MAJOR UPDATE & BREAKING NEWS:
Just in this hot news from The Independent with this very concerning headline:
“Marjorie Taylor Greene
tapped to work alongside Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy on DOGE panel”
Taylor-Greene, the ultra far-right firebrand will chair a House GOP sub-committee to recommend mass firings and government cuts.
MY NOTE: How can that possibly be legal? If so, fire her own raggedy ass!!! (Pardon my French).
Main Post Follows:
Another huge Musk plan or
gimmick to run our government structure the way Trump wants it run:
More on the three maniacs now setting up and redesigning our
government and thus the entire Federal structure in their images and not one
for “We the People” as the preamble to the current Constitution says that they
want to rewrite.
Those three are so-called leader
DJT and his two lapdogs Elon Muck and Vivek Ramaswamy as this article
from THE
HILL headline lays out in stark concerning terms:
“Musk, Ramaswamy lay out
plans for ‘mass’ federal layoffs, rule rollbacks under Trump”
Elon Musk and Vivek
Ramaswamy said their brand-new government efficiency panel (DOGE) will identify
“thousands” of regulations for Trump to eliminate, which they argue will
justify “mass head-count reductions” across government.
Musk and Ramaswamy
preemptively addressed arguments about civil service protections that could
potentially block Trump from firing federal workers writing: “The purpose of these protections is to
protect employees from political retaliation. But the statute allows for
‘reductions in force’ that don’t target specific employees. The statute further
empowers the president to ‘prescribe rules governing the competitive service.’
That power is broad. With this authority, Mr. Trump can implement any number of
‘rules governing the competitive service’ that would curtail administrative
overgrowth, from large-scale firings to relocation of federal agencies out of
the Washington area.”
Government workers are
already mobilizing in the face of potential mass cuts, reportedly hiring
lawyers and preparing public campaigns while also hoping Congress will step in
(Reuters reporting).
DOGE also hopes to take
aim at “unauthorized” federal funding, which could impact everything from
veterans’ health care and opioid addiction treatment to NASA (Washington Post reports).
There is widespread skepticism about the ability of Musk and
Ramaswamy’s panel to enact change. As an outside-of-government commission, it
would be limited to an advisory capacity, meaning it could face numerous
obstacles from within the executive branch, as well as Congress.
Musk’s close relationship with Trump could be influential.
The Tesla and SpaceX CEO played a key role in Trump’s campaign, contributing
millions of dollars to his own pro-Trump super PAC and getting out on the
campaign trial.
Musk has remained close at hand; the billionaire tech mogul
joined the president-elect at Mar-a-Lago on election night to watch the results
roll in and later received a shout out in Trump’s victory speech.
Musk also has spent much of his time at the Palm Beach,
Fla., resort over the past two weeks, reportedly weighing in on Trump’s Cabinet
picks and attending meetings, including those with world leaders.
Original post below more updates later I’m sure so stay tuned:

Topic: New & Largest Volcano Ever is Building. It’s Name: The Donald
Now building up pressure and expected to fully erupt full strength sometime after noon on Monday, January 6, 2025 across the whole nation and perhaps even the entire planet???
Some of the damage of the basics here from the WASHINGTON
EXAMINER with this troubling headline:
“Trump taps
Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to lead Department of Government Efficiency”
The newest from that trio of total crazy lunatics: President-elect Donald J. Trump has now rewarded billionaire owner of “X” Elon Musk and former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy with plum positions heading up the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
(NOTE: I
renamed it DODGE as seen above).
Trump in his
announcement said: “I am pleased to
announce that the “Great” Elon Musk, working in conjunction with “American
Patriot” Vivek Ramaswamy, will lead the Department of Government Efficiency
(“DOGE”). Together, these two “wonderful Americans” will pave the way for my
Administration to (1) dismantle Government Bureaucracy, (2) slash excess
regulations, (3) cut wasteful expenditures, and (4) restructure Federal
Agencies – Essential to the “Save America” Movement.”
Musk in turn said:
“This will send shockwaves through the
system, and anyone involved in Government waste, which is a lot of people!”
This is a breaking story and will be updated.
Now the story
in question as an update here from BLOOMBERG NEWS with this headline:
“Musk & Ramaswamy Eye
Five-Day Office Week for Federal Workers”
Example of the Musk &
Ramaswamy garbage: There are more than two million federal workers and over 400 agencies
across the country. Eighty percent of federal employees work outside of
Washington, according to the Partnership for Public Service.
If officially embraced by Trump, the return-to-office has the potential to set off a wave of fights between the White House and the labor unions that cover employees at many federal agencies.
Some workplaces have
longstanding tele-work arrangements that predate the Covid-19 pandemic.
Musk, the CEO of Tesla Inc. and SpaceX, has panned
work-from-home policies, telling CNBC in 2023 that tech workers: “Get off their
goddamn moral high horses with the work-from-home.”
Here’s the latest on two
more of Trump’s harsh & wild plans:
#1 from USAToday: Musk and Ramaswamy outlined a plan Wednesday
for Trump to oversee a massive reduction in the federal workforce, arguing
the employees won't be needed after Trump eliminates “thousands of regulations.”
Musk and Ramaswamy have now singled out in a Wall Street Journal op-ed federal employees “who view themselves
as immune from firing thanks to civil-service protections.”
The duo pointed to recent Supreme Court decisions to argue the “incoming president has the executive power to nullify many regulations, pursue large-scale firings of federal workers, and relocate some agencies outside of Washington.
They also said: “A drastic reduction in federal
regulations would require vastly fewer federal employees.”
#2. Trump now opposes the Constitutional First Amendment,
which in part guarantees and protects “Freedom of the Press” with a new Press
Freedom bill now circulating in Congress – the very bill that he urges Republicans
to block.
What is the full
story on that bill?
Trump wrote in a post to his Truth Social network which
linked to PBS News Hour video that discussed the “Protect Reporters from Exploitative State Spying Act” (Acronym
the; “P.R.E.S.S Act) telling the
GOP: “REPUBLICANS MUST KILL THIS BILL!!!”
Musk, the CEO of Tesla Inc. and SpaceX, has panned
work-from-home policies himself saying on CNBC in 2023 that tech workers should
“…get
off their goddamn moral high horses with the work-from-home mindset
[sic].”
My 2 Cents: I’m sure, with no
positive evidence of the destruction being laid upon the pubic since Trump won on
November 5th in his one-day dictator for only one day spewing.
Folks, it’s here now and right in our collective face and it is uglee…
Prove me wrong – bet even MAGA
types can’t or won’t even ‘fess up and other than by spreading more of you know
what.
Oh yeah I wonder if anyone regrets voting for Trump. Whew, that’s the $64,000 question isn’t it?
Thanks for stopping by.
