Summary
Elon Musk, a Republican megadonor and close Trump ally, is reportedly set to have office space in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building near the West Wing.
Musk is expected to head the “Department of Government Efficiency,” aiming to reduce federal spending under Trump.
Critics question Musk’s influence, noting his frequent presence at key Trump meetings and events.
This move, if confirmed, would grant Musk continued access to Trump post-inauguration, sparking debate about the billionaire’s role in the administration despite holding no official government position.
Oligarchy.
We’re no better than Russia.
By design.
We lost the cold war folks.
The cold war was against the Soviets. We’re losing to fascists.
Which is much worse (imo)
The Soviets lost to fascists first. Now we’re falling to the Soviet fascists.
We’re no better than Russia.
Gulag for you, comrade.
Maybe the US needs more political prisoners so we can be up to par from the minority parties. The hatred is almost there amongst the loyalists to the billionaire elite. Just check out a fox news comments section, they’d love to shoot some democrats up. They don’t even consider them human anymore.
I can’t believe how mass media is turning people into monsters who cheer for the death of hard working working class families while the billionaires get bigger and bigger handouts from tax dollars.
Waitaminute… Isn’t he going into the tesla office every day? I thought employees couldn’t be productive without being in the office!
Come on, there’s the press releases and public relations and then there’s reality.
The reality is that businesses want employees to leave so they can avoid paying severance and because the banks will give them preferential rates for utilizing office space, keeping commercial properties artificially inflated despite major changes in the perception and reality about how work can be performed.
It’s easy to downsize at very large companies, it just piles on more work for those that remain. During booming times like most tech companies had in the pandemic they hired like gangbusters at the behest of middle management, now it’s austerity time so they can focus on massive profits while corporate taxes are at an excessive temporary low.
woosh
In related news JD Vance reported that he has opted for a room at the local Motel 6 for his accomodations…
since when does the dollar store motel chain have couches in their rooms?
Couches, chairs…he’s got eclectic tastes. Some people are saying.
Please don’t sleep on JD Vance. While Trump is selling out the constitution, he is the tip of the want-to-be authoritarian spear: Is There Something More Radical than MAGA? JD Vance Is Dreaming It.
Not even the bed bugs want to be associated with him
Of course the real President should have offices in the White House!
How to buy a government.
That door has been open a while, he’s just the biggest one and in the latest tradition the quiet part is being said out loud now. More validation of the real message of “Soylent Green”, where a society degrades to the point where even the most outrageous actions get at best a shrug from the apathetic public.
Surely they are playing with fire now, right? The French Revolution happened in part because the oligarchy became so brazen about things.
We will find out when these idiots start the second great depression. When 400 million people can’t eat shit gets real.
Not that I would ever condone or encourage such abhorrent and inexcusable behaviour, but it would seem like if anyone in US politics is begging for a bullet, it’s Musk. Even more so than Trump or his cabinet of monstrosities. Musk is uniquely poised to catch a round in the dome. And it will probably be a MAGA lunatic that does it.
Musk is a bigger problem for the world as a whole than Trump is. So yeah, I still don’t get why it hasn’t happened yet.
Oh man he’s gonna give so many more blowjobs than Melania
69 is one of favorite numbers. The other is 420, He has priced cars at $69,420 in the past.
Is it just me or is Elon’s appearance taking on more and more the embodiment of a fart in human form?
I didn’t know how to word it, but this feels about right
I would hope so. He’s the president.
Let me know when they name an aircraft carrier after him.
He’ll probably rename Airforce One to Xbox420lol69
Next door to the Russian and Chinese oligarch offices.
The most likely, so he could give them a blowjob from time to time.
Every president in the White House needs a dog eh?
Yup, that’s why Trump is there.
Will the space be oval?
Damn you for beating me to this.
Jesus fucking Christ
What shape is that office?
Oval.
Aw, he’s moved his lover in.
