... The news comes as concerns continue to grow in Washington about the extent of the SpaceX boss's influence over Trump, having sat in on personnel meetings, conducted talks with foreign leaders and helped to tank a bipartisan spending bill in congress. ...

The question is ... when Pres-elect Trump moves to the White House, will Mr Musk occupy the Queen's Bedroom or the Lincoln Bedroom?

When are the Repubs going to step up and demand an unelected moron stop getting to call shots he's not qualified or elected to make?

For a group of people who hate government, they sure are lax with allowing the worst thing to happen to it under their watch.

Perhaps that particular outcome is viewed as ~achieving their goals?~

One wonders if all far right politicians have backers pushing them, or assisting them, in the class warfare that takes from the poor and gives to the rich. I imagine if Trump were ever to turn to the left, Musk would be at his shoulder shutting him down, or at least calling out the far right army of thugs, as in Jan. 6.

The good news is that because Leon doesn't bathe all the towels will be there when he checks out. The bad news is that he isn't housebroken ...

Leon wants to be close to his most prized possession.

People will start to call Musk's condo, "The-------- Hotel" for what goes down there between him and his boy the orange pig traitor.

And then there's this. It should be quite the year.

As co-president in waiting, does Musk get a discount on what Don Lardo charges the Secret Service at his Palm Beach pile?
