Putin winning bigly!
MUSK is the Capitalist version of PUTIN
It’s almost as if it makes sense to carefully deliberate major governmental decisions, rather than allowing hasty actions by an unelected immigrant billionaire and his youthful squad of techie vandals. If only we had a body of 535 or so elected representatives to deliberate such things.
If only…
Weak! Should have kept with the firings so Trump and the Republicans can deal with the fall out.
Also what do you think this does to moral?I guarantee these workers, if they even come back, are now all polishing their resumes and looking for other work.
unfortunately, the “fall out” from this debacle tends to make us glow in the dark and contaminate the ground, water, and air.
As for the comment by Mr. Plonski, it should be obvious to all by now that Trusk, Mumps, PJ Pance and the MAGAts running this clown show (with apologies to clowns) have no interest in leading anything internationally. Outside of working against former allies on one-sided trade, the MAGAts want nothing to do with the rest of the world. Oh, unless it gives Trush an opportunity to develop a new party place in the Mid East.
John Kennedy said in 1961 “Let the word go out from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation…and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights t which this nation has always been committed, and to which we are committed to today, at home and abroad…Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, to assure the survival and success of liberty.”
Want to ask Ukraine and Europe if they believe we’ll oppose a foe, support a friend, to assure liberty? Or will Trusk and the MAGAts divvy up the world into spheres of influence, and leave liberty and democracy to rot.
I guess we can forget about all of that…its American for itself, with no moral underpinning except White Christian Nationalism and hostility towards those who don’t look white, Christian, and willing to bend their knee.
Perhaps the most embarrassing of all this is the nephew of John Kennedy is now Secretary of HHS…an embarrasment to his family, his roots, and Irish heritage.
Chain saw vs scalpel = oopsy!
Stupid and reckless. Hallmark of this presidency so far.
LOL. LMAO, even.
We’ve only just begun.
Disappointing. We trusted him.
