This better happen is all I have to say.

Hakeem Jeffries seems a little weak-kneed about pursuing accountability. Hope his private meeting with Jared didn’t push him in the direction of compromise.

Who the Hell does this Musk think he is? No you pay taxes like the rest of us and then we’ll set up all your companies you have getting out of paying taxes and make them pay. Let’s remember this is for the country, not for the wealthy. Greed can go with trump, he can rule on Epstein Island only.

SpaceX & Tesla & Starlink need to be nationalized. He's a threat to world peace as he's proven in Ukraine

I wrote an entire article about the billionaires in their bunkers and how eventually their depravity will destroy them. There are a lot of these bastards who will suffer the ultimate punishment.

This explains the fate of the billionaire class. Hopefully in 10 years or so they will end up in their bunkers, and they will end up dying in their bunkers.

What I don't see is any commentary on a wake up call for the Democrats to do something to dismantle the requirements for health insurance and food supplementation benefits that are going to be lost very soon courtesy of the big beautiful Bill. This is going to have massive massive consequences because this poison pill is a time bomb waiting to go off in the next couple months. Most people will not be paying attention to the fact that it was something from last year's bill. They will think it is the Democrats fault that they're losing their health insurance. The Democrats need to get out front be vocal and frequent and uncompromising about what is going on whose fault it was, i.e. the last Congress, and what they are going to work to do about it. They will short circuit a large portion of their support either actual or potential if the uninformed voters who are legion in this country come to the belief they lost their health insurance because of the Democrats - all because of the genius of the Republican parties timing the cuts to coincide with the new year and the new Congress

The 1st thing my representative said was she, Hillary Scholten, wants to undo the devastating Medicaid and SNAP cuts. They will be doing something.

Democrats are the controlled opposition. Republicans are a deadly poisonous mushroom, but the Democrats are toxic mushrooms that makes you really sick.

The billionaires may end up exterminating themselves, and I wrote an article about that. They are actually running scared and their mansions in their bunkers will be their prisons and eventually their graves.

Democrats do not defend themselves well....all heads are where sun dont shine....sad.

Musk needs to be investigated no doubt. He listen to a 34 count convicted president felon and hacked government agencies. No doubt he should have known you support Trump you go to jail. History has proven this. Also, you follow Trump you can go bankrupt. History has shown this too.

Unbelievably I NEVER hear any criticism of E about destroying our government agencies and stealing sensitive data. If you did that prison would await right????

Hopefully the evidence is being gathered. Maybe it’s why he’s building rockets and robots and everything to go live in a place where there is no air. There he won’t need money either.

David Garcia's avatar

Since what he did is a felony I pray with democrats check and balances and rule of law prevail

David Garcia's avatar

That is true. Bill Gates also won against the federal government to when they tried to sue him.

This circumstance is a felony. You can’t under normal circumstances bring a team of hackers and break into Social Security. Maybe with a democrat controlled Congress checks and balances will return.

History has shown the opposite. If you are a wealthy white mail in power you have a "get out of jail free" card ala Confederates, Nixon, Reagan, Bush, Jan 6!?!

I believe that Elon Musk should be examined and investigated like any other US citizen he should not be exempt from the law

Drumpf has been trying to DE-naturalize people he doesn't like, starting with Ilhan Omar. If that is even possible, let him denaturalize Muskrat (and leave Ilhan the hell alone). Could we start a petition or referendum or something?

Congress can investigate, but can they prosecute? I thought they turned their cases over to the DOJ for prosecution and no one in Rumps DOJ will touch anything coming out of Congress unless it's against a Dem supporter?

Hel's avatar

And will Trump Pardon? Yep

Yehawes (VA)'s avatar

Interesting point. I suppose if the evidence is clear enough the state AGs of those states that can show standing can prosecute. Congress can probably access some information/proofs that state AGs would find more difficult to obtain. States can ignore presidential pardons too, so that's relevant.

Musk got ripped off by the Republicans, isn’t that rich? Almost half billion dollars taken from the world’s richest guy.

Charles G Haacker's avatar

Hell, for Muskrat, that's pocket change, lint included.

Hound's avatar

$474 million to a pile of shit like Elon Musk would be like going to McDonald’s and buying your kids a happy meal.

Elon is running scared because a lot of people wanna kill him. All of these billionaire bunker building bastards are nervous.

Hound's avatar

Democrats can’t or won’t investigate anything if it’s going to cost them bribery. Maybe with a majority they will settle some scores with the Republicans but if we want government to serve the people and no one else we’re gonna have to amend the constitution. Article article 5 effects of 80% of state legislators. Want to prevent the constitution is the goddamn bastards in the federal government can do about it.

Teresa Thomson's avatar

Very good summation! Thanks

Ric Spencer's avatar

That is a true story, why live with the enemy? He helps them out without no problem, I guess because they are corrupt and that’s what he’s looking for. Trump did teach him that, it seemed to work.

Stuyvesant Bearns's avatar

Well, Elon, I guess $474 million is just a five dollar bill to you, but it is money you wasted and money you won't be able to spend in 2028. Perhaps you thought that you could just BUY America.

Finally, we need accountability. We need to send a message to the wealthy donor class …get the hell out of our elections and do it now!

Hold on folks. Disagreement with a PAC’s ads or existence of legally operated PACs is no excuse for bad mouthing individuals. Civil disagree should be the goal for all people.

Folks, firmly act on the principle of one vote for each eligible voter. Do not act like dollars spent or number of ads is a vote multiplier. The voters have the power even without formal political campaign reforms.

Currently any person or group of people can setup PACs to publish ads to target a group or political candidate.

It is currently the responsibiliy of each reader and listener to ignore, down value or bit bucket these PAC ads or propaganda souces.

It is currently a personal option of a candidate to not form PACs or accept PAC money when allowed, or approve PAC ads when allowed.

(My opinion) The United States goverment needs to reform viable guidelines for PACs and have watch dogs to ensure they are being followed.

For example, no person in goverment power or business power above a person should be allowed to demand contributions to a PAC or fund via direct or veiled threats or promises of harm to individuals or businesses.

For example, blatant bad faith misinformation and disinformation should not be allowed.

For example, require ad source and approval by, when applicable, be in the lead in font or audio, as applicable, consumable by most consumers, not just present.

I also want them to investigate all of the agencies that were shut down or modified to stop investigations into Musk’s business dealings.
