  1. This kind of white people warrant a government study.
  2. We got in trouble for posting signs on the bathrooms at work. At least HR sent communication about hygiene. Broadly shared since it is not PC to only notify the H1B1 Visas. I do not miss that office... I once counted 14 stalls across four floors before I could find an open stall. Why are there the same amount of bathrooms for girls in a building full of engineers? It was a problem in the old buildings repeated in brand new buildings. Real American Genius.
  3. Cornel's homeless wrestler is hard to take down and had an inspirational speech. You would never know he wrestled from his tweets.
  4. Friendly reminder that you are arguing with a sock puppet.
  5. Value for value; Zero problems observed. We shouldn't be interfering to begin with.
  6. I like Ron Paul's economic and foreign policy positions. He is associated with racism through association to people that have contributed content under his newsletters or social media. There is zero evidence that he wrote or approved that content, was associated to Operation Red Dog, and the like. I have never seen Ron Paul make direct racist comments and such, and I dug thoroughly when he was running for president. His views fit on small government, limited government intervention, etc. appeal to many types of people, including those that published content under his name. There is some smell there but I can't inspect it. There is substantially less evidence of Ron Paul being racist as compared to the direct comments that people like Joe Biden are on direct record for saying. Ron Paul gets A grades for his passion and economic positions. I have no idea if he has the skills to actually run the audit... more of a figure head type person that can make decisions but not likely in the details.
  7. What is your stance on speeding in an emergency? What is absolutely illegal about DOGE? Have you read the EO? https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/establishing-and-implementing-the-presidents-department-of-government-efficiency/ Obama made an executive order to create the United States Digital Service. Trump renamed USDS to DOGE. These DOGE teams are larger than special government employees like Musk and Big Balls. DOGE Teams. In consultation with USDS, each Agency Head shall establish within their respective Agencies a DOGE Team of at least four employees, which may include Special Government Employees, hired or assigned within thirty days of the date of this Order. Agency Heads shall select the DOGE Team members in consultation with the USDS Administrator. Each DOGE Team will typically include one DOGE Team Lead, one engineer, one human resources specialist, and one attorney. Agency Heads shall ensure that DOGE Team Leads coordinate their work with USDS and advise their respective Agency Heads on implementing the President ‘s DOGE Agenda. Agency Heads shall take all necessary steps, in coordination with the USDS Administrator and to the maximum extent consistent with law, to ensure USDS has full and prompt access to all unclassified agency records, software systems, and IT systems. USDS shall adhere to rigorous data protection standards. This Executive Order displaces all prior executive orders and regulations, insofar as they are subject to direct presidential amendment, that might serve as a barrier to providing USDS access to agency records and systems as described above. It's just insane that anyone would work so hard to cover up government corruption. But I guess some leaders are raking in the dough from it, or they’re scared stiff to lose power when the truth comes out. And how can everyday folks support those who want to keep this mess in the dark? Then you've got Elon Musk, getting all this flak just for trying to do something good for everyone.
  8. Great! The federal government has spent $711 billion more than it has collected in fiscal year (FY) 2025, and is on track to spend ~2T it does not have. Will there be mistakes made? Yes. Is the speed worth it? Absolutely.
  9. Did it work? Sometimes people need a good slap to wake them from their delusions. This isn't pedantics. Musk is not president. He is not all powerful. He is advising on how to make the government more efficient, in alignment with Agenda 47, in alignment with what the majority of the country supports.
  10. Did you watch the Rogan interview? I'll admit some speeches are more coherent than others... But listen to the man in long form and it is not the story the media says...
  11. Something about this seems shady... Profiting off a non profit Reinstated to leadership after being fired for lying A sister claiming abuse at his hands
  12. it’s just scouts now discuss
  13. The feasibility of culture integration should be a top consideration to importing refugees. There has to be a questionnaire to help... Basic Information Do you speak/read/write fluent English? Do you have formal education? Do you respect women's rights as equal to men's rights? Do you know and are you willing to adopt US cultures and customs? Will you follow the USA laws? Do you know and understand the bill of rights? Do you understand the importance of punctuality in American culture and will you strive to be on time for appointments and work? Do you understand and adhere to expectations of personal accountability? Other Cultural and Behavioral Norms I will shower and wear deodorant. I will not eat pets. I will not urinate on the floor. I will wash my hands after using the bathroom. I will not wipe boogers on the bathroom walls. I understand and will respect personal space and privacy. I respect and will adhere to the concept of freedom of religion from my own. I will respect public property and not engage in littering or vandalism. I will not engage in or tolerate domestic violence or any form of abuse.
  14. STOP. The structure of DOGE as an advisory body outside the formal government framework means Musk lacks the legal power to enact policy changes or make direct decisions like closing departments or altering budgets without further governmental processes. You know what Musk is an expert at? Efficiency, financial management, and innovation. He has repeatedly done more with less at his companies by focusing on core competencies, streamlining production, and cutting unnecessary costs. He has exceptional qualifications to advise the USA government on efficiency...
  15. Elon Musk is President. DOGE Shut Down USAID Spending. Musk Controls All Government Spending. DOGE Has Full Control Over the Treasury. Musk Can Single-Handedly Dismantle Federal Agencies. DOGE Has Eliminated Thousands of Federal Jobs Overnight. DOGE Has Access to All Classified Information. DOGE Will Sell Your Personal Information. DOGE Will Shut Down Social Security. 2 + 2 = 5
  16. Where are you getting this idea that "everything" was turned over to him. These are lies from the same people that have been lying. At some point, wake up.
  17. What direct, confirmed evidence suggests that DOGE directly blocked payments? Explain the leap from read only access to blocking payments. The Treasury Department explicitly stated that only two special government employees, associated with DOGE but employed by the Treasury, had "read-only" access to the payment systems. This "read-only" designation means they could view data but not alter it, including not having the capability to block or stop payments directly.
  18. Estimated net worth of Musk. 2020: $27 billion to $150 billion 2021: Peaked at $340 billion 2022: Around $264 billion 2023: Approximately $245 billion 2024: Over $400 billion 2025: Around $424 billion
  19. Do you know if there are zero checks and balances? What is the worst that can occur while DOGE follows law to access data, assess data, and make recommendations based on data? Other people are the decision makers. How can I trust him in his role at DOGE? From the results! To look at all angles, on one hand, account boosting is another example of success in meeting a goal (top gamer account). Of course Musk is a narcissist. He is a CEO with an unshakable belief in his abilities and vision. He inspires confidence in others. He makes bold decisions and wins in in high-stakes environments.
  20. Oh, but we can report his speech to Europe! No worries... that is not what we do.
  21. Thankfully Europe can't apply its speech laws onto the US.
  22. This guy... lunatic. What a horrible person. "The reason I acquired Twitter is because it is important to the future of civilization to have a common digital town square, where a wide range of beliefs can be debated in a healthy manner, without resorting to violence. There is currently great danger that social media will splinter into far right wing and far left wing echo chambers that generate more hate and divide our society." Did you see how he prioritized short term profit over the mission. What an idiot "If somebody's going to try to blackmail me with advertising? Blackmail me with money? Go ***duck** yourself. Go. ***duck**. Yourself. Is that clear?" /s
