You know the republicans were saying that president should have some sort of test; well why not just extend it to some sort of competency test for all people in congress. Of course given that most of them would fail i doubt it would get far.

But facts don't change what I said. In order to adjust out of an altered reality back to reality you have to be aware you are delusional. The people you speak of think they understand everything. Their reality of how they act isn't out of seeing they know fuck all. It can be understood, instead, in my opinion at least, from perceiving they think they know all. If you believe that government has failed you, you will act out accordingly. Doesn't matter if it actually failed or not. It's like a doctor who says you have a cold when you came to see him is for treatment. And nothing will fix a person who does not want to be cured. What know-it-all is seeking treatment in the first place.
 
Trump looked half dead today and Musk is high as a kite and doesn’t sleep. Fantastic duo to steer the ship of state.

President Musk addresses the nation from behind the resolute desk in the oval office.

So that happened today....
Elon's puppet isn't looking too good, or too healthy. Might want to swap Trump out with the replacement model. JD Vance would look much more attentive and supportive as his master pulls the strings.

I like this comment:

Even Saturday Night Live would consider this too cringe to air.

Reporter: You said an example of fraud that you have cited was $50 million of condoms was sent to Gaza but after a fact-check apparently it was Gaza in Mozambique meant to protect them against HIV.

Musk: First of all, some of the things I say will be incorrect

The Regime Supreme Leaders are so humble for admitting their mistakes!
 
Trump rhetoric and policies producing expected results.

Explains why he was moaning at the Fed to cut rates again. They are not going to and might not this year at all.

Next up, push to fire Powell. Or, maybe even an outright extra-legal dismissal.

Courts are gonna be even more packed with legal challenges to all the wrongful termination type cases.

Trump might move to end Fed independence but it's not going to generate the results he wants. Probably the opposite.

Can't imagine the markets would react too well to that attempt. Although it would be fun to watch Dimon try to wiggle around in any answers he would give.

Doubtful. Upset the apple cart too much and the market will crash. The Fed must appear to be independent even if the market constantly brow beats it since 2008.

Trump's desire to see "line go up not down" is basically the only thing keeping him from doing it. The question is if that maintains as inflation keeps bumping up and the markets are basically treading water out of uncertainty (caused by him personally).
