They only have to shut it down until Jan 3. Once the Republicans take control of Congress, they can pass any bill they want, without any Democratic priorities. Biden will be forced to sign it. Otherwise, he takes full responsibility for the shutdown.
Great. America is being run by Putin, a drug-addled Afrikaaner nazi power-hungry swine, and a senile yam-complected diaper-shitting pedophile rapist brainless fraudster.
I am convinced that on Election Night 2016, those idiots at the CERN supercollider ripped a hole in space-time & we all got sucked into an alternate hell-universe while back in our home universe, Hillary's finishing a 2nd term, Mayor Pete will be the next POTUS, & Trump is rotting in a cage in Gitmo
The tail isn't waging the dog, a flea is.
Oligarchy, the unconventional way, is whose the biggest, the other Doge, is just a meat sock. But Putin was 47 & knew excommunism as Yeltsin danced off drunk.
The Boston tea party & anti healthcare is US external unelected forces, now it's on the inside!
The funny thing is, if the government shuts down he can't launch his rockets...so don't pass it...let government shut down for a few months...with his rockets sitting there unable to get approval, or support from the government to fly them...
Snorting Special K for 4 hours.
Can we go back to the 80s when Eddie Van Halen snorted Coke and wrote Panama at 4am? 2024 4am -Nerd King reads Dune high, snorts Ketamine and heads to Twitter..Pathetic
Excuse me but Elon Musk is not an elected member of either House or Senate and he has no standing in any other body that reports into the Constitution of the United States. IGNORE HIM.
How are the shareholders of his companies not in revolt over this stuff? He’s not physically present, he can’t really be all that mentally present while spending this much time posting garbage.
He’s neglecting his companies almost as much as the rest of kids not riding his shoulder as a prop in FL.
They’re going to collectively need to band together and get him sent to Guantanamo or he’ll be the reason they get beheaded when this turns into direct democracy… their choice
Started here. Trump instructed Johnson to kill bi-partisan border bill-did, so Trump can use immigration in campaign. Now Trump instructed him to kill gov't funding bill w/o debt ceiling increase-did. What happens when play games w/elections. Get a dictator, elites & oligarchs serving own interests!
Why do news reports talk about this “department of government efficiency” as if its a real government entity with statutory power and not the scam it is?
But but but Kara are you saying king musk bought & paid for this country republicans to bow at his feet . king musk won’t care about his people and also why he doesn’t want government to count self driving tesla crashes . But hey PINO will eat so don’t worry about that!
so not only are we normalizing Elon Musk is a usurper to the throne of the USA, but we normalize he dispenses his diktats via arrogant, insulting, and lie-filled tweets
Reminder: Musk is supposedly a CEO at multiple companies. Investors need to ask themselves, are they getting their money's worth from his compensation?
Screw the investors. As long as it keeps the terrible CEO away and curries favor with the great leader then it’ll be good for business. The investors are on his side, not the people’s.
How does he have time to do all that CEOing and read a 1500 page bill before anyone else, and set records playing Diablo 4, and undermine democracy all at once. He really is efficient.
Yeah? Well I won’t get paid now. I’m part of the deep state that looks after developmentally disabled adults for a living. And this man, though his musings may intrigue you, will destroy my life.
Get information out. Boycott CNN January 19 and 20. No cable, no Sirius, no streaming.
Power of the people to reject gaslighting and sane washing. Advertisers will see the drop in viewership.
Ahead of you. No news sites/TV news and/or need channels since the sane washing began this year. No Google suggested news links have been clicked (muted all notifications for those).
Exactly what I was thinking. And really, shouldn't Elon be doing something/anything w at least some of his companies? Seems to be nothing but a figurehead w the real ones and spends most of his time destroying Twitter and sequestering himself at Maralago.
They recognize that they are lies but they are sensing where the power is moving to. Yikes America - how could you let this pack of pirates take over your Country.
I guess attempting to cover up Tesla steering wheels malfunctioning, coming off & people dying is…not criminal, unconscionable, outrageous, horrible, insane, crazy — is fine, just fine — not a crime. Really?? 😒🚗🚙
Prez Musk and his puppet Trump want a government shutdown as there’s no requirement that furloughed federal workers be back paid for the time that they are furloughed during a shutdown. This might be a nefarious way they get many of them to quit and/or to cut spending.
The billionaires decide and the GOP Congress follows their orders. Used to done behind closed doors and via emissaries. Now, thanks to President Musk, we all know.
great I am not on twitter anymore then. I could not take any more of his inane pushed posts and throttling of posts - and the nutjobs and bots reposting BS
I had already planned to make quitting Twitter a 2023 resolution, but after 2-3 days of seeing his tweets despite not having him on my feed as a follow?
Noped out of there so hard. Didn't save any tweets. Just deleted them all one by one, then nuked the account.
It actually tells me absolutely nothing. Just that he opposes it. There is NO EXPLANATION OR REASON given for the opposition. Typical Republican dreck.
Remind me: who is Musk? Is he actually a citizen and what position does he hold? Is this a real position or a reality tv position? Do other countries think this is real? Wait! Is this real? This isn’t real. CUT!!!
Well it’s clear that the people who elected Trump and his VP Musk are the very ones who will be hurt when Musk starts his crazy cuts to government spending. Hope they enjoy the next 4 years.
Time to start making daily calls to our congress people and tell them to kill their raise, then pass the bill as soon as possible. Let CF47 fend for himself.
Does it matter to anyone that Musk is not an elected official...or that he does not care one iota about the people who will be harmed by a government shut-down?
A bill that kept the govt functioning over the holidays. A bill that provided hurricane relief and social security for seniors. A bill that was a bipartisan agreement
I had a great reply to this but my first & last iPhone deleted it so I have to pay to find it in the $ icloud. I can’t wait to go back to Android. iPhones feel like dinosaurs now. The mouthpiece enabled the buying. My erased reply was a lot better then that!
I don’t understand why Musk or anyone thinks a shutdown benefits them politically. It’s infantile to think just turning the government off solves anything.
Bezos swore he wouldn’t interfere with WaPo content. 🤥🤥🤥🤥👖🔥 I asked a delivery person if it was true Bezos was really giving the expanded benefits to Amazon employees he’s been flogging for PR. She said yes it’s true, but we’re all contract workers now & get NOTHING but the measly hourly pay.
It’s all a PR ploy. I was so disappointed too. But makes sense, doesn’t it. I think we were supposed to think it’s his fiancee’s(?) influence. Real #smh
I'm pissed GOP put in a Cost of Living RAISE for themselves! A Congress who can't pass a bill.
They did nothing for two yrs but hold stupid costly hearings against Biden, all for Trump's election & turns out a confession Bidens rec'd NO $$ from Burisma!
Americans need $$ & relief from GROCERIES!
If only technology journalists had written about what was obvious to anyone with any perceptivity all along instead of spending years and years writing puff pieces about the guy and hailing him as a revolutionary genius who will transform our world for the better.
Enough middle-of-the-night mania to spare between this guy and Trump. Not so fond memories of when Trump went ballistic every Shabbos when Ivanka and Jared were at shul and couldn't babysit.
I think he is having a mental breakdown. The power went to his head and blew a fuse. Total system overload and impending shutdown. May need to take more ayahuasca.
Ronny Jackson might hang around and RFK Jr. LOVES LOVES LOVES drugs. I’m sure Don Jr. takes oxys to “come down” from cocaine. There’s that recent video of him sticking something in his upper cheek and I’m convinced it was a time-release oxy.

Hell of a thing to be America's epitath.

This should be shouted as far and wide as possible across Trumplandia.
President Musk will help them increase their bottom line.
😍 hes so hardworking 😍

So it's down to that, BBC global news, and foreign newspapers in languages I can read for news these days.

No matter what the party, negotiations happen behind the scenes with few and party gets a summary to vote on.
I also don't think our officials have the reading comprehension to read it
This is “Deep Thoughts by Ketamine Guy.”
Not a quote or repost by anyone I followed there. Nope. Just... Random EM post pushed on my feed.
At first I thought it was a fluke. It wasn't.

BTW I Love your podcast! #karaswisher
Mike Johnson admitted that he was on a text chain w/ Musk and Vivik all night (he says it must’ve been midnight)
