ketamine-pumpin' Elmo. I hope cameras are rolling. There just cannot be someone with a bigger ego around the turnip. Can't handle it! He prefers his bevy of elderly milquetoast neutered senator handmaidens and his mob of insurrectionist loons. Oh I can't wait.
The Republicans are great at waste. Waste money, waste time, waste taxpayer dollars, waste resources, waste the earth. They've taken it to an art form.
Over the past eight years, Trump and the RepublicSCAM party, have wasted an astounding amount of taxpayers time and money. With trumps reckless handling of covid, the fraudulent investigations, felony indictments etc.... there's much more to come. DOGE can start there if they want to stop government waste. In two years hopefully impeachment will be on the table. Remove the waste from the top down. RESIST!!!
I'm not even sure the rich are getting richer with Trump tariffs and mass deportations—look at what happened with the stock market. Basically the only winner is Elon's drug dealer!
Thank you for always calling out the BS. Also, when it comes to Elon, please make sure you start to highlight Peter Thiel. He’s the one advising both Elon and Trump, especially around policies around AI and loosening tech regulations so it benefits him. Thiel also owns Palantir, which freaks me out because it has government contracts that are top secret and I bet that Trump will OK using their tech to snoop on American citizens for nefarious reasons. Thiel is much more behind the scenes this time, but he’s equally as dangerous as Elon and we have to be able to call that out.

Elected, yes. But constitutionally eligible to SERVE?

It's either one, or the other. It's either they're caring and smart behind the scenes and planning the right thing
Or they're revealed as just ambitious ordinary people caught in history.

I can’t understand why they are more afraid of a primary than living in a dictatorship.

The above post was to Waj.
Thanks, Waj. You tell us the truth - no sugar coating. Just plain FUCKED.
AND NO ONE IS COMING TO RESCUE US POOR FOLKS AT THE FUCKING BOTTOM.
Being ignorant of the body politic has consequences. Suffering from the illusion of choice led you here.
Right. Guess what the answer to the question "Who's going to do all the work that nobody wants to do when we get rid of all the immigrant workforce?" is?
US!
Nicely said, thank you so much for your voice and for being the ever shortening list of truth tellers. I sure do appreciate you. Peace.

"Kingdom of God" has a very long history as a term, just sayin. . . mind control is a real thing.

Saving this assessment so others will take note of your prescience.

Mike Johnson just said to a reporter, that yes, he is seriously considering limiting aid to California of they don't stop "certain policies."
This is war. These nihilistic morons have come in a Trojan Horse.
I’m good with your scenario!
Musk needs to be deported.
He's both an illegal alien AND a welfare mom. And probably eats cats.
The Republicans are great at waste. Waste money, waste time, waste taxpayer dollars, waste resources, waste the earth. They've taken it to an art form.
I always wonder just what the guys who want to 'own the libs' would actually do if they , er, owned one.
What's the modern equivalent of picking cotton?
Putting up with internet trolls that are not fucking funny

As soon as Musk starts stealing the limelight from Trump there will be a brawl. This will be really “interesting” with the king of Twitter.
Bingo 🎯 I want it televised with the soundtrack of loudly emptying bowels
WHEW! As the elders say, it IS what IT IS!! No hoods or sheets or goosestepping in funky cowboy boots!
I'm not even sure the rich are getting richer with Trump tariffs and mass deportations—look at what happened with the stock market. Basically the only winner is Elon's drug dealer!
Elon is gunning for Speaker of The House. It doesn’t have to be a member of Congress.
Yep
Which might mean he has rules to follow.

Always outstanding👏👏🏅🏅
