Trump just wanted to stay out of jail, make more money, be idolized and play golf. I think he's happy to have Musk take over for now. He totally lied to his MAGA supporters but it may be too late. Republicans have all the power, and hopefully we will have an election in 2026 and 2028 to throw them out. But I'm a little concerned that they might find a reason to cancel the election or not follow the results like last time.

They won't need to cancel elections, because they will have assured that no one who would not vote for them can vote. They've been enacting voter suppression laws and gerrymandering in the states for years, and now the coup d'grace, for those states that have not gone along, is the SAVE Act. One glimmer of hope are the two special elections in Florida that will occur on April 1. If either of those seats flip, the Republicans lose control of the House.

NOPE. We the PEOPLE ARE ON THE GROUND. They DO NOT CONTROL US. Their illusion of power is in their russian-owned narrative. NOT in the streets.

They defended the criminal insurrectionist and J6ers yet being petty about a metaphor. Can we please fast forward to Nov.2026! I want to see all these spineless lunatics fired!

Canada should.

I’m across from Canada here in Michigan and I’m so embarrassed and feel shameful that the US is picking on the nicest and easiest country to deal with.

Seriously, this post is old and traitor Trump is still continuing to ruin anything good to say the least.

Trump is a traitor, I do not know how everyone in the world can’t see that, I’m sure our enemies do and he’ll make even more blood money.

He is buyable and is selling out the US for his pocket.

Now in June 2025 he’s the richest he’s ever been without his daddy’s money from the richest in the world and from his “people” who voted his ignorance in.

He has a lot of blood money, he’s happy to still start wars to get what he wants from our enemies.

It’s pathetic that one of the dumbest human beings, traitor poser Trump, is filthy rich off of every Americans back and interests.

And also the president. Gross

What a president to influence kids…

Just so assbackwards and stupid.

The Trump administration along with their new DOJ are protecting Musk.

Another country could act - but Elon is sticking around the White House and Trump. Probably the best protection in the world and the American taxpayers are likely paying for this.

The FAA just said that they are testing Musk's Starlink system for Air Traffic Control. Currently, Verizon provides weather, position, etc. information. Musk fired the technicians at the FAA that maintain the communications equipment. Now he is going to make big bucks by selling the FAA on Starlink. I don't think Starlink is reliable enough for air traffic control, but I've not seen any data on that. Will the FAA do a fair analysis of the safety of using Starlink? (doubtful)

The Republicans in Congress are canceling town halls because they don’t want to hear the truth about what is happening. I hope those that voted for the felon and the congressional enablers are happy with this destruction of our country.

They stopped having town halls because traitor trump told them too!!!

That is exactly why they aren’t talking to anybody in their states.

It’s disgusting how these rich, out of touch white men are such pussies and only worry about themselves.

They all think if they just go along with traitor Trump they’ll get relected automatically.

They don’t know that traitor Trump could give f about them in any way except for now.

Good idea. Also, I saw something a couple days ago that suggested we all do our own town hall if they won't, without them, record it, no edits, call them out and post them all over social media as much as we can

We can arrest musk if he shows up in Illinois. We have computer privacy laws here and he stole our financial information from the Treasury. He won’t like jail here with prison guards who have darker complexions. Our Attorney General is a participant in many multi state lawsuits against the musk/trump regime. Does musk live in the White House so he can assist trump with his personal care needs?

The GOP is GOOP - spineless blobs who need to be booted out of office for failing to fulfill thier duty. I mean booted not not in 2026 - they have breached the contract they made when elected. If I buy a porche and I get a bicycle then I have a right to reimbursement. We voted for representatives not billionaires slaves.

The American people have a right to know what exactly Trump promised Musk in return for Musk's payment of campaign contributions to Trump. Why hasn't any reporter directed that question to Trump? Or better yet, to both of them?

Legacy media is not out front asking the real questions. They are too busy with the marching orders from their own corporate overlords, like what's happening with WaPo. I mean, AP got blackballed for a fairly small thing but it's not like before that they weren't constantly sane-washing Trump either.

I have noticed of late that CBS’s evening news with their new anchors including John Dickerson are hitting Dump hard, every single night. The first 10-15 minutes of every evening since they took over is devoted to the bullshit going on with Dump and especially, Musk. That was not the case before or since the election for them or any other Legacy news channel. Ben Meisalas and the MeidasTouch crew is always my first choice for updates and breaking stories now, but I do watch the other channels at certain times and CBS has improved, dramatically. Just Sayin.

Musk had concerns about the numerous regulatory investigations he *was* under and he was afraid of Harris too. No one knows exactly why but he didn't buy the election just to save Trump's ass. Just look at the agencies he gleefully tore apart first. Also just got himself a real nice contract with the FAA through Starlink. Nothing to see here.
