Trump 47

[Stillwater Townie]

I guess my argument would be that the folks with credentials/experience have been in charge of this disaster all along and here we are. Let’s do something different for a change.

That starts with giving up your addiction toward voting only for incumbents every election day. Some incumbents have been in Congress since the 1990s and before. I don't know of anything they have done about waste and corruption in government other than at best talk about it as in the late Sen. Coburn.

The Pentagon has failed 7 audits in a row by folks with credentials/experience . Care to guess how many times the Pentagon has actually been audited? If you guessed 7 you would be correct. Now tell me how transparent those audits were and where that $850b/yr is going.

Congress is responsible for doing something about those audits by making changes in how the Pentagon runs things. Congress probably decided not to do anything and risk facing an audit how it runs its own things in return. That is a major downside to corruption and starts with you refusing to vote out your incumbents in Congress. So that makes you a party to the corruption.

Listen, people being upset with the unlawful or unconstitutional ways Musk and Trump are trying to go about in making major changes is a conservative response to the situation, not liberal.

The conservative way to get rid of children of foreigners born in the U. S. automatically made U. S. citizens is through a constitutional amendment. Trump's way of doing it is unconstitutional and radical.

Or maybe we see what is behind door number three?

"When Elon took over Twitter - and he had kind of all of the goals that he talked about publicly. He wanted to rid the platform of bots and spam. He wanted to eliminate child sexual exploitation material. These were all things that most people could agree on. At the same time, a few years after the acquisition took place, we're in a position of saying, well, those goals do not look like they were achieved in many cases. And the overall goal, the kind of unsaid, unspoken initiative to turn Twitter into X - into a political operation that would elevate right-wing politicians in the United States and around the globe - that goal has been very successful," she says.

(And I’m not a liberal nor am I triggered)

This thread is rife with posters making claims of a perceived lack of transparency. Per usual mislead, misdirect, and mischaracterize. Again, you should probably sit this one out.

And I feel you very much love and look up in awe to Alex Jones and his friend Mike Adams. I take them as unfunny and disgusting jokes.
