I am tired of looking at that stupid face; why pay attention to this obvious sycophant??

Would these two scions and heirs to the throne (MAGA leader) be in their present positions (Whatever these may be) if their last name started with M?
So what happened to the MERIT system Elon?

But a judge can declare a law as unconstitutional, thereby voiding the law's effectiveness!

Alina who??
comment in response to

He is a key member of the Cabinet! Has any other member been elected to their exalted position? NO
So let us forget about the non-election factor and rather ask directly to see concrete results of his efforts to detect fraud and waste! Come on Elon where is the transparency??

I would love to hear journalists ask President Trump directly in the White House what he plans on doing to correct this impending crisis!
Naming cronies as heads of diverse agencies is not going to help unless the bulk of employees continue to perform well! So far, no red alerts but for how long???

If SCOTUS grants more discretionary power to the executive branch, it will make a mockery of the fundamental doctrine of separation of powers!

I tried watching it with my wife; our verdict: complete trash!
No pop, at least not for intelligent people!

It doesn't make sense to celebrate a President's Day!
It gives the person in the White House, arguably the most powerful politician in the world, even more power!
Why not have a Speaker's Day, or a Mayor's Day, or a Voter's Day, etc..?

Ah yes, when we still used a comb😆😅

I haven' read anything to indicate that Trump is helping his former attorney the way he helped the mayor of New York!
I wonder why!🙄

We are all a little greedy because money would solve many problems for all the needy people; that's why we have the lottery and gambling, these are people hoping to become rich!
What they do eventually with their money is a different discussion!

First let us determine what kind of rich, because Bill Gates, for ex, has been extremely generous with his money, as is his ex wife!
comment in response to
post
Of course, there are exceptions with the Scions F ex, but the big ones like Gates, Elon, Bezos, the five Sharks, etc. are rich because of their high intelligence!

It all depends of course if saving your country means favoring a few at the expense of the many! Then it becomes more a completely skewed system reminiscent of Communism during the Cold War, in which a ruling elite exploited the rest with total impunity!
Sir, please explain in detail what you mean!

I tried Apple TV, twice, I was hoping to gorge on Foundation, a famous novel by Asimov that Apple made into a series!
What a disaster, to the point of stupidity!
They may have a good show once in a while, but I refuse to pay a good sum of money for a few shows!
Prime is far superior!

No Bill, very rich people are also very smart people, they are not rabid dogs to be put down!
I am sure you and many other people would love to be rich and your envy is quite obvious!
On the other hand they certainy have an obligation to pay their share of taxes!!

As religion has shown us, followers can become saints or demons; in both cases, they believe they have a divine mission!
The same is true for MAGA fans who keep their faith intact because..."so many people can't be wrong.."
These fans lack faith in themselves so they put their trust in one person!

One of the clear signs that laws no longer apply to an elite social group is the lack of accountability for illegally obtained wealth!
And if the laws are only applied to ordinary citizens the outcome may well be street violence!

It's called split personality (officially) and it has some good and some bad consequences!
The good ones allow to know yourself much better!
The bad ones are the faces of your friends who doubt your sanity!
Happens to me all the time🤣😂😍😜

Please expose the name of that disgusting lawmaker and let most people's indignation manifest itself against him/her!!

Should the government be handled like a for-profit company, thereby seeking efficiency and economy?
Or should it be a refuge for waste and fraud, thereby benefitting a few politicians?

Ask the man for proof before condemning his actions..

My comment is connected the photo op! What's the point if you are NOT running again??

The new agency has a leader called "The Chief Kook"

OMG, another?? Why not All of these lifetime politicians who have only one mission: how to get rich!

To even think of giving coins to a needy person smacks of avarice; anything less than a dollar bill is an insult unless you have a truck full!
What can you buy with 50 cents??

Elon has no ambition to conquer the world! He has enough work to last several lifetimes!
As a man with autistic tendencies, he only fears inadequacy!
Trump gave him a most important mission: "Clean up the government's finances", a herculean task that only a genius could carry out!
comment in response to

Federal govt employees are Not elected either and yet, they often oversee billions of dollars! Trump named Elon as a federal special employee/functionary, which is his right!

Well, he is not running again.... or is he??

Then give that food to OUR citizens in need of help!
Yes, there are American citizens who need food and that must come before aiding foreigners!
comment in response to

Is there ANY concrete proof that Elon is cutting costs for his benefit??
comment in response to
post
And how many American citizens are unable to obtain medications that could save their lives?
That HIV treatment for foreigners must be second to the needs of our population!
comment in response to
post
Yes, of course, hell is paved with good intentions!
The pork attached to USAID had become unsustainable as many expenses simply enriched a few politicians here and abroad! Time to cut the enormous amount of fat accumulated over 50 years and reshape the whole concept of foreign aid!

Are you sure that all judicial orders are obeyed?

Doesn't matter if you are familiar with the expression "fait accompli"
The team of advisers tell him that many executive orders will become 'fait accompli' and therefore will prevail in spite of lawsuits! So Musk and his team have "carte blanche' to make the cuts they deem necessary!

Si eres listo no dejaras que te metan basura en la cabeza!!

Disagree, his far right tendencies aside, he can accomplish a lot by cutting pork from all federal budgets!
We know how much our politicians like to appropriate roads to and bridges to nowhere, on top of $60 soaps for the military!
Enough is enough!

White female minister saying that Trump and God are the same thing???
Welcome to all the so-called Christian nutcases who preach racism and hate during Political Events!
Have we lost our ability to feel indignation and disgust at these violations of the concept of separation of church and state?

We often behaved like the British Empire as we imposed our will on banana republics in Latin America! Just ask Chile about Pinochet!
Should I add the incredible sight of Americans and Vietnamese clinging to helicopters while escaping the fury of the Vietcong!
NO, we are NOT loved in the world!

Well, it isn't the first time our reputation has suffered!
Our treatment of Japanese-Americans, for example, during WWII!
Our criminal rejection of a ship carrying hundreds of Jews during the same war and guess what happened to them!
The Bay of Pigs debacle and the Iranian attack of our embassy!
