This is a joke right? Let's check...

Department of government "efficiency" that has 2 bosses....

The acronym is D.O.G.E....

Nope, this is real.

We are living in the Idiocracy.

"Government" and "efficiency" A contradiction in terms

What's wrong?

What's wrong?

Nothing yet, but assigning two bosses to the department focused on efficiency isn't exactly an auspicious start.

Not to mention the massive conflict of interests having a government advisory position who does massive amounts of business with the government and regularly communicates with Putin in violation of the Logan act.

Sadly!

Indeed. I don't have a lot of hope that Elon's definition of "efficiency" isn't going to just be "outsource to the private sector - preferably to a company I own."

I'm not getting the joke.

I'm not getting the joke.

The last time I complained about that, I was told that the jokes were too sophisticated for me. So...

I literally laughed this morning with the daily unfolding of appointments. One by one they will find themselves on the Trump heap of the discarded and meaningless.

I can't laugh with this bunch. What a nightmare! and now

Trump picks former Rep. Lee Zeldin to be his EPA administrator​

Putting a fox to protect the henhouse. Deregulate and put profits ahead of the environment. At this tipping point in our environmental crisis we are basically giving up.

Our Father has a bigger plan. Continue the great delusion,let the adversary feed the flesh what it wants. But you are right, I shouldn't laugh I should pray, I know only a remnant will survive and come back to their first love, Jesus Christ of Nazareth, and do the will of the Father. He prophesied this warning many times:

-Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it."

But when you give a feast, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, and you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you. For you will be repaid at the resurrection of the just."

"Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would have been fighting, that I might not be delivered over to the Jews. But my kingdom is not from the world.”

After all of Elons efforts...... this?

I would have picked him for something meaningful. Like Ambassador to Mars.

This will be a thorn in Trump's side. I remember the accusations of Trump's businesses globally and compared to Musk he's a shrimp.

 

[Servus]

Awesome

I am excited to have my mail delivered by "Cybertruck"!

What is it about Musk that people don't like him being a Billionaire or his politics? From the outside looking in his companies are doing good in this world.

 

[Chesterton]

All of it. All of it is the joke.

If you're in charge of a large office, you might need to hire two office managers, maybe even three. I love a good joke, but there's no joke here.
