Surely to be a clown show. We know that RFK certainly thinks he’s getting nominated for HHS, which includes FDA.

That might be what he’s saying: we can cut building costs by keeping them on telework but that’s hardly a long overdue idea to ‘dismantle the bureaucracy.’ It’s certainly true but that’s not what the Trump/Elon agenda is really after.

Especially since Elon told his employees to either return to the office or be considered as resigning.

Y'all can't be coming in here talking in code (unless we know said code...)

The secret code is "friends of mine," and you know me, I'm interested in sociable persons, not necessarily politically aligned the same as me, friends, i.e. like Farb. "Friends of mine."

Someone named Glen might show up as well. Another friend of mine.

There might be few Liberals come along too, they're "friends of mine" Not a sock amoung them.

If we are already getting anonymous "holy shirt this guy is annoying" stories I'm not sure Elon Musk makes it to Inauguration Day in Trump's inner circle. He might be on a 2016 Transition Chair Chris Christie arc https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna179826

Apparently Elon is overstaying his welcome down at Mar-a-Lago.

I bet Elon Musk smells bad at Mar-a-Lago.

Wouldn't smell bad around me, but I'm accustomed to the smell. A sheep smell, sheep/mutton cooking in the kitchen smell.

Your friends are welcome Sam!

As is anyone of any persuasion as long as they are able to carry on civil discussion.

This is just hoping people quit when they do a RTO mandate. It's extremely hard to fire federal employees they are hoping they quit.

Elon, Bezos, etc have all done this to avoid the "Company lays off 15,000 employees."

The problem they are going to have is who leaves? The people who can easily get the another WFH job, aka your best and brightest. That doesn't matter for FAANG companies with high turnover anyways. It will for the feds.

Burgum’s two terms as governor of the truly natural western state of North Dakota is sufficient credentials for secretary of the interior. Clearly has the administration credentials.

 

[fooferdoggie]

And let me add... Trump has to know there is zero chance Kennedy gets confirmed. He keeps his promise only to blame the Senate for not letting it go through. The only way Kennedy sees the inside of HHS is as a visitor or as a recess appointment.

Don't bet on it.

 

[faceman]

Don't bet on it.

I won't lie. I'm a bit concerned. I didn't think Trump would nominate him in the first place,

He’s fine, certainly relative to these others.

RFK, Jr is a dangerous sociopath. Very similar to Trump. I had hoped Trump wouldn’t nominate him, but here we are. What’s worse is that the Trump cult has embraced him, and his crazy ideas have new following from MAGA. I don’t trust that the GOP will show any courage to stand up to Trump if he really pushes for him to be nominated, even though it will cause children to die. That’s not hyperbole, because we have seen RFK, Jr cause children to die before. There were 2 deaths of children in Samoa from a tragic human error in mixing the MMR vaccine. Until RFK, Jr got there. Then the death was magnified greatly due to his influence.

Fwiw, Trump is fully vaccinated and boosted for Covid.

Trump Admits Getting Covid Vaccine Booster—After Earlier Saying He ‘Probably’ Wouldn’t

A group of his supporters jeered the remarks, which seemed to annoy the ex-president.

My guess is that RFK, Jr is himself vaccinated and boosted. He uses anti-vax to get attention and notoriety. He doesn’t care if kids die because of his activities, which makes him a sociopath.

I wouldn’t be surprised if most of the anti vaxxers (politicians, media, podcasters) are vaxxed and boosted themselves

I feel the same. I'm trying to find an article I read a few years ago,but not having any luck. It said
the death of Herman Cain really scared Trump.

 

[fooferdoggie]

Only the very best people, right?

trump likes him some pedo's for sure.

 

[fooferdoggie]

his failures become our failures.

I also think his bout with Covid scared him. He was truly sick, and if they hadn’t given him everything they had - some of which wasn’t yet approved for general population - he may have died.
