No dream, a nightmare for Americans. Personally, what Trump does won't affect me at all.

Did you have to think about Trump going to jail for the happy ending?

    Musk is the one who needs to be somehow eliminated from this ridiculousness. Sure, many areas need to be trimmed. Is he the one to do it?    As his wealth has increased so has his level of a

Musk giving press conferences from the Oval Office while Trump sat there looking like a lost grandad who doesn’t know what’s going on around him is all the warning anyone should need.

 

Musk is clearly running the show.

 

An unelected billionaire who is constitutionally barred from the Presidency has taken advantage of an old man whose out of it.

 

The times still think the Billionaire has their best interests in mind.

 

 

Who was running the show when Biden was president?

At least we know who is running Trump!

Flames removed along with replies.

@Lacessit stop the flames and insults please.

Same people who "selected" DEI Harris.

 

Sometimes their stupidity is a good thing. Now we can all feel unburdened by what has been.

That they fight tooth and nail to keep the drag shows going is hilarious. 

Sickening to see them shirking their junk around  in public at parades!

My girlfriend worked for an NGO in Bangkok for 18 months.

 

Her boss had a chauffer driven BMW and his kids attended a very well known international school.

 

All paid for by the donations.

 

So next time you donate to help starving kids in a third world country, be glad that little Tarquin's ski trip comes first and if there is any left they might get a bowl of rice as long as they agree to pose for a photo with the hero NGO boss and a local politician.

Yeah, and notice all the "aid" workers driving late model Range Rovers supervising handouts of rice and beans that cost $1,200 a plate.

Lowering national debt would help more than shutting national agencies. That would allow government to operate within their budget. 

The Department of Education, established by Congress, cannot be deleted by the President. How about the Department of Defense?

Stop wasteful expenditure, sure. Cut the people who look after the nuclear defense of the nation, not so good.

I think the idea of defunding departments is to reduce the debt. 

 

Right now, the debt is funded by short-term bond (thank you Biden-Yellen) and it will have to be refunded at a higher rate, which Trump will get blamed for. 

 

The Department of Education is a scourge on our society, it should be burned to the ground and the earth beneath it salted. 

 

Do not delete it. Keep a skeleton crew to issue block grants to states.

I'm still amazed DEI Harris got as many votes as she did.

 

Even if you ignore the millions of disappearing [cough] postal votes during Covid that's still a lot of stupid Americans.

 

Especially given how many live in Thailand and post on here.

Keep in mind, about half the country are Democrats, and the two smartest Democrats they could find to run (unlike Trump, Hunter was a convicted felon) was Harris and Walz.

Define "essential". Seems to me that what government drones class as essential is merely a means of keeping a well paid job while doing nothing much, or even being bad for society- just make work for government lackeys that don't want to do a real job.

 

I for one wish we had an Elon to lay waste to government malfeasance in this country.

 

A lot of nonsense if not criminality is being uncovered. Million dollar salaries were going to two British politicians (through one's wife) and being paid by USAID. How does USAID need to give aid to British politicians. I also see that DNC vice chairman David Hogg has just been found to be pilfering money through a salary generated by a non-profit. Hogg may go to jail.

I wake up this morning, look at Twitter/X, and see Musk is involved some sordid depraved baby momma affair with Ashley St. Clair. This guy needs to live in a double-wide. He has the morals of a goat. As much as I do approve of what DOGE is uncovering, Musk is making it all very unseemly with his trashy behavior.

The Woke Wall of  Pennsylvania , Wisconsin and Michigan has been red necked, fed up with the culture war!

Trump must demoralize the Woke state infest of agencies before he can make headlines into economic recovery!
CNN's exit polling found that the economy was the most important issue for 32% of voters and that those voters broke for Trump by an overwhelming margin of 80% to 19%.

Ha to look up Ashley St Clair, but she's definitely worth chancing 1,000bht.

If this administration's objective is really to lower debt, why does Trump want to raise the debt-ceiling? 🙂

It’s amusing that the left wants to have drag shows and gay-sex picture books in grade schools, abortion on demand, and they demand everyone be allowed to dress as provocatively as they like and should have sex anywhere they like with any one they like, except when it is someone they oppose, and then the Puritan in them comes out…

Gop Rep Luna is heading up a Task Force for Americans , besides the Jfk files, she’ll be exposing the corruption or lack of accountability in everything 

Dealing with J. Epstien .

The fan is gonna reek of excrement!

 

I'm a strict isolationist, I love the downsizing and closing/merging of Fed. departments. Its long over due. The corruption and theft that get revealed is just icing on the cake. Hopefully theres jail or hanging for those responsible. Place our military on both of our borders and keep the snowbacks out.  Can't wait for Trump to pull our military and equipment home.  Pile anything left up and burn it to the ground.
Of course it will never happen like that but a guy can dream, right ?

Love the sanctions if the American people can endure the pain thats going to come with it. We'll be better for it in the end, so long as that includes a heavy reduction in taxes.

Enjoy the EO's but they don't mean a thing if bills don't pass both houses and get signed into law. Otherwise this is all just hot air

Knowing that Epstein got his his infamous deal from a GOP AG, in a GOP State, under a GOP federal administration, and also that he (got?) suicided in a Federal prison under a GOP DOJ, I'm not holding my breath.... :smile:

Im all for exposing too but peacefully & legally! And when properly  investigated and  facts are proven ,white color malfeasance must be 

held accountable.

The Federal Government is operating on a deficit, which means to fund the government the ceiling must be raised from time to time.
