Another example of how we now have 2 of the inmates running the asylum.

I don't get Scrotus in all of this. He normally loves to be the center of attention and 'Action Man'. More and more he's standing in Musk's shadow. Why? There must be some reason.

We know he is a coward. So any number of things.

Also he is very easily awed by gaudy displays and very susceptible to flattery.

Add all of that up, and I think you would be hard put to find a 4 year old that couldn't manipulate him into doing whatever they wanted.

NY Times is reporting the mango wants new planes pronto and they are looking at ways to deliver them quicker, relaxing security clearance for Boeing workers has been mooted.

Have you seen his robots? They’re actually terrifying and worth looking up on YouTube.

I know it's harsh and cruel. But I really won't have a shred of sympathy for anyone who perishes flying in a Trump approved plane. And I've had a bad feeling about Boeing since the 737MAX losses.

"If it's a Boeing, I ain't going" as they used to say.

Meanwhile I hear Teslas are being recalled due to a steering fault ? They keep pulling to the right. Apparently.

I see the fresh FBI director has told employees to ignore Musks request for "5 truths and a lie". With quite plain words.

"FBI personnel may have received an email from OPM requesting information. The FBI, through the Office of the Director, is in charge of all of our review processes, and will conduct reviews in accordance with FBI procedures. When and if further information is required, we will coordinate the responses. For now, please pause any responses," Patel told his staff in an email, according to an NBC report.

For anyone fluent in CorpSpeak, that is quite a fuck you to the man from Del Bonkers.

(Goes off to revise how the senior Nazis used to shaft each other left right and centre).

Robots and cybertrucks?

Patel (a conspiracy but maniac) stands up to Musk (a ketamine addled maniac) while both purportedly work for Musk (a permatanned maniac)

If I recall correctly (I do) Musks "position" hasn't been confirmed by Trump to the courts

This potentially means Musk could find himself on the receiving end of criminal charges. Which may (or may not be) the Big Idea. Remember how the SA were liquidated as traitors.

“Like other senior White House advisors, Mr. Musk has no actual or formal authority to make government decisions himself. Mr. Musk can only advise the President and communicate the President’s directives,” Joshua Fisher, the director of the White House’s Office of Administration, wrote in the court filing.

It came off in my robot's hand, Guv.

AFD looking to have got about 19% in the election. Is that better or worse than expected? Trying to work out the Musk impact.

Musk pushed their share down.
They did well but not enough to get near government

Some stats here from 2021 up to today.
www.statista.com/statistics/1257178/voting-intention-in-germany/

84% turnout - highest since 1990, the election after reunification

The RNLI effect ?

Meanwhile, some more about that email. Notice how it plays into the agenda the media have been given to minimise criticism.

Similar to shouting about Liberals Bolsheviks for years, and then "discovering" one trying to burn down congress

Not good ... predictions were much better. Thank goodness. Musk and Vance's meddling didn't work.

They should have used BlueSky ....

comments on that post - thick American kid is a cracker

That's what I was hoping would happen in Germany. People have long memories and Trump is giving a display of what they would be voting for.

In all honesty, when push comes to shove, you have to be very far down the rabbit hole to actually vote for what Trump is delivering.

The Linke party (the left party) is doing better than predicted

Yes, I think it's the Trump effect. Trump/Vance put people off.

Government employees have started a website to debunk the attacks on them.

Our mission
We don't work for DOGE. We have always worked for you.
Here, you'll find stories from real government employees: How we save you time and money, how we protect your personal information, and how DOGE's dangerous dismantling of government technology puts you at risk.

Ugh. Didn't pay attention when clicking though and was shocked by the comments. Then realised I was in the X cesspit. Surprised MT is still on there!

They are on BSkyb too, I should've linked from there!
