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.

Let me guess, he wanted “that to sink in” ? 😂
I cannot wait until the Orange Idiot gets sick of him and Musk suddenly becomes a Democrat.
Good grief. This post’s thumbnail is huge and hard to look at.
I’d say he’s gonna have more of an idiocracy in the white house.
Next door to the Russian and Chinese oligarch offices.
The most likely, so he could give them a blowjob from time to time.
Now we can get Tesla Whitehouse recall announcements.
We’re all watching this story closely as it unfolds. I encourage you to listen to the macro side of these decisions. A good podcast episode is: https://pca.st/episode/750eb48b-abda-4b5b-9e55-78137234c1c0 Essentially, the choices they make and when they make them, will affect the standing of the dollar, and will affect the efficacy of Trump’s presidency.
“Efficacy of Trump’s presidency”? You’re using words to legitimize the non-legitimizable. There’s no reason to pay attention to any of this. It’s going to be an unrelenting shit show that destroys the country. That’s the macro and the micro. Why spend even a second looking into it?
Of course the real President should have offices in the White House!
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.
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
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
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.
Oligarchy.
We’re no better than Russia.
By design.
We lost the cold war folks.
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.
The Cold War is still going on, the goal is to destroy America from the inside because a frontal assault is impossible.
Yep. I saying we’ve lost.
Not that it isn’t ongoing, we’ve just been position with our pants down, wrists chained to our ankles, bent over a barrel.
Well, that’s how Americans like to take it. Bent over and told everything is fine.
yeah but every four years we vote with or without lube. Looks like everyone got sick of lube this go round and wanted something rougher.
Never heard it said better
Hah! Love it.
2A time
Bringing guns to a drone fight, I see. Brilliant.
Wonder how duck guns do against drones?
There are 10ga shotguns designed to shoot high brass loads to lead and take down fast moving waterfowl. Market hunters back in the day also had what were basically shot cannons they used.
They’d have to be close in from the Ukrainian footage I’ve seen. Some of the drones could have been taken down by shotgun with a good shot.
Higher drones would require flack, I guess.
According to some Russian, all you need is a spear. They even commemorated it.
I’ve seen that video! That shit was fantastic.
Lmao that has to be Pennsic.
😂
Eh, to have a constitutional convention, think we need things to collapse first :\ unfortunately. The powers that be are too entrenched.
Edit: does that make me an accelerationist? Absolutely yes lol
You think billionaires and their private armies and vast disinformation networks won’t come up with even more control from a constitutional convention or violent revolution? Fucking delusional.
Ok. So you aren’t someone that wants change. Got it. Fucking conservative LMAO. That’s why Trump won. Even if I disagree with a lot of the proposed changes, I think having things shaken up is better than letting the sludge just flow. Dibshit. If it takes increased pressure to burst the pipes so be it
You have no clue how bad this can get, or how uncertain the outcome is. Historically speaking, the change that comes from a societal breakdown is almost certain to be entirely bad. He’s just removing what little restraint there was on billionaires and corporations.
The pipes don’t burst. Look to modern Russia if you want to know where we are accelerating to. We’re already halfway there and moving fast.
Yeah we are hurry up and get it over with lol
Maybe enough of you will start taking risks instead of being so… Docile. By you I mean Americans not Lemmings. Why I was pro Trump after Bernie got ratfucked by the DNC until he actually was president for a day. Lying about the crowd sizes was an “ah fuck” moment. January 6th 2020… well, glad conservative extremists TEND to be incompetent. Not always ofc but on avg
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.
And willingly. I might be unfairly judging because I’m a non-American that has been watching this unfold from the outside. But this has been no master plan. There’s been no deception or trickery. These people have repeatedly and loudly told us all what they’re about. But Donald Trump could say “Hannibal Lector is a fine man” after half an hour of shuffling around onstage to golden oldies and his supporters were like “my hero! 😍”
Long before they were trying to ‘protect the kids’ from trans people, they were trying to ‘protect the kids’ from metal and punk and rap and calling everything satanic. But all along, we all knew that they were raging hypocrites that campaign for things like child marriage while claiming to actually give a shit about children.
The way I see it, not a single person over say 25 has the excuse of not knowing or not remembering. They don’t get to use the “we were tricked” line later on. In fact, no one with the ability to read does. Southern Republican states have a global reputation for being full of kiddie fiddling preachers and politicians, for being run like 3rd world countries and for being incestuous motherfuckers. This is known. And this is why I’m going to press X to doubt wherever anyone tries to tell me that they thought the price of eggs would improve.
Agree 100%
The biggest reason we (the USA) are losing to fascists is because half of Americans are fascists, whether they realize it or not. And it’s been that way for a hundred years (and they were proto fascists, aka Confederates, before that)
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
Jesus fucking Christ
