Thanks for sharing your feelings with us. That is so wonderfully feminine of you. Even if utterly irrelevant to the topic at hand. Still, good to see you're in touch with your female side.

Another case of circular reasoning. The hornets nest or whateve please you to call it is corrupt because Musk claims it is which proves that it's corrupt. As pointed out before, William Barr tried his damnedest to proof such a claim in the case of the Justice Dept and completely failed.

More nonsense allegations about my nationality. Even if my views differed from many commentators known to be Americans, you still wouldn't have a valid point. But they don't. You do have something massive to back up your claims though: fanaticism.

Just because there were 40 anonymous whales who purchased huge quantities of Trump's meme coin just before he took office? Why don't you understand that because they are invisible that means that they are also transparent? And transparency is crucial.

I recall going into this with you before. And you never offered any proof then.

Now be fair. For all we know for sure, he could be living in a room in the Brisbane YMCA. A roomie hasn't left in the past 50 years. For all we know for sure.

Well, now that you put it that way... It is to laugh. Clearly, evidence and/or reasoning are concepts unfamiliar to you.

Unlike Musk, his competitors are in no position to fire anyone there. Donald Trump has identified Musk as the leader of DOGE. So how do you know people were 't fired at his behest?

If you can't understand why the income or nationality of an anonymous poster is impossible to prove, you are even more clueless than I imagined.

The organization about a billion dollars. She didn't. And if they commit fraud with the money, and then you can prosecute it

I bet you have a very happy life. After all, ignorance is bliss.

Stop lying. Not even the right wing slant on the grant to that organization claims that Stacy Abrams earned a billion dollars. As for comments about my alleged nationality and income, it shows what low standards you have that you actually offer such ridiculous allegations. They're as ridiculous as my allegation that you not an American. I have no way of knowing your nationality. But unlike you I know that such allegations are ridiculous.

Making it personal is a sure sign that's someone has nothing. You've got nothing.

Another case of willful ignorance.

You are clearly incapable of understanding why conflict of interests laws and rules exist.

You know this how? Just another faith-based comment. You might want to look at this: https://archive.ph/t2oXf#selection-4813.0-4833.1

President Trump has been celebrating the published savings, even musing about a proposal to mail checks to all Americans to reimburse them with a “DOGE dividend.” But the math that could back up those checks is marred with accounting errors, incorrect assumptions, outdated data and other mistakes, according to a New York Times analysis of all the contracts listed. While the DOGE team has surely cut some number of billions of dollars, its slapdash accounting adds to a pattern of recklessness by the group, which has recently gained access to sensitive government payment systems. https://archive.ph/t2oXf#selection-4813.0-4833.1

Another Musk fanboy.

Your claim about ethics is ludicrous. Unless you believe that conflict of interest rules and laws are somehow unwarranted in government. As for the lawfare charge...William Barr tried that one on when he was Attorney General. He failed utterly. And of course you seem to be making an assumption that there is significant theft within the government. How can the tax dollars of a non-American like you be stolen? Maybe you have a green card?

Or the surviving half might be intimidated into giving him what he wants rather than lose their jobs, yes? You're right about tax avoidance, but massively wrong about tax evasion. For years, the Republicans slashed the funding for the IRS. Tax evasion enforcement crashed. Trump Organization fined $1.6m for ‘brazen’ tax fraud https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/1/13/trump-organization-fined-1-6-million-for-tax-fraud IRS Said He Led the “Worst of the Worst” Tax Scams. Now He’s a Trump Adviser. https://truthout.org/articles/irs-said-he-led-the-worst-of-the-worst-tax-scams-now-hes-a-trump-adviser/ He Promised Huge Tax Refunds. Now Trump Wants Him to Lead the I.R.S. Since leaving Congress in 2023, Billy Long has peddled a pandemic-era tax credit that the I.R.S. has warned is a magnet for fraud. https://archive.ph/UPvu0#selection-683.0-687.130

Now, be fair. It was the Trump Organization that lost, not Trump. And while it's true that it was charged with 17 felony counts, it was only convicted of 17 of them.

First of all the Trump administration has been obfuscating about Elon Musk's role in DOGE. Trump says he's the head, others deny it. That will soon come to a head when a judge adjudicates the issue and the administration will be required to identify who heads DOGE. But regardless of that, the ethical principle of conflict of interest does exist. And you, apparently, are incapable of understanding why it exists.

I don't think you understand why there are conflict of interest rules and such a thing as blind trusts. https://www.everycrsreport.com/reports/RS21656.html

No. If you had bothered to acquaint yourself with the facts you would know that musk is attempting to get approval for his so-called self-driving system from this agency. No other automobile makers are doing that. And your point about the IRS is even worse. Once again your airing your ignorance in public. The bide administration added lots of IRS agents specifically to review the tax avoidance and downright evasion practice by the very wealthy. A huge amount of income for the government is being missed currently. So there is an inherent conflict of interest there.

You miss the point. We shouldn't have to rely on "trust me bro" when musk says it. I can't believe that someone is so naive as to believe that conflict of interest rules aren't necessary.
