Break it down and Build Back Better.

Easy now. You seem to be coming a touch unwound. I’m on board with humanitarian assistance. I suspect a majority are. You are free to turn every discussion into something about billionaires if that’s what does it for you. You left out hegemony. And to think one of your idiotic takes in the balloon thread was “the world doesn’t revolve around us”. Suffering of thousands! So ominous! So melodramatic. Good lord.

No. That would essentially be business as usual and no meaningful change would be affected. I’m fine with it being torn down to the studs. It won’t all be pretty. I wish people would include in their tweets what medicine is expiring and the dates of expiration. That way we could eliminate some hysteria.

Sure. You’ve hit the nail on the head. Truly brilliant.

I am on board with USAID delivering food, water, and medicine to those in need. I suspect that would be the 80 in the 80/20 proposition that’s trendy right now. All the other nonsense that makes up the 20 position that someone like you would support, can go.

You focus on that, and I will focus on the absurd use of funds in Washington and hope that a boatload of it gets dealt with. I’m good with seeing how it plays out. Others that rail incessantly about the gqp, elawn, fawks news, etc (I can’t believe you find those clever, super lame) can carry on as normal.

No idea at all. Seems unnecessary. For me, that’s barely part of the equation. Rooting out decades of malfeasance brought on by all of Washington both D and R is what interests me. That the matter is being driven by Trump and Musk is what bothers many, more so than the waste, fraud, and corruption. That’s weird to me. To a deep thinker like yourself that makes me nothing more than a “fanboi”. So be it.

That’s some deep thinking. 🤦🏻🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♂️ All you had to do was say yes.

The reason a rando, or maybe even a manager in the state department purchasing organization would make the change is because even though nothing untoward has occurred, the appearance of impropriety is there. That’s typically to be avoided in government contract work and the ethics ostensibly found therein.

How much sway do you think the bad orange man had in the state department in December? Blinken lending him an ear? Modifying purchase orders because that’s what Trump wanted? At least you have agreed that Maddow misled her viewers.

She spread misinformation by allowing her brain addled viewers to believe this is something that just occurred rather than something that started under the previous administration. Plain enough? You should say please next time.

It would be more accurate to call it an error of omission. My apologies. By leaving out the genesis of the proposed purchase, she misled her viewers. That’s how you got where you are right now.

Maddow “reported” erroneous information. That you and the rest of her paltry audience bought it is no reason to not set the record straight.

It’s not possible that someone in the state department procurement department made the change? It had to be one of Musk’s nerds sneaking in and doing it? The story had already broken and the procurement docs no longer refer to Tesla. I’m not ok with 400M being earmarked for armored EV’s no matter who makes them. You?

Not a fan of the guy but Greenwald’s comment is on target.

More please

You were under the assumption that a contract was in place. It isn’t. I would think a government employee such as yourself would understand that these things frequently “evolve”. With no further data available to judge it on at the moment, an expenditure of 400,000,000 for armored EV’s (as the documents have been amended to read) is absolutely absurd.

I understand how attention to detail can get lost in the shuffle when there’s a nonstop need for outrage. Your comment - “did they not just give Elon a nice big context (sic) for his blah blah blah…” Reality - no contract has been awarded and none is planned for many months if at all. Sorry about that but you make yourself a fool. I just highlight your success at it.

They did not. You should tell people they did though. Drum up some indignation.

Key takeaways from the democrat former-congressman: ”pathetic response” and “democrats are getting steamrolled”. Such a shame.

Who will be first to hand wave away “large scale social deception”? Roundy or Daz?

Think how good it would be for everyone if your party had not sh*t the bed so badly. Seems like they should do some introspection but they are too busy singing protest songs as they try to fight back against scrutiny of government spending. I’ll be fine. Like you, I’ve got bank.

It’s stunning that your party sh*t the bed so badly that Donald TRUMP could be elected to the presidency TWICE. That’s pretty bad. According to you, by the slimmest of margins this time. That’s some really good analysis. Either way, I guess people are tuning out the over emotional Tiberius and C-Section types. Rage on as you continue to do things for people. Only 3 years 48.5 weeks to go.

Nice work TRUMP No word on if Area 15 was affected. 4th&d0ng will update.
