Joe Ferguson forever Posted February 13 Posted February 13 (edited) So, heard this reporter on npr talking about Musk as liberal, voting for Obama twice and I think, Clinton. And then he had a reverse epiphany and became alt right doing the things we see here and supporting the German right extremists. And they pointed out that the timeline relates to an illegitimate kid of his coming out trans. So is this just anger and denial or does he want to become the first trillionaire or both? Your thoughts? Edited February 13 by Joe Ferguson forever

Elon doesn’t need the money - believe me when I say this, he wants Freedom and Democracy for this country. Full disclosure - I lived in Washington for over 25 years. I started and owned one of the largest private intel analysis companies in the world (since sold and retired). I consider myself a Libertarian. Living in the area, i have plenty of contacts throughout the federal sector. I can tell you it’s corrupt as hell - on both sides of the isle. What Trump and his administration is doing is beyond anything I’d thought I would see. I’m not going to bash you, because what the American public has been fed via mainstream media is utter lies. You don’t know what you don’t know. Just dig deeper and open yourself to what is being exposed. These politicians need to be held accountable - Dems and Republicans. Go Bills! I'd rather not have to believe you. I have no idea why you'd "believe" Elon to be anything more or less than government scum. Let's just stick to verifiable transparency. Can you give me one legitimate reason for this: On Wednesday evening, DOGE advisor Katie Miller wrote on X that Musk's group is protected by the Presidential Records Act. Under that act, DOGE records would remain sealed until 2034, five years after Trump leaves office and eight years after DOGE is set to disband. Do you think Elon Musk should answer to Congress?? It would be near impossible trying to argue, that with like 5 executive orders under judicial review in a couple weeks, that there's not a legitimate legislative purpose for it.

daz28 Posted February 13 Posted February 13 (edited) Donald trump, live on television, said he would be responsible for covid relief payment oversight. So he's responsible for the $1 trillion in fraud: Haywood Talcove, CEO of Lexis Nexis Risk Solution, described to lawmakers the different kinds of criminals exploiting U.S. government benefits systems, pointing out that Covid relief provided a windfall of over $1 trillion to those criminal elements. “Outdated government systems permit criminals to access unlimited sums of money. During the pandemic, they stole $1 trillion dollars, 70 percent of those dollars went overseas. Shockingly, it’s just not criminals exploiting the system, it’s the flawed system itself acting as the accomplice. If left unchecked, the U.S. government will continue to lead the world in funding cyber criminals,” Talcove said. How much is in that republican tax cut for billionaire's budget bill for updating the systems? Edited February 13 by daz28
BillsFanNC Posted February 13 Posted February 13 (edited) 6 hours ago, reddogblitz said: $20,000,000 trips to the Super Bowl for President Trump and leaving at 1/2 time are unnecessary in the government. As aren't mega million dollar weekly trips to Florida. Come on man, walk the walk if you're really serious about this. Wait, so Trump leaving a 34-0 game at halftime is wasteful? I'd argue staying is a bigger waste of time and money, and rest assured if he had stayed the reliable media would have said exactly that. Meanwhile....no transparency!

BillsFanNC Posted February 13 Posted February 13 When I worked in corporate America we would routinely just take a day at home to complete the useless but mandatory online training modules that had piled up. Better to knock them out all at once while "working from home" than be distracted in the office supposedly doing our actual jobs.
JDHillFan Posted February 13 Author Posted February 13 Key takeaways from the democrat former-congressman: ”pathetic response” and “democrats are getting steamrolled”. Such a shame. 1
Roundybout Posted February 13 Posted February 13 (edited) Increasingly convinced Elon has no idea what he’s actually doing, or he’s rage baiting MAGAs. As we see from an actual source: But folks on MAGA will remain foaming at the mouth. Edited February 13 by Roundybout 1
daz28 Posted February 13 Posted February 13 I wonder how you edit State Department documents with 'read-only' access: Billionaire Elon Musk — CEO of Tesla, SpaceX and X.com and leader of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) — is promising transparency and full disclosure with his DOGE efforts. But on Wednesday night, February 12, a U.S. State Department procurement document was edited to remove Tesla's name. This followed media reports of a $400 million contract for Tesla.

Don’t worry. @JDHillFan has assured us that this is fine and isn’t going to happen.

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?
