Dems & others on the left melt down over Musk exposing Government Waste

[riclag]

36 Trillion in the hole .Many are worried about paying this down. Many want to continue the status  quo.

Government  bureaucrats,leftists extremist groups and  foreign  actors are all acting in unison to thwart Doge,Musk and the new Administration efforts to enact what Americans  voted for, Trump & change of  the country’s direction of the last 4 years& more.

 

Musk said foreign actors tampered with X. Fringe leftist groups are attacking his Tesla Dealerships. Dems

and their media friends are spreading 

misinformation and using scare tactics.

 

 

Former officials of Social Security Administration 

“Its 72.5 million people . Sometimes really desperate people will try to hide

that grandma died, so they get a couple more checks.”

Musk found over 20 million names over 100 years old were on the SSA database. But he never mentioned how many were collecting checks.

Answer: To be investigated.

Feels like the age of EV lunacy may be over. To see the liberal hivemind burning EVs and dealerships en masse signals that the narrative that banning westerners from owning ICE cars will save the planet was nonsense from the getgo. I mean after sending kids down rare earth mines in the Congo to make these 3 ton monstrocities for the left to just burn them(or many self combusted), well not much planet saving going on there. Hardly the actions of people sincere in their green beliefs.

Good riddance.

Trump & company caught them all .

 

Now  its time for accountability!

Elon is talking about Social Security numbers being stolen,I’ve tried all

my life trying to to protect myself from

someone stealing my number.

This is personal for me! My number is on the dark web as a result of a April 2024  National Public Database breach..

 

Millions of Social Security numbers were exposed during Bidens watch!

 Where was the public outcry

then?

I haven’t met anyone melting down over sensible cuts to government wasteful spending.

 

Musk’s share prices are melting down though. He has lost more personally than what he is saving for the USA taxpayers.

 

He probably isn’t the right person for the job. He only got the job because he bankrolled Trumps election campaign.

[BangkokReady]

Trump and Elon are doing something good.  It makes them look good.  The loony-left therefore have to view it as being bad.  🤷‍♂️

Quit looking  or

I wouldn’t be surprised to find out this

was intentional .Bidens crew love those illegals having stolen SS#’s.

National public data base breach in

April 2024. Any investigation?Any arrests ?

 

“In April 2024, a cybercriminal named USDoD began selling the stolen data, which included names, addresses, phone numbers, and Social Security Numbers for more than 272 million people. By July 2024, the data had been leaked online, causing widespread concern and prompting NPD to acknowledge the breach on August 12, 2024”

 

“Unfortunately, this is just one of many data breaches that have occurred in 2024”.

I don't understand how you interpret that graph and claim fraud started under Trump. 2021 was the first year of the Biden administration. Are you using leftie math?

If it wasn’t Trump or Musk it would be

somebody else who doesn’t follow 

the party progressive narratives.

 

Musk is sending a crew up in space to rescue the others who Biden abandoned! The haters will find something to complain about , when 

they are brought back.

20 million people over 100 on the SSA

data rolls and Millions of illegals without a SS# , all potential fraud hookups.

 

millions of SSA numbers breached in April 2024

and neither party mentions it  .

Not at all. Alcoa produces aluminum in Canada, Iceland, Australia and elsewhere,  however, they have trimmed their output in the United States in recent years.

 

Alcoa is a bad actor and has exported US jobs to foreign countries. It has been asked by the Trump administration to open plants in the US instead. 

 

Given that Alcoa will lose money if it continues to export jobs to Canada, Iceland, Australia etc the only alternative is to open facilities in the US. The CEO doesn't like spending the money on that, but they will have no other choice.

 

It is a brilliant move by Trump in fact.

The reason they do it in Canada is subsidized electricity. Lots of that around outside the USA.

It's clear that you don't understand how aluminum is made. It requires huge amounts of electricity. Canada has all the cheap hydropower it needs to accomplish that. The latest report I could find has its electricity cost  at 0.054 US dollars per kwh.  The lowest rate in the US is in North Dakota which comes to 10.21 cents per KWH. It takes anywhere from 14000 kwh to 17000 to process a ton of aluminum. So let's take 15500 kwh as the average. If you do the math, you'll see that it costs almost $750 more per ton to make aluminum in the USA if you use North Dakota's cost as a baseline. Which is wildly unrealistic. The current world average price of aluminum is around $2600. That's a huge cost. Which is why it makes no economic sense to produce primary aluminum (aluminum made from the bauxite ore)  in the USA.

For scrap aluminum, the US is actually a net exporter. Although that business will certainly suffer if tariffs on aluminum imports persist.
