Musk Warns Congress: I’m Keeping a ‘Naughty or Nice’ List

Elon Musk warned lawmakers Thursday at the Capitol that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) task force would be keeping a “naughty or nice” list of members who do and don’t support his federal budget-cutting efforts.

DOGE, heading by both Musk and former Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, is expected to work with the White House Office of Management and Budget—headed by incoming director Russ Vought, who held the same role during Donald Trump’s first term.

The majority of attendees of Thursday’s question-and-answer session were Republicans. Florida Rep. Aaron Bean told ABC News that Musk and Ramaswamy “said everything has to be looked at” regarding cuts.

Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene told reporters afterwards that the event was “just what I’d hoped for.”

And as for Musk’s Christmas-themed effort to keep track of—and presumably whip—support, she said: “I think that would be fantastic.”

“There’s a massive amount of waste, fraud and abuse that we have to tackle, and I will be doing that with my subcommittee,” said Greene, who will chair an oversight committee on DOGE’s agenda when the next Congress begins. “I am looking forward to exposing every single unelected bureaucrat, every single agency that is wasting the American people’s money.”

The party of unbridled, fully exposed HATE.

Why can't it be "We aim to trim the fat a little bit?" No, it's got to be "“I am looking forward to exposing every single unelected bureaucrat!" Exposing?! As thought the people in question -- these bureaucrats in question -- didn't merely answer a job ad?

All the glee about firing people lately -- it's inhuman. Trimming the fat is one thing, and we know what that is a euphemism for - firings. But to treat these workers like criminals just for taking a job, and relishing the idea of putting thousands of people out of work -- fathers, mothers -- it's SICK.

Here's Elon's father recounting the event:

[quote] (Elon's father) also recalled a time when Elon made a hurtful comment to a schoolmate about his father's suicide. The boy pushed Elon down a staircase at school, injuring him so badly he had to be hospitalized.

[quote] When he heard what had happened, Errol (Elon's father) wanted to defend his son. "But I realized Elon overstepped the mark with this little boy. I had to drop it," he said.

The child also rode Musk when Musk got in trouble for some antisemitic statements. Musk hurried off to Auschwitz with the same kid on his back to show he wasn't antisemitic, even if he sounded that way.

The kid is a PR accessory meant to humanize Musk, even though Musk didn't even spend time at Thanksgiving with the kid or any or the kid's 26 other siblings. (Ok, 11 other siblings.)

There's no way Donald Trump is going to let this annoying son of a bitch continue hog the daily headlines once he's back in office. I think he's letting Elon feel important and influential now as payback for propping up his election campaign. Come January, Musk will eiither step back or risk falling out of favor with Trump. To those saying "Who elected Elon to office?," people knew voting for Trump meant supporting the entire lunatic clown show around him, including Elon, Vivek and the like. They're getting what they wanted, chaos.

All of this because Biden and garland refused to have trump investigated for one of the worst crimes on American soil, from the highest office in the land. They let trump walk around for 3 YEARS before being SHAMED into finally starting to investigate him (knowing he'd never make it to trial).

Hunter wasn't Biden's first pardon. donald trump was.

Biden essentially pardoned trump and the insurrectionist republican politicians for the insurrection. Not starting an investigation within the first month of his term in office guaranteed trump and his conspirators would never go to trial .

letting republicans get away with crimes for over 4 decades. They are the reason things are the way they are. Never fighting back, is what emboldened trump and the republicans. They KNEW the democrats wouldn't do a thing.

Boy Grimes really shit the bed getting involved with Musk. She actually deluded herself into believing that Musk was some kind of genius savior of humanity. When they were expecting their first child she was saying things like this:

"In the Rolling Stone profile, Grimes offers her endorsement of Bernie Sanders, even if one of the candidate’s central planks is that billionaires, like Musk, should not exist.“I was hard, hard, hard left before,” Grimes told the magazine. Grimes, however, remains convinced that Musk’s money can be used for good, and that his businesses are in keeping with her values. (Tesla is, after all, an electric-car company).

“There are a lot of problems in the world that we need to solve. The government does not truly have the capacity to solve them. My boyfriend is actually doing it, tangibly, visibly—like, you just can’t deny it.” She claims that Musk rarely takes vacation, isn’t particularly interested in luxury, and puts the money he earns back into research and development.

“When I look at the aims of my boyfriend and I look at the aims of Bernie, like, their end goals are very similar. Fix environmental problems, reduce suffering,” she says. “It’s worth dissecting the wealth gap, it’s worth dissecting the existence of billionaires, but situations have nuance.”

Nuance. HA! Yes, when I think of Elon Musk, I think of nuance. And altruism. Sure, Jan.

Grimes and Musk's relationship was 100% founded on and fueled by drug use and delusions of grandeur. Now that Grimes has fucked around and found out -- and with three kids, has probably sobered up -- I wonder what her opinions are now that Musk spent a quarter of a BILLION dollars on getting Trump reelected?

And Elon keeps that little boy from Grimes, his mother, and parades their little son around like some kind of trophy or amulet. And she's had to take him to court because he was keeping the child for months at a time. Family values though, am I right?

by Anonymousreply 28December 7, 2024 3:53 PM

The singer, whose real name is Claire Boucher, said she had “spent a year locked in battle in a state with terrible mothers rights.” She presumably was referring to Texas, where Musk, the world’s richest man, now lives and operates his SpaceX, Tesla and other companies.

Grimes said she only had “a fraction of his resources” to fight for access to her children, while her Instagram posts and modeling were “used as reasons I shouldn’t have my kids.”

Grimes added that she has been “fighting and detaching from the love of my life as he becomes unrecognizable to me … all the while I didn’t see one of my babies for 5 months.”

“Having babies rips you apart and puts you back together,” Grimes said. “Babies are ten thousand philosophy classes of (expletive) you can only learn from that experience.”

In another post shared Wednesday, Grimes wrote that she was “going bankrupt” from the custody suit. “I just slept and cried every minute I wasn’t explicitly fighting for my kids during that year,” she said.

Grimes teased that she could say a lot more, but said she’s limited in what she discloses publicly. She said that most of her experiences in recent years “should remain behind closed doors.”

Don't you all see what Elon is doing? What he's constructing for himself?

The guy is beyond smart. I have to laugh at those here calling him a loser.

He bought Twitter, still a huge megaphone, where he can post his unbridled opinions and be at no risk of censure. And he can elevate the messaging of others who agree with him. And influence the opinion of others.

He's maneuvered himself into the White House and brought along friends in the Silicon Vally tech world.

The guy who has billions in government contracts has appointed himself head of an entity that has the task of cutting government spending! LOL. What better way to squash competition.

He's worming his way into taking over NASA. The privately owned SpaceX is more efficient than wasteful government run NASA....that will be the story.

He recently founded an AI company that already has 50 billion in funding. Rest assured that his company will be the one to run government operations in the name of efficiency and cost cutting.

And on top of all of that, his estimated worth is about 100 billion more than it was a year ago.

The guy is brilliant. He's putting together the pieces to create...uh...we don't know exactly.

Elon Musk is so damn annoying and he's become nothing more than a parasitic attention whore. He could have just remained the quirky billionaire businessman. But that wasn't enough and now that he's found a fellow narcissist in Donald Trump, the desire to throw his money around and play kingmaker in World politics will eventually cause him to overplay his hand. Trump will eventually fall out with him. It has happened to other Trump loyalists and Musk's turn will come soon.
