  1. “55 minutes ago
    Tech titan Elon Musk ratcheted up his offensive against Donald Trump’s signature tax bill on Wednesday, urging that Americans contact their lawmakers to “KILL” the legislation.


    “Call your Senator, Call your Congressman,” Musk wrote in a social media post. “Bankrupting America is NOT ok!”…”

    Elon doesn't understand how to bribe corrupt congress.
    Trump should ask himself "Do you feel in charge?"
    Did Trump delegate the Ukraine war to Lindsey Graham?
     
  4. You didn't understand what a nonelected govt official was doing or did. I'll give ya a hint, neuralink. Bessent figured out what else he was doing which resulted in that supposed shouting match. Whether Bessent gave Musk the black eye, who knows.

  6. Musk going full ham on this bullshit bill. Can't blame him. For one it's your typical doesn't really accomplish anything bill, but Musk lost a shitload of support and money by wasting his time trying to unfuck our criminally corrupt government.

  8. Musk did nothing but set himself up to get more contracts and money from the federal government while persuing some personal objectives. Also he is not American so why is he suddenly concerned about bankrupting the country when that is just bullshit hyperbole. We been increasing spending and revenues since Reagan and increased deficits and there is no bankruptcy for too big to fail countries like ours yet the GOP still screams that mantra.

    Musk has no charity or altruism, he is on the spectrum and cares about money. If TSLA stock was not sliding he would still be getting his ass kissed by trump.

    "Bankrupting" a country that issues debt in its own currency, and whose own citizens hold most of that debt... LOL.
