Cultist Believes Cult Propaganda! Video at 11:00!

Thanks, Trumpers!

Fishpuddy makes sure that everyone knows that he's not got any actual argument about the facts, ever, either.

The Cult Hive Mind is strong in this one..... because there was plenty of extra room in there.

"Musk and colleagues insisted Thursday that Social Security is plagued by fraud, claiming that 40% of calls to phone centers in some cases were fraudulent and that 15 million "living" people age 120+ were on the agency's rolls

"Social Security's acting commissioner has repeatedly downplayed those fraud allegations and said the actual tally was on the order of $100 million a year, a small fraction of 1% of what the agency pays out.

By the numbers: Anger over Musk-driven cuts has spilled over to his business interests, particularly Tesla, whose shares have lost a third of their value this year."

Let's repeat that... Soc Sec pays less than 1 percent of it's Budget for Administration.

None of Musk's companies does that.

Corporations typically allocate around 20-25% of their revenue to administrative expenses, but this can vary significantly based on industry, size, and other factors.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:

"The plaintiffs in the lawsuit claimed that Trump's team, led by Kari Lake, "usurped Congressional power and acted arbitrarily" in violation of the Administrative Procedure Act.

They also claimed that the Trump administration violated a law that ensured that there would be a "firewall" to ensure the editorial integrity of VOA and other networks.

"The disturbing result: In many parts of the world a crucial source of objective news is gone, and only censored state-sponsored news media is left to fill the void," the plaintiffs said in their lawsuit."

And worse, your lack of any semblance of actual thought, any original insults, even, is enough to assure us that you are an incredibly shallow, substance-free troll, bereft of any saving graces.

"She added that she now "regrets" voting for Trump. "To cut the knees out of the working-class Americans just doesn't make sense to me. I expected more from President Donald Trump," she said."

I too am shocked that billionaires running the Gov would act like self-serving spoiled brats, willing to roll over any law or any person or any group in their way.

No one could have predicted... oh, wait, some of us did.

#26 opines that you are a ridiculous caricature of a thinking human being... and that you care not a whit about the obvious Hitlerization of your country.

Or at least you care more about the horse race than the final results.

None of which you have an argument against.

The lack of an actual argument is telling... tells us that:

This is your mind on Trump... who has his private parts in your mouth.

"The American Civil Liberties Union and Democracy Forward sued the Trump administration over its use of the Alien Enemies Act. They said the administration removed people without due process.

Judge Patricia Millett said seemed to concur during oral arguments at the D.C. Circuit this week. "Nazis got better treatment under the Alien Enemies Act than what has happened here," she said. "They had hearing boards before they were removed."

'
"The White House has said the Venezuelans removed to El Salvador belonged to Tren de Aragua, a criminal organization designated by the Trump administration as a foreign terrorist group. But the administration has provided little evidence to back those claims.

In fact, the administration has conceded in court documents that many of the people on these flights to El Salvador didn't have criminal records in the U.S.

But it says that "the lack of specific information about each individual actually highlights the risk they pose."

Not America.

Running scared already?

What a shocker!

Fishpus' Hero picked a drunken woman abuser and Fox Host to lead the Military, and he coulda easily gotten someone in our uniform killed this week.

One is either for this ape, or agin' him.

Otherwise, one is just some wiseass with the intellectual and moral depth of a boar hog (and a strikingly similar physical appearance!), who prefers believing he, 'owned hisself a lib" to speaking out against rwing Fascism in his country.

Pretty funny really...

when the Leader of your Party (and your Cult) is a convicted criminal, an infamous liar, an adjudicated rapist, and according to the sworn testimony of dozens of his own hand-picked Aides, a traitor to his country...

... and then you have the gall to whine about someone in the other Party?

Funnier or Stupider? Both, most likely.

Social Security operates with an Admin cost of less than 1 percent of it's Budget.

And does so with antiqueted tech.

This is all about making it so ineffective that it can be Privatized.

Just think of your SS brought to you by Tesla.

Wonder what Scott would be saying had the Signal meeting been intercepted and Military lives lost in the attack?

Oh, yeah... Biden's Fault. Got it.

Obviously.

- Generally cover bands suck

This one doesn't, which is one reason it's interesting.

World in Changes - Dave Mason | The Midnight Special

"He signed an executive order putting Vice President JD Vance in charge of an effort to "remove improper ideology" from the Smithsonian Institution, including its museums, education and research centers and the National Zoo.

Trump's order specifically names the National Museum of African American History and Culture and the Women's History Museum, which is in development.

"Museums in our Nation's capital should be places where individuals go to learn " not to be subjected to ideological indoctrination or divisive narratives that distort our shared history," the order said.

Representatives for the Smithsonian did not immediately respond to an emailed request for comment."

Somewhere Hitler and Goebbels are high-fiving.

That was the interesting thing about this album... Jon Anderson still sounds great, and the Band Geeks are an excellent band no matter who they are playing with.

Some old acts you couldn't pay me to go see; they should have shut it down a long time ago.... like the Stones, for instance.

But this was actually refreshing.

Even some Republicans are noticing.... not Scott, of course:

"Officials agree national security adviser Mike Waltz, who accidentally invited a journalist to a group chat with senior leaders, could more easily take the fall for a scandal that has embarrassed the administration " which may end up sparing Hegseth his job.

But Republican hawks, Pentagon officials and even some inside the White House now believe Hegseth also messed up by sending likely classified details from his phone. And that has the potential to undermine his credibility in the administration.

Because Trump clearly likes and has publicly exonerated Hegseth, "you're not going to hear a huge public outcry," said a senior GOP official on Capitol Hill who is close to the White House.

"But, privately, there is a lot of concern about his judgment, more than with Waltz."
