GOP the party for the people giving tax cut to the rich

 GOP Proposes $4.5 Trillion Tax Giveaway to the Rich While 'Ransacking' Food Stamps and Medicaid

House Republicans unveiled a draft budget resolution on Wednesday that calls for $4.5 trillion in tax breaks that would disproportionately benefit the wealthy while proposing $2 trillion in cuts to Medicaid, federal nutrition assistance, and other programs.

Is it trickling down yet?

Is it fucking trickling down yet?

We have had 40+ years of this horse-and-sparrow economics and so far all we have had to show for it is eating shit in front of obese horses.

Now they are telling us that the fat horses need to be fed even more than they already are, when many of the rest of us will literally starve for it.

So when do our tax dollars that we have been handing over to the rich, to make our food more expensive, our housing more expensive, our healthcare more expensive, trickle back down to us?

Unelected South African Immigrant is threating defy judicial rulings

 Musk’s Threats Suddenly Darken as Trump Legal Losses Trigger MAGA Fury

Rage is mounting among President Donald Trump’s allies over the losses that Trump’s agenda has suffered in court, which are clearly becoming a serious obstacle to him. It’s gotten so bad that Elon Musk shared a tweet from someone who suggested that it may be time to defy the courts. Musk also boosted Trump allies who are seething over these rulings. All that amounts to a pretty dark threat from Musk: He and MAGA appear to be steeling themselves to defy judicial rulings. 

 Definitely worth noting that person is Vice President J.D. Vance.

Vice President of the United States is suggesting defying judicial rulings.

The fact that the vice president is ready to go full autocrat is probably more news worthy than Musk being ready to seize power. Musk is the unelected defacto president, of course he is all for shattering any checks on his power.

Vance has been ready for that for a while. In 2021 he said:

"I think what Trump should do, if I was giving him one piece of advice: Fire every single mid-level bureaucrat, every civil servant in the administrative state, and replace them with our people. And when the courts stop you, stand before the country and say, 'The chief justice has made his ruling. Now let him enforce it.'"

The party of fiscal conservatism everybody.

House Republicans unveil blueprint to extend $4.5 trillion in tax cuts and lift the debt ceiling 

House Republicans released a budget plan Wednesday that sets the stage for advancing many of President Donald Trump's top domestic priorities, providing for up to $4.5 trillion in tax cuts and a $4 trillion increase in the debt limit so that the U.S. can continue financing its bills.

Turns out it was social conservatism and fiscal shell games all along.

They say they want to cut shit so America can use that money to pay off its debt.

Then they cut shit while raising the debt limit and extending tax cuts that overwhelmingly benefit the wealthy.

And this isn't new. This is a pattern with them. They do this shit every time they get Congress.

And yet, somehow, so many very stupid people who are unable to recognize patterns couldn't shut up about how it was Harris who abandoned the working class. 

Transgender sex changes in jail for illegal aliens tricked millions into voting against their interests. It's unreal...

Also Republicans: "The national debt is too high!" (Whenever there's a Democrat in office.)


Fuck all of them.

Trump did that


Trumpers are gonna see how annoying that shit was.

Apparently Trump’s plan to bring down prices and inflation is to start trade wars to increase prices? How does that work?

Trump said he would lower prices, blamed groceries including bacon on Biden.

 

South African Apartheid Immigrant Musk some things I say will be incorrect


My boss would fire me if i spoke like that...

Who’s going to fire him, Vice President Trump?

So he gets to cut departments and fire people because he finds "mistakes" but it should be understandable if he makes mistakes while doing because "not everyone bats a thousand"?

And brain rotted MAGA applauds this idiot?

Then he said that we still shouldn’t be sending condoms. Then later he said that preventing the spread of diseases like Ebola or AIDS is something that USAID should be doing. The dude literally does not think one sentence ahead.

AOC called him the dumbest billionaire she's ever met. The more he's in front of a camera, the more that statement makes sense.

Look at Trump’s posture. Bought and paid for.

He’s Elon’s bitch.

There's never been a more weak President.

Art of the Trade and Trump blinked

 In the face of a trade war with America’s neighbors, Trump blinked

Trump’s classic political method is already on full display in his second presidency and helps explain the baffling chaos, brinkmanship and posturing of his tariff showdown with Canada and Mexico.

Punishing 25% levies on imports from America’s closest neighbors were due to come into force at 12:01 a.m. ET Tuesday, but Trump put his two-front trade war on hold, claiming he’d scored two big wins and major concessions.

But despite a White House victory lap, there’s a more convincing case that it was really Trump who backed away from a fight that could have caused severe economic pain.

Tremendous job at alienating your best friend and closest ally.

Lots of US states will notice this summer when the tourists don’t come. I came across some “Come visit X state!” ads on Facebook recently from various US state government tourist agencies and the comments were littered with Canadians saying (rather politely thankfully), “Yeah, No, Not happening” in many different ways.

The US pissed off the entirety of Canada. They pissed off the Quebecois and Albertans so badly that they became friends.

The Journal de MontrĂ©al has a great article about a food distributor canceling orders Monday morning and his suppliers in the US freaking out. Canada didn’t bend the knee, the US lobbyists representing farmers, construction companies , car makers, etc. all called to President they voted for and told him to cave. Putin’s agenda is all nice and all until it costs money.

Trump emptied California reservoirs

 2.2 billion gallons of water flowed out of California reservoirs because of Trump’s order to open dams

The US Army Corps of Engineers opened two dams on Friday in Central California and let roughly 2.2 billion gallons of water flow out of reservoirs, after President Donald Trump ordered the release with the misguided intent to send water to fire-ravaged Southern California.

Trump celebrated the move in posts to Truth Social post on Friday and Sunday, declaring, “the water is flowing in California,” and adding the water was “heading to farmers throughout the State, and to Los Angeles.”

There are two major problems, water experts said: The newly released water will not flow to Los Angeles, and it is being wasted by being released during the wet winter season.

You'll want to check back in the summer when California has no water reserved. 

Wonder how the farmers react to this. They, more than anyone else, should know how big of a waste this is. We LA residents already know.

It’s economic sabotage.  Farmers are going to need that water this summer and it is gone.

All family farms will go under and corporate farms will buy them all out. Although they voted for this, whether they knew it or not…

Trump is both vindictive and not very bright.

Trump pardoned January 6th rioter back in the jail

Pardoned January 6 Rioter Arrested in Texas for Soliciting Sex From a Minor

Andrew Taake, a convicted January 6 rioter who was recently pardoned by President Donald Trump, was arrested in Texas on Tuesday for an outstanding 2016 charge of online solicitation of a minor.

Taake was taken into custody at 11:30 a.m. by the Harris County District Attorney's Fugitive Apprehension Section, in coordination with multiple law enforcement agencies. Authorities tracked him to a residence in Leon County, where a surveillance operation confirmed his location before his arrest.


This list is from 1/30, it might not be up to date:

1 death by cop

1 arrest due to soliciting a minor- (now 2 apparently)

1 arrest on federal gun charges

1 dui - hit a couple celebrating their anniversary, killed the wife. Charged with vehicular manslaughter

1 CSAM (child sex abuse material)

And at least 7 more arrested awaiting indictment for unknown reasons.

Imagine if this were a Democratic pardon. Republicans and media world already be demanding the president's head on a platter.

But because it's Trump, it'll barely make a ripple.

I saw a comment today that was like "Biden was pardoning his criminal son while Elon and Trump are saving america" I was gonna respond but someone that far gone just can't be reasoned with.

... does a normal random sample of 1500 people commit crimes this fast?

I mean it's a lot so you'd expect a few crimes out of them as time goes on but I feel like it's pretty easy to randomly grab 1500 folks and not have a chomo and self deletion by cop within a few months.

They couldn't even go a couple weeks without committing new crimes.

What happened is the whole "trans are pedos" thing is a MASSIVE projection. It's GOP states that allow child marriage.

And Donald Chump

 



Anyone else thinking that he might have just... totally lost it? Like late Reagan, but worse, and his handlers are too busy looting the country to stop other people from filling their pockets, too? It honestly seems like he's just agreeing with whoever managed to talk with him alone last.

Musk somehow talks him into giving him direct access to the treasury.

Canada and Mexico talk him away from his crazy tariffs scheme by promising to do things they were already doing.

Zelenski secures ongoing military aid by promising access to minerals that are currently underneath the better part of the Russian army.

Now Bibi shows up, and talks Trump into taking over Gaza - a blasted wasteland with no resources, no infrastructure, and apparently no people since they're just going to "move 2 million Palestinians somewhere else" after 80 years of Israel trying and failing - in like, an afternoon?

It's like he's a senior citizen being talked out of his life savings by an Indian phone scammer. I would be genuinely worried that if one called him he'd turn over the entire US treasury in the form of Google Play gift cards, except apparently Elon Musk has already taken it.


President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that the United States will take over and own the Gaza Strip, adding that "the same people" should not be in charge of rebuilding and occupying the land.

So... how many invasions is that now? Greenland, Mexico, Canada, and now the Gaza Strip?

He's bringing back the draft for sure.

Trump is Elon’s bitch.

 Elon Musk Is President

He did not receive a single vote. He did not get confirmed. He does not receive a government paycheck.

The world’s richest man has declared war on the federal government and, in a matter of days, has moved to slash its size and reach, while gaining access to some of its most sensitive secrets. He has shaped the public discourse by wielding the powerful social-media site he controls and has threatened to use his fortune to bankroll electoral challenges to anyone who opposes him.

Elon Musk’s influence appears unchecked, triggering cries of alarm from those who worry about conflicts of interest, security clearances, and a broad, ill-defined mandate. But the Republican-controlled Congress has shown no desire so far to rein Musk in. There has never been a private citizen like him.

Every time Trump does a press conference, journalists just need to start asking:

“Can we actually ask Elon’s opinion on that first?”

“And what does Elon think about that?”

“But is that what Elon would do?”

“And is Elon onboard with that?”

Make it clear that Elon’s POV is the one they want, not Trumps, and let ego do the rest of the work.

This needs to be the narrative. Appeal to Trumps ego and narcissism. If he keeps seeing this, he'll give Elon the boot.

For a country so anti-immigrant.

An un-elected immigrant has taken over their government, thrown people out of office, seized information and power.

Shout it far and wide.

Trump is Elon’s bitch.

Trump Is a Clear and Present Danger to the Nation’s Security

Trump Is a Clear and Present Danger to the Nation’s Security

In his first days in office, Donald Trump has shown he is a clear and present danger to the security of the nation and the American people. As expected, like a mad emperor, he has served up red meat to his followers, struck out at his opponents, pursued his fickle fixations, while enforcing a craven public obeisance from the Republican Senate. Too easily lost in the whirl of insults, follies and menace, however, is the direct threat he now poses to American security.

It was apparent in his first administration. It was apparent when he illegally took secret documents to Mar A-Lago.

Yet every slow-walked and delayed his persecution because of a need to maintain norms, fear of MAGA rats, or they were synchophants. Trump will destroy any pretense that America is a serious global power. 

He also stacked both scotus and lower courts. Short of literally ordering a hit on him, which I guess in theory Biden could have done, there’s only so much you can do outside of the justice department.

He’s gonna fuck up the world. The dynamics in the world are already shifting with our allies. We’re gonna have Europe parked in Greenland when we (USA)don’t belong there and they have way better things to do.

The damage he is doing to the U.S. in terms of its standing in the world is permanent. No other country will ever trust the U.S. again not to elect another narcissistic moron in future hell bent on doing as much damage as possible to everyone who doesn’t agree with their world view.

He's a full-fledged dictator loyal to Russia that's dismantling the country, and has the support of all branches of government plus the military. The time to stop him would have been before he got back into office.

Trump rewriting the history of the January 6th insurrection

Trump DOJ scrubs entire Jan. 6 Capitol riot database from the web

The removal of the content comes just days after President Donald Trump pardoned anyone for “offenses related to events that occurred at or near the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021.”

Under the Biden administration, the web hub for the Washington, D.C. District Attorney’s Office housed a repository of more than 1,200 Capitol breach cases, which included PDFs of the case filings for each defendant. The office also periodically released data on new arrests and case resolutions, and information about how to provide tips to the FBI. 

As of Tuesday afternoon, this content was removed. The URL for the case database now leads to a “Page not found” placeholder. 

All archived here:

Term or age limit



Rep. Virginia Foxx, 81, Slips and Falls on First Day of New Congress

Foxx, 81, is the most recent elderly lawmaker to have hurt herself while on the job. Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, 84, was admitted to a hospital after sustaining a hip injury in Luxembourg. She required surgery and was seen without her signature stilettos when the House of Representatives reconvened Friday.

 Maybe we shouldn't be electing senior citizens to plan the future of the country.

If the US an have a minimum age for president they damn well can have a maximum age. I know it'll never happen because the US government is run by dinosaurs, but people can still dream.

Pelosi fell, McConnell fell, this lady fell, Kay Granger is locked in a memory care unit…

Congress is a nursing home/hospice

"During her time in office, Foxx was one of the 11 members of Congress to vote against the $51 billion aid package to victims of Hurricane Katrina. She also introduced the Preserving Employee Wellness Programs Act in 2017.

She later voted against both articles of impeachment in 2019 for former President Donald Trump, with her also being one of the 147 Republican lawmakers who objected to the certification of electoral votes from the 2020 presidential election on January 6, 2021.

Foxx is an opponent of the Affordable Care Act, saying that "we have more to fear from the potential of the Affordable Health Care for America Act passing than we do from any terrorist right now in any country." In 2022, Foxx voted against the Respect for Marriage Act to codify same-sex and interracial marriage rights federally."

Wow. Really a servant of the people, this one.

Trump golf tour has begun

https://trumpgolftrack.com/

Trump visited a Trump Organization property on 428 (nearly one in three) of the 1,461 days of his first presidential term and is estimated to have played 261 rounds of golf, one every 5.6 days.


'I'm busy': Trump caught golfing after vowing not to

CNN's Betsy Klein noted that Trump was asked about the possibility of a Monday golf outing at Doral while on Air Force One on Saturday.

"No. I don't think so. I'm busy," the president stated.

Trump's recreational time on Monday came after spending much of his day golfing on Sunday.

If things are getting done in DC while he's out of the picture that they're saying are only getting done because of him being in office but not "in office", how much more efficient are they going to be with their radicalism if he has a stroke or passes in office and JD Vance doesn't own a mega resort to go waste time at?

Lying grifter continues history of lying and grifting.

Many people are saying... 

He's just the show pony in this presidency, Stephen Miller and Elon are running this s**t show

Hey guys cut him some slack, he held out almost 4 days and he only went Florida which only costs ::checks notes:: $210,000 an hour to the taxpayer. Fiscal conservatism is back!

Trump back to golfing after demanding federal workers return to office

Trump is golfing even though he told reporters aboard Air Force One over the weekend that he didn’t think he would have time to golf at his Doral course—where he is grifting off taxpayers to host a retreat for congressional Republicans to come up with a plan for how to pass his tax cuts for the rich.

“No. I don’t think so. I’m busy,” Trump told reporters who asked if he’d be golfing.

Trump's visit to one of his resorts to hit the links took place much earlier than his first disastrous term, when he waited until the first week of February to golf, according to The Washington Post, which tracked Trump's frequent golf outings.

Trump golfing instead of working comes after he issued a memorandum on Inauguration Day requiring that all federal employees return to the office five days a week.

He's not the one writing his policies. His Project 2025 goons are. Trump just applies the Sharpie.

A Constitutional amendment to allow Trump third term has been introduced in the House

 Rep. Ogles Proposes Amending the 22nd Amendment to Allow Trump to Serve a Third Term

It says you can’t run again if you already had two consecutive terms. They specifically made it to only be about Trump.

This motherfucker is 78. After this term he'll be 83 or dead. No way he makes it a third term. They should just concentrate on running the next historic embarrassment to the human race.

Look, lots of comments “it would never pass” and “not in his lifetime”

Who gives a shit. The fact they’re trying to pull this shit, do people not realize how fucked the GOP is to even attempt this. What’s the point of the constitution then?

House GOP measure would let Trump seek third term

A House Republican on Thursday introduced a proposed change to the Constitution that would allow President Trump to seek a third term in office.

Why it matters: The amendment has virtually no chance of becoming ratified but it is a marker of the depths of fealty the new president enjoys within the House GOP.

Republican House members have rushed to introduce bills that would codify Trump's vision for expanding the U.S. borders by acquiring Greenland and the Panama Canal, for instance.

The measure is an extreme long-shot: It would need a two-thirds vote in both chambers of Congress and be ratified by 38 states to be added to the Constitution.

The best part is the highly specific carve out to exclude Obama and Clinton by noting that the president must have served two non-consecutive terms. Give me a fucking break. You assholes are more transparent than truck stop toilet paper.

Worked for Putin when he cycled through Medvedev. 

The fucks aren't even trying to be subtle, because they know 90% of people aren't paying attention.

This is literally out of Russia's playbook. All that needs to happen now is to claim 97% of the vote in favor of Trump.

This is it. Lock the thread.

South African Apartheid Immigrant Nazi Salute

Elon Musk accused of giving ‘Nazi salute’ at Trump inauguration celebration

Tesla CEO and “first buddy” Elon Musk was hit with a wave of immediate outrage online and on cable news after he made a salute that many felt was fascist during his speech at the Capitol One Arena on Monday to celebrate President Donald Trump’s inauguration.

While getting extremely excited about the prospect of landing a man on Mars and planting an American flag, the X (formerly Twitter) owner pounded his chest and shot his right arm in an angular motion toward the sky, saying he felt it in his “heart.” He also turned his back to the audience and repeated the gesture towards the American flag hanging over the stage.



Holy fuck he actually did it. There is zero ambiguity there. No one is exaggerating. He deliberately did a Nazi salute twice.

That was a straight up Nazi salute right off an old news reel.

Not even four hours in President Musk already giving the Nazi salute. 

Just to clarify for people who are not aware.

This WAS NOT "Sieg Heil" or similar. This was literally "Heil Hitler" Salute.

It is also a forbidden salute in several countries, especially in Germany.

In the video he also did the arm on chest thump before he went for the "Heil Hitler". Which is clear that this was the intentional meaning of it from start to end. In full video he did it twice

For anyone claiming this was the "Roman salute", I guess there were many Romans and Centurions in the audience he greeted. Roman salute never existed. No contemporary source of the romans mention or show it, it is something from 1700.

Elon Musk Sure Isn’t Denying That His Inaugural Gesture Was a Nazi Salute

If a person did not mean to make a Nazi salute, but made something that looked just like a Nazi salute in front of a giant crowd and a worldwide television audience, a logical first step to clarifying the situation might be denying that that gesture was a Nazi salute. Elon Musk has not done that. Instead, he called the characterizations of a certain Sieg Heil-flavored gesture he made multiple times at the bizarre indoor “inaugural parade” for newly sworn-in Felon-in-Chief Donald Trump Monday afternoon “sooo tired.” He included a snoozy emoji too, in case those extra o’s weren’t doing it.


It was a Nazi salute, and it comes as no surprise to anyone who has studied Musk. Seth Abramson in his essay The Truth About Musk, From His Biographer dispels the flattering, everchanging, myth Elon Musk carefully tends and shamelessly peddles on his Twitter/X. Here's an excerpt detailing the Musks' white supremacist activities:


A significant amount of the Musk fortune Elon enjoyed growing up, and which his dad used to support him in Canada and America-and this will explain why Elon for years lied about his father’s support, even to the point of falsely implying he had written his father out of his life entirely-came from illegal apartheid-era mines in Zambia that exploited their Black workers but made the Musks fantastically wealthy.

The Musk Family refused to pay taxes on these mines or reveal their interest in them for a reason that makes sense if you know that the Musks comes from generations of white supremacists and some of them-e.g., Elon Musk’s grandparents-were even open Nazi sympathizers.

Trump rises drug cost for millions of Americans

NEW: Donald Trump Rolls Back Biden-Harris Rule to Lower Drug Costs for Millions of Americans

In response to Donald Trump rolling back Biden-Harris administration efforts to lower drug costs for Americans, DNC Rapid Response Director Alex Floyd released the following statement:

“Donald Trump is already following through on his dangerous plans to jack up the costs of drugs to appease his billionaire backers after the Biden-Haris administration took on Big Pharma and won. Trump is again proving that he lied to the American people and doesn’t care about lowering costs – only what’s best for himself and his ultra-rich friends.”

The prices Americans pay for medication is beyond wild to the entire western world...prior to this, take a humble epipen for example. $600USD for one, vs two for $38AUD ($23USD). Inhumane, greedy savages...

It’s been less than 24 hrs and he’s already waging a full on war against the public. 

So he raised inflation first day in office. Got it.

Already making your lives more expensive. Congratulations.

No defense for this one. Zero. None.

It's been one day and he's pardoned people who beat up cops and directly made necessary drugs MORE expensive

Republican terrorism about California fires

 Mike Johnson Vows to Hold Aid to California Hostage After Deadly Fires

Republican leadership continues to use one of the worst natural disasters in U.S. history as political leverage.

On Monday, House Speaker Mike Johnson told CNN’s Manu Raju that there should be “conditions” on the proposed federal aid to California in the wake of the deadly wildfires in Los Angeles County.

So...what they literally accused dems of doing to Florida, North Carolina, and Georgia.

It's a step ahead of that. They screech these lies to make their followers believe that it's justified when they plan on doing it. You see it when Right Wingers start saying things like, "We need to do this because the Dems already do it!"

Election theft. Impeachment. Criminal trials. Federal disaster aid. They cry foul every time and then do whatever they want because they justified it "when the Dems did it first"

So California will be getting more help, unconditionally, from Mexico and Canada than from our own government. 

California should withhold their tax draws until they are whole and see how the republican states like that. For all their ramblings they don't seem to mind taking and spending liberal money.

Every single American that supports this is a traitor to their nation in the purest sense.

Elon Musk Exposed Over Right-Wing Lie on L.A. Fires

Elon Musk was fact-checked on his own livestream after making false statements about the California wildfires, and Gavin Newsom was quick to call out the tech mogul on social media.

In a post on X Sunday night, the California governor posted an excerpt from the livestream, where Musk was receiving a briefing with the command team handling the Palisades fire in Los Angeles. Musk asked an emergency official twice about water to fight the fires being available in the Malibu area but not in the Palisades.

"Exposed". He has no soul. No effect on him... Or more sadly, those that consume his products. The number of Teslas in the Pacific Palisades fire area is large. Yet... voters don't vote with their wallets.

Elon Musk exploits the suffering of others in shameless attempts to manipulate popular opinion to his advantage.

Remember the 2018 Thai cave rescue of 12 boys and their football coach? In that instance, Musk falsely accused professional cave diver Vern Unsworth of being a pedophile after Unsworth accurately referred to Musk's offer to provide a "mini-sub" a public relations stunt. Unsworth, not Musk, proved essential in rescuing the trapped children and their coach.

In the essay The Truth About Musk, From His Biographer, Seth Abramson dispels the flattering, everchanging, myth Elon Musk carefully tends and shamelessly peddles on Twitter/X. Here's a relevant excerpt addressing Musk's inability to tell the truth:

This may be the right moment to note that, as a Musk biographer, I can’t find a single component of the man’s biography he hasn’t lied about. And not just lied about—lied ruthlessly about. Shamelessly. For decades. Without any integrity or fidelity to truth at all. And every lie has the same purpose: to hide what a deceitful, fundamentally bad person he is.

Legal Bribery

Trump Admin Gave Tariff Exemptions to Companies that Donated to Republicans: Study

US firms may be looking at a specific method by which they can avoid the impact of tariffs levied on major trade partners by the Trump administration: donating to the Republican Party.

With President-elect Donald Trump set to assume office this month, many local companies are preparing themselves for the impact of the 47th president's tariff plan, in which he has promised to levy 25% tariffs on all goods sold to the US from certain countries including Canada and China, and Mexico.

Pay to play. America is entering the next level of corruption.

And I’m sure those companies will still raise prices publicly to “offset the costs of the tariffs” they aren’t paying.

It's the goal. Raise prices to match others and make a profit; pure capitalism.

Need to lower prices? Knowing republicans we will see a push for more "prison labor" aka slaves.

How to get more prisoners? Gather the immigrants knowing they will need to be kept somewhere.

Republicans voted in a president who doesn't support the constitution , thinks a president is immune to the law, and is a sexual predator who props up other sexual predators. There is no low for these people. 

People overlook the rampant "prisoner leasing" occurring nationwide because they're criminals, and even minor crimes in America are enough that the public doesn't care how people are abused in prison & coerced to work with the state taking wages, imposing fees, and threatened with extended sentences for missing work. Alabama got 73% of it's revenue from convict leasing in the 1800s. In past five years, more than 500 businesses have leased incarcerated workers from Alabama, including Best Western, Bama Budweiser, and Burger King. The state has generated more than $250 million from this labor since 2000.

 If people are okay with the slavery forced on incarcerated Americans, they certainly won't have any problems ignoring enslavement of non-Americans in prison. Well, not unless wages were even more depressed by companies easy access to plentiful slaves.

This is Trump’s grift. He doesn’t have to offer anything good to get things in return. He just announces terrible plans, and then exempts people from the effects of those plans if they pay up.

First lady Trump complains about President Musk

Trump Privately Complains About Clingy Elon Musk:

“Trump does complain a bit to people about how Musk is around a lot,” New York Times journalist and “Trump whisperer” Maggie Haberman told tech reporter Kara Swisher during the latest episode of Swisher’s podcast, On.

The end of their friendship is going to be spectacular. 

You just know Elon is going to go scorched earth if their friendship ends.

Elon is pissing off governments around the world...

And Elon has a big fat juicy target for those countries... Tesla.

A 100 % tax on Tesla sales, springing up across the world everywhere, should tank Elon's wealth pretty quickly.

Not to mention how overinflated Tesla's stock is. Once it starts to drop it could drop like a rock. One car company isn't worth all the others combined. That is just ridiculous.

Not strong enough of a man to send him packing, though.

Act then, Donnie. You know, like a MAN. Fire that immigrant husband of yours. Show that you can't be manipulated by the likes of Elon. Bonus - it'll keep everyone else on their toes, and that's what you want too, right?
