Its enlightening to finally see a focus on overspending and an apparent intent on tackling it. That said, Elon & Vivek are no more than advisors with big microphones. They have zero power wrt federal spending and seem to lack basic knowledge on how it actually works.
I'm enjoying the show so far, popcorn refills all around.
You're such a dumbass. Cops that are sadistic morons? You mean the ones that "have enormously difficult and trying jobs that are essential"? Which is it? Derek Chauvin is in prison because a violent, lifelong felon with more than 6 drugs in his system couldn't act like a civilized human being and go to jail like a man. Driving around the city, high as a kite, and passing counterfeit bills. Now he's a hero for the libtard party. Everyone should be thankful he didn't wipe out an entire family in the crosswalk before he was stopped.
Fentanyl Floyd didn't suffocate because you can't cry "I can't breathe" for 45 minutes and suffocate. There was NO physical damage to his anatomy yet we needed a fall guy to keep the race baiting losers at bay. Built a statue for a career criminal that held a gun to the belly of a pregnant woman while his buddies robbed her. What a hero.
That's why YOU lost the election. Your psychobabble about "societal norms" is more diarrhea of the mentally vacuous.
The San Diego City pension crisis was caused by the decision of Mayor Susan Golding and a compliant City Council to shortchange the annual contribution to the pension fund so that the money could be used to finance the 1996 Republican Presidential Nominating Convention in San Diego, thus depleting the fund on the income side. The affected pool of City employees accepted the deal because arrangements were made to improve their pensions in the future, further depleting the fund on the outgo side.
George Floyd’s autopsy report is not new, does not say he died of an overdose
False. Social media users are sharing a page from the 20-page autopsy report that was publicly released by the Hennepin County Medical Examiner’s office in full on June 3, 2020.

Here's the autopsy. And not the one paid for by race baiting Ben Crump and Floyd's family. Read it and weep. You know who doesn't die from being kept on the ground? People that comply with law enforcement. Even experienced, violent criminals that comply, don't kick the shit out of the police car and don't cry "ah cain'tz breeves" before they even get him out of his OWN car. He was a violent, worthless, piece of shit human being who contributed nothing good to society and died because of his own actions.George Floyd’s autopsy report is not new, does not say he died of an overdose

You could be right, but if they shine a light on massive government waste and bureaucracy, maybe they get voters and Congress's attention and there will be a push to do something about it (granted politicians from both sides have their hand in the cookie jar). I'd rather have two successful businessmen, than some politician (aka Gore, who failed when he claimed he was going to do it).
Say one thing about Trump, he has set the bar very high for his administration with his promises. We will see how successful the resistance will be, however, I think it will fail when it comes to immigration. I wouldn't F with Tom Homan. Mind boggling that many Dems want to block the deportation of criminal migrants.
Susan Golding was just another in a long line of bad SD mayors...and she was a family friend.

My concern with E&V is that their lack of knowledge & expertise on Fed spending may end up shining the light in the wrong places, hopefully I'm wrong. They also can't actually do anything as they are purposely not a "department" which would require vetting and conflict of interest statements etc. So they need Congress to act. Hopefully their "noise" will not take focus off the serious stuff.
Hegseth said he's going to tackle the 50% of the defense budget that goes to external companies (MIC), RFK is going to take on big pharma/ag/food/health ... that's about 50% of the budget right there between those two.
I don't think either are wrong to put a large target on all the corporate grifters that espouse capitalism while suckling on government sponsored corporate socialism (effectively). MIC & big pharma/ag/food/health have deep pockets in which many many congress people dwell though (Dem & GOP), so this will get interesting.

How did it go in England with Liz Truss? . . . and how long did she last.
What did you think of Silberman?
One year while volunteering at a Thanksgiving food kitchen, ex-Mayor Maureen O'Connor came to help out on the buffet line. I introduced her to my kids (who were also volunteering (HS public service hours)) as "San Diego's last honest mayor". She laughed.
I only met her post Silberman...my dad probably had an opinion. Never a fan of O'Connor as a mayor, then she went off the rails, obviously she had a serious addiction.
Sorry to hear that
Elon sent a rocket into space and had it return and land on a dime. He can probably figure out Fed spending while on the pot in the morning. But yeah, they only have the power to make recommendations.

Where have you heard that “many Dems want to block deportation of criminal migrants.”?
MAGA got Elon and the Twitter Files, and your side got Liz Cheney and her dad Dick.
