The world’s richest man jumped headlong into a MAGA meltdown Monday after Pam Bondi's Justice Department and the FBI shot down claims about a so-called “client list” belonging to late child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Elon Musk posted scorn at the claim on X, just weeks after he made a sensational...

    And sorry Elon, I don’t believe your sudden spin back into UBI after the whole DOGE saga, you’re a POS.

        Drugs I feel is a convenient excuse he’s backspinning.

        Plenty of people take drugs and don’t decide to make DOGE.

        Plenty of people in power do drugs and also didn’t decide that DOGE was a good idea.

        It’s not drugs, it’s not the result of them.

        It’s just him.

          Decent person + drugs = fun/funny Insecure asshole + drugs = DOGE + Nazi salute + inflated ego.

          Probably missing some terms but you get the idea.

          It’s not drugs, it’s not the result of them.

          They’re affecting him and his decisions. How they are is open to debate. If you’re nodding out on camera in the Oval Office, maybe you have a problem.

        You had to add “male”. In reality so many women voted MAGA.

      Like I keep saying, the cons are very weird and are very keen on the baby talk (meaningless and completely undefined googoo/gaagaa words like “maga”, “maha”, “big beautiful bill”, and just about everything out of Taco’s mouth on virtually any topic), although “big bomb” is just being kind of bombastic in my view and is less baby talk.

        Trump is illiterate and has advanced dementia, so it makes sense.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
