Hahaha I told people this would happen.
They should invite Boeing to collaborate on them, and OceanGate for their subs
Well, the resistance had better start stocking up on super soakers and water balloons.
This is just the tip of the iceberg.
It's not an accident that Muskntrump are slashing federal spending but Trump threatened a government shutdown to get the debt ceiling increased.
It's all sleight of hand. The budget cuts are intended solely to cripple departments and programs that benefit common people or inconvenience the wealthy and empowered few, and all of the money that's not spent on those programs and agencies (and more) is going be funneled directly into the pockets of the wealthy and empowered few.
NO money is actually going to be saved. It's just going to be redirected, to even more directly benefit the wealthy few.
Example: Wonder how much the secret service has paid him since 2016. https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/481998-trump-hotels-charge-secret-service-up-to-650-per-night-while/
Well but um but well that just means that he's smart because hes gaming the system
He just tells it like it is
He's a businessman
And you can be 100% certain that that blatantly wasteful spending is not going to be cut.
Meanwhile, paying people to oversee pollution levels and ensure that industries don't make it so that people aren't poisoned by the air they breathe - that's going to called wasteful spending and is going to be cut.
All so that a handful of billionaires can enjoy even more privilege.
I just realized how insane this while thing is.
The worlds richest man has installed himself as America's fraud watchdog. Finds zero so far, simultaneously winning .4 billion contract for his carbon credit company that makes cars.
I hope they lock when they spontaneously catch fire.
And the log files show the system switched to manual control precisely 3ms before the explosion, every time.
jesus fuck.
He's defunding efforts to install EV chargers, but wants to outfit the state department in EVs?
Well that money wasn't for only Tesla charging stations. That's your problem.
While I agree with the whole corruption thing, chargers are also pretty important for swastikars. IANAL, but I believe that the release of NACS meant that NACS-only chargers would qualify for funding, even when no one else has it natively yet.
I'm sure part of it was just to kill everything Biden did, and that might be the whole reason. It's possible they push a new credit that will heavily favor Elno's businesses.
One dumb thing Biden did.
Should’ve forced the CCS chargers just to give Musk the finger.
It's not important as long as the government gives Musk more money. Why should he care if these Teslas are lawn ornaments?
The US Government will be one Car Wash away from being immobile.
Also, one tiny rough 10 degree incline from being completely immobile.
Our adversaries are loading up on baseballs.
And probably digging impossible to cross two foot deep moat.
Dubya spent way more than that on his RV fleet.
