I think in Musks case, he is interested in milking as much money as humanly possible from the coffers of the USA in order to further his own goals and fund his own projects, and we are absolutely going to let him do that.

just another nail in the coffin of America. We are truly finished as a civilized and law-and-order country. It is done, finished, kaput, the corruption that is being installed will go on for generations and is pretty much impossible to undo. Bannon said they will now rule for 50 years. I have no trouble believing that. Just look at any number of authoritarian governments in the world today and that existed throughout the last 50-60 years. All of them either still exist as authoritarian, or were only undone by violence And even when I say 'undone', that means they still do not operate as a functioning democracy or any semblance of normal or sane government. The damage that will be done can never be undone. We are now officially a banana republic.

one more billionaire to the list of billionaires who supposedly know what's best for the average american worker..... Let me know how that all works out

pretty sure that the Nobel committee likely excludes convicted felons and rapists that steal from charities.

no one said the laptop was a russian fabrication.... I specifically asked "What happened with all that?" and am still waiting for an answer. There was damning evidence of the Biden crime family, just like hillary's emails...... like the Biden Impeachment committee(s)..... so why has none of that been prosecuted? Why did nothing come of it when Donald Trump was president and owned the DOJ? He made it a campaign promise.... LOCK HER UP! LOCK HER UP! The Biden DOJ, NY, Georgia and other venues actually managed to bring indictments/convictions to Trump, Trump himself managed to convict a few dozen of his own associates while he was president under his DOJ. is that hubris? Which 'hubris' are you speaking of? Because so far, it is the conservative republicans that appear to be the committers of crimes and yet, the accusations from the right continue, yet .... nothing, slience, zip zero nada nothing.... Trump never even managed to START an investigation into Hillary. And then he had to go to Ukraine to try and start an investigation into the Bidens..... why was that? So again, either their is NO evidence of crimes from say Hillary's emails, or Hunters laptop, or the Biden crime family..... or the conservatives are basically incompetent and cannot find it, all the while Go ahead, I will even let you choose one... Or the thrid option, Trump and the republicans understand EXACTLY how gullible you are and have been feeding you mouth foaming bullshit for years, and you appear to still be swallowing it. Cannot answer the question? Yeah, I thought so

stop bringing facts to an ideological cult..... It would not matter if trump was raping their children in front of the them, bent over their own couch..... They would say 'well THAT guy raped people too!' The level of their depravity and dishonesty about what they represent is truly a cult masterpiece.

where is the laptop? Apparently you have had access to it for years now, EVERYONE knows that it is full of damning information and EVERYONE knows that it exposes the biden crime family, and yet.... nothing? How gullible are you anyway? What happened to the dossier? Nothing. What is happening with Covid policy? Oh yeah, that is over and done with now that one million americans are dead.... but you seem to gloss over that to discuss 'policy' Good grief man, you are pretty deep in the rabbit hole and seemingly unable to speak in clear thoughts.... you sounds just like..... wait!!! wait!!! the guy you voted for?

which truth do you speak of?

Walmart is not doing this because it is the right thing to do, they are doing it to cover their ass and be in favor with the new administration as opposed to fighting them over what is right or wrong. Disney tried that a few years ago with Desantis and in the end it all worked out but still, much damage was done in the name of ideology....

Nixon was going to go be indicted, be removed from office for his lying, and he resigned. His VP also resigned. No one in this new administration gives a fuck about lying, nor do they care about what is factual, nor do they care about anything other than ideology. Not sure what lies JFK told....? LBJ was caught up in the fog of war, but also, i was just a kid in Canada so we did not get any details really, and I was too young to care. I am talking about systemic, methodical lying since Regan, normalized by Newt and the disruption of anything and everything in government to meet the ideological goals, regardless of how corrupt it is.....

I'm glad I am not the only one that recognizes this. In a TV interview years ago when he was speaker, he was asked about something and told a bold face lie. The interviewer said "But that's not true...." Gingrich replied "That is what our/my people believe....". If the press had grown some balls and pushed the issue, it might have ended there, but then, maybe not. Gingrich was the first to systemically, and methodically tell absolute lies based on 'what people believe' (at the same time, promoting the narratives), which has lead us to where we are today.... absolute bullshit, no recognition of the truth, no acknowledgement of the truth, alternative facts and thus the end of the republic in a few years. house of cards being deliberately dismantled by only one side of the populace, conservatives that believe their opinion is more valid than truth.

Newt Gingrich (and others), but he was the first to normalize lying

Steve Woodford, South African Steve, was calling for a civil war if Trump lost, openly on FB. Truth Social is filled with people that openly call for the overthrow of the american government by force. For that matter, NextDoor is also a forum for seditious cocksuckers..... I am not surprised.... but since Trump won, maybe we will avoid that part - but they are all still seditious assholes, and I would not sell them my snot.

Joel Greenberg (politician) - Wikipedia - a pretty good synopsis

There was enough evidence to convict Joel Greenburg, but Gaetz was probably smart enough to not leave a trail of texts and emails.... Greenburg also ran a criminal enterprise out of his tax collectors office, so there were MANY indictments. He tried to plead out of the sex trafficking charges, but the prosecutors said no fucking way. Gaetz got lucky.... it's her word against his pretty much. Not really enough to charge. Of course that does not mean it did not happen. Greenburg took young girls to the Bahamas for cocaine infused parties and sex, and Gaetz was his buddy along with him, more than once I understand. Greenburg left a trail of evidence, payments, texts, flights, etc. Gaetz covered up a lot of that.

During Trumps own administration, Trump signed an agreement and settlement stating that he stole money from his charity to the tune of $2M, 19 different and separate allocutions. Money he promised to veterans and children. When the convict actually agrees so willingly to the terms of the settlement, he is pretty much the fucking criminal, To state that 'we got it wrong trying to convict trump of crimes' is such a departure from normality, such a departure from ANY claim of believing in law and order, such a departure from ANY reality that allows anyone to claim they are an American, or a patriot, or that they believe in ANYTHING that resembles morality. It is a true reflection of how fucking ignorant, ill-informed, low information, uneducated and pathetic society is.... and is also the end of the country, eventually. How this single theft from his charity was not an impeachment and removable offense, I will never understand in my lifetime. Anyone that supports this human piece of shit is beyond my comprehension. Yet here we are. American is as dumb as fuck and deserves everything they get.

A reminder that about half the country does not like Trump. Not actually a 'handful'. Trump is declaring a landslide for the fact that he got all three, house senate and executive, plus he already had the supreme court. Still, half the country does not like Trump, yet he will be able to wield whatever power he chooses, and he is already choosing to do so. Project 2025 is back on even though he denied having anything to do with it. I expect nationwide abortion bans, christianity taught in schools, massive detention camps (those have ALWAYS worked out in american history right?), skyrocketing inflation due to tariffs, and I also expect the morons that voted for him to cheer him on while they are getting fucked by him. Ongoing corruption, regular violations of the constitution.... but hey, who needs a constitution when 'only a handful of people' are objecting..... and there is no one left to check it..... as outlined in the constitution..... NOT a handful of people at all, dislike this human piece of shit who will still go down in history as one of the most corrupt, criminal and seditious presidents in the country's history.

that is not the 'actual statement', that is a snopes article with an analysis of the actual statement. If you want to post the actual statement, it is available and you can post that.... Go ahead and defend his comments. he took two days to actually say anything meaningful. And that is because he is a piece of shit. And guess what? He is still a piece of shit.

still waiting. your lack of response only shows the weakness and fragility of you argument. What I expected.

we care because we are supposed to be a country that cares about America and Americans. apparently that is something of the past... oh wait, that is something of the current trump minded nationalistic right wing fringe thinking......

more word salad that is absolutely meaningless and does not actually address anything to do with the meaning of woke. I am hoping that you were being sarcastic.

I will bet real money that you cannot admit that oil and gas production in the USA is at an all time high. record setting. So a statement like 'the return of oil and gas production' does nothing but demonstrate your complete disconnect from reality. I stopped reading after the first line since the first line is complete bullshit. So can you acknowledge that oil and gas production in the USA is in fact at an all time high, under President Joe Biden and his administration?

there would be no one to enforce the pilot rules either.....

Sexual assault is a prerequisite to working in the trump administration. Gaetz, this guy, Trump himself. Grab 'em by the pussy should have been their campaign slogan rather than MAGA..... So many women that hate women..... or prefer to be subservient and used/abused by men.

1. They could not do it then, and they will not do it now. Too much money and not enough payback - even the republicans will not support this. Of course Trump can and will use executive power to spend whatever he wants unchecked and the House nor Senate will stand in the way. No one knows where the money comes from, probably by printing it. 2. The only thing better than Obamacare is Medicare for all, and the republicans will not do that, nor do they have anything better, not even a concept of something better. But they will burn it to the ground I expect. 3. Yes they will, until the bill comes in, inflation, housing, taxes lost, worker shortages, family earners deported so the leftovers will end up on welfare, etc 4. Still have no idea what means. Trump is now the swamp, so what is he to do about that? 5. Not a chance in hell.... expect spirally deficits and debt.... upward, not downward. The fact that TWO people are in charge of redundancy and cost cutting is already an irony.....
