Sounds like Rex Tillerson's assessment of Trump applies to Musk too.

PRESIDENT Musk knows he is in control of the trumpster.

Any normal extremely rich entrepreneur presides over his business ventures and in his free time enjoys the fruit of his toil with his family and friends. Some also provide assistance to charitable institutions of choice. basically they enjoy a good life, working hard and playing hard. This one ?

And to think, at the end of all Musk’s DOGE cuts in spending, they are going to turn around and give an even bigger tax cut to themselves and the top 1%. We, the bottom 99%, won’t get tax cuts, in fact, our taxes will go up and we will have gotten totally screwed because we won’t have a Fed Gov’t.

My 59-yr-old husband is depending on continued RESEARCH into multiple myeloma, an incurable, 100% relapsing disease. He’s in remission right now, after a stem-cell transplant and chemo with new drugs developed through RESEARCH. When his cancer returns, we need RESEARCH to find the next treatment.

I’m curious,do you happen to know if there are patients in the MIDDLE of their trial cycles who have had to STOP receiving their transfusions because of this?I have a MAGAt asking me this and I don’t have any answer.My dtr used to be a clinical research coordinator for cancer trials but she quit.Ty!

delawaresue.bsky.social•11 days ago

I found an article describing U of Penn’s program, which is where my husband’s myeloma specialist is located. Looks like existing trials are continuing after a week’s halt, but no new trials can begin. http://www.thedp.com/article/2025/02/penn-nih-dei-funding-activity-freeze

Thank you for letting me know! I think I responded in another post, but still praying your husband stays in remission. 💙

But despite Musk’s empty protestation, that's what’s happening. On Friday, the Trump administration—under the Department of Government Efficiency’s direction—announced it would cut billions of dollars in biomedical research funding, scheduled to take effect by Monday.

Apparently destroying America from inside is the goal

fgump-777.bsky.social•11 days ago

They only know how to destroy that's what their sick greed driven is agenda is all about.Making it great requires creating something better not destroying things and destroying lives.

Mr. Know-It-All isn't as smart as he thinks he is.

Maybe we should just add this to the ever-growing list of things that sound easier, back in the ketamine vape/blunt circle, than in real life, huh Elon?

This is why firemen hold the nozzle of the hose walking into the fire. He’s holding it 10 feet back and it’s whipping all over the place including back on him.

Must've been Mr. Bolz

Sounds like Musk needs a DID (multiple personality) evaluation.

craigstrimel.bsky.social•11 days ago

What stuns me about his reply is that he might, somehow, not know how all this works.
