      I’m waiting for them to say it’s all the Democrat’s fault.

      Like those congressperson sex scandals where Fox News used to literally put on screen “William McDiddler (D-Connecticut)” instead of R.

    Elon musk tells republicans (and theworld). He is in no way qualified to run a government department.

    After claiming he is not in control of acts that only happened when his department was formed under him. Within a month.

      I’ve done enough “who’s that Pokemon” to know that the ketamine walrus is elon musk, just based on body shape alone.
