Why do we care what Elon's mommy thinks? This is not "news."

davidkleeman.bsky.social•95 days ago

So, the adolescent, unelected shadow president has his mommy sitting in on meetings. Someone has to carry his adderall and juice boxes, I guess.

I could also easily cut a lot of $ off my annual budget - just don’t pay taxes , house payments , health insurance , electricity and water bills .

martinc7.bsky.social•95 days ago

Given the TOTAL annual discretionary spending is $1.7T I’d say it’s the opposite of very easy. I

Why are we listening to Elon Musk's mother about any fucking thing except if she's telling us he still wets his bed?

sarahchm.bsky.social•93 days ago

Who cares what Elon Musk’s mom said?

pnwwestcoast.bsky.social•95 days ago

Wondering why anyone would think it's reasonable to ask his mother about cuts to the federal budget. Bizarre -- especially given what the GOP will probably put on the chopping block -- programs for middle class and low income families -- often times essential programs to families.

So now his mommy is involved
.

thebarkinggallery.bsky.social•95 days ago

Is his mom Kris Jenner?

gern.bsky.social•95 days ago

Hopefully Eloon lays off Donold's Secret Service detail. It's so unnecessary.

julian-swearengin.bsky.social•95 days ago

Please, Peter. His mom is irrelevant. You work for the New York Times. Act like it.

Eleven have consequences! Voting is serious and people should learn everything about the candidates!

spartan47.bsky.social•95 days ago

Elections have consequences!

johngordon.bsky.social•95 days ago

First you eliminate the US Military ...

salmiyan.bsky.social•95 days ago

Someone actually gives a rat's incontinent ass about what she says? This is an embarrassment.

punchcolor.bsky.social•94 days ago

Hubris will be their undoing. When you are surrounded by people who never contradict you, you’re left with your delusions of grandeur.

keirney.bsky.social•95 days ago

Wgaf about Melons mom?

liberal-bias.bsky.social•95 days ago

Just eliminate Social Security. I'm sure it'll be fine.

ariabehbuh.bsky.social•95 days ago

I mean, if Elon Musk's mother, a model, doesn't know how to slash the debt of the biggest economy in the world, who would????

dougers00.bsky.social•95 days ago

Did that woman even finish high school?

deepbluesea2016.bsky.social•95 days ago

Who gives a flying fuck what the Apartheid biddy Maye Musk thinks?.

southpaw510.bsky.social•95 days ago

So, Elon's mother says it will be "very easy," huh? I guess she gained her expertise in US budget and fiscal matters from being rich all her life and having the richest man in the world as her son.

Easy Peasy.

cynthianevil.bsky.social•95 days ago

Anyone ask her who the hell her sunny bun thinks he is?
Did anyone ask her from where such authority might come?

I’m sitting here watching Christmas movies while hacking away at Japan’s defense budget.
Because I have precisely as much authority as that pasty dickbag.
And his mother.

ivanvonlipschitz.bsky.social•95 days ago

But they weren't as smart as Elmo and Donald Trump.

thecarpetgod.bsky.social•95 days ago

How about Elon’s mom F off and mind her own dam business

adamraphial.bsky.social•95 days ago

I usually try to get an oligarchs moms opinion before moving forward.

Peter Thiels mom still hasn't returned my email pertaining to my Toyota vs Honda decision.

detroiter.bsky.social•95 days ago

Maye Musk is a full on nazi.

l-thornton.bsky.social•95 days ago

Momma Musk is delusional, especially concerning her evil spawn.

tpk77.bsky.social•95 days ago

Yeah, but in Elon’s mom’s defense, she’s a deranged lunatic.

llamanollama.bsky.social•95 days ago

Tr** is a professional conman, he sets up people like Elon to fail while he takes as much money from him as he can, then he can say he did what he promised but people like Elon failed, not him.
