I like how he came up with the most misleading, over dramatic click bait line item descriptions he could

Admitting to committing one crime to get out of another crime is certainly a bold move.

Musk appears ready to run the government like he runs Twitter, which is to say right into the ground.

You'd think you could at least enumerate the "Unknowns." Like as a basic condition of being taken seriously.

But this is Elon Musk and his baffling obsession with monkeys. So that ship sailed, like a rickety uhaul of canvassers headed to Mars.

Ta, Rebecca. The reason my morning greeting was late was because it took a whole fucking HOUR for *that* website to send me a confirmation email so I could disable my account. I did it, and of course I'm @zyxomma on bluesky, which, like beloved husband Meccalopolis, I pronounce BLOOskee.

It's more fun to make stuff up and pull numbers from your posterior!

Huh...if GWB hadn't cut taxes 3 times mostly for the very wealthy, while starting 2 unpaid for wars, and collapsing the world economy, we wouldn't be paying $659 billion in interest payments. Maybe we could claw some of those tax free "loans" to billionaires back, and stop paying so much interest on our debt? Just a thought!

That's why they put the Tangeranus back in..so that will never happen!

Those wars weren't just put on the credit card. OUR Social Security fund was raided, and that money has never been repaid.

Comment in a thread on reddit RE Elon getting picked to head up the whatever it is:

"Lonnie be the first bitch to get kicked out."

LOL!

But how many Scaramuccis will he last?

Tangerini is already complaining Musk won't go home. I hope they get in a big ol' cat-fight and Musk uses his money to make the orange clown unpopular. Musk owns a fair bit of the Incel army.

Yeah, let's crack down on wasted tax dollars by... *checks notes* ...creating a completely new department with two heads.

How many nanoseconds will this last? Two rich narcissists, relegated to little more than clerks in an outbuilding, required to get the approval of their "co-director" on every single decision.

Chump didn't know what to do with you, so he put you in right field.

Also paying interest on all the tax cuts that we've given to very wealthy fuck heads for the past 44 years. Wonder how we could get some of that back?

I saw a cartoon the other day. Batman calling Wonder Woman's phone while she looks for it while it's on invisible airplane mode.

If Bill Proxmire were still around, Elno would have all the golden fleece awards

My parents hometown got the Flying Fickle Finger of Fate award from Laugh-In for how their Board of Education handled a teacher's strike and made everything worse.

How much money has and does the government give Tesla every year. Talk about waste. Those carbon credits don't sell themselves.

So much of that list looks like misrepresentation.

Ethereal Fairy's avatar

Like all of it! It probably started as a joke and those idiots think it is real.

I think when Melon stops paying interest on T-bills that Wall St will be slightly annoyed
