Not a serious guy
He’s not even from here. He doesn’t even go to this school.
U.S. DOGE Service leader Elon Musk on Monday called Sen. Mark Kelly (D-Arizona) — a decorated Navy pilot and former NASA astronaut — a traitor in a post on X after the senator visited Ukraine and expressed his support for the country in its war with Russia.
Who’re you calling a traitor you filthy thieving bullying self-enriching toad of a man??? A traitor to what? You? You are not the boss of us and never will be.
Kelly, who flew dozens of combat missions in the Middle East as a Navy pilot and took four NASA missions to space, also told reporters at the Capitol later Monday that Musk is “not a serious guy” and that he “should go back to building rockets.”
“He’s slashed and burned the federal government to make room for a giant tax cut for billionaires like himself,” Kelly said, referring to Musk’s work leading the U.S. DOGE Service. “I’ve sworn an oath to this country, flown in combat, I served in the Navy for 25 years. It appears to me the oath that Elon Musk stands by is the oath of billionaires, to make their lives easier, not the American people, not veterans.”
The oath of white billionaires, the oath of male white billionaires.
Kelly also accused Musk of showing little respect for veterans as Musk has worked to cut government programs and agencies with DOGE, which stands for Department of Government Efficiency, though it is not a Cabinet-level agency. DOGE has fired roughly 6,000 veterans from government jobs, and the Trump administration has announced plans to cut 80,000 jobs from the Department of Veterans Affairs, where military veterans make up about a quarter of the workforce.
I think by “little respect” they mean “brazen callous indifference.”
An excellent question. Who or what is Kelly supposedly betraying? Trump? Musk? Russia? Who is the enemy he is working for? Ukraine? If Ukraine is the enemy, then how can they trust the United States to negotiate anything on their behalf? I know, silly me: they can’t.
As a member of the Armed Services Committee, isn’t Kelly allowed to see for himself the facts on the ground? Or is he supposed to take Trump’s word for what’s happening? Is Vance afraid that Kelly will be taken on a “propaganda tour” that will make his pals the Russians look bad? God knows he’s not going to make Trump & Co. look good, and that’s the problem. Trump has made a Deal, and nobody is supposed to second guess or contradict him. It’s a beautiful deal, a perfect deal, like nobody’s ever seen before. He’s gonna be a PEACEMAKER GODDAMIT, and nobody is going to get in his way. He’s going to let Putin take what he wants and declare “Peace”, even if it’s the peace of the grave.
Oh, now, be fair. I’m sure Betsy DeVos will come in for her share of the tax cuts…
This only further shows how stupid Musk is. His affrontery says absolutely nothing about Kelly.
The RUSA’s only hope of escaping the coming imposition of Martial Law (April 20, 2025 apparently) is that the RUSA military still has sufficient officers and other ranks loyal to the USA who will refuse the orders issued by Comrade Krasnov’s appointments.
When you say “apparently” what do you mean? What is the appearance?
Google doesn’t turn up any relevant meanings for “RUSA” either.
RUSA = Russian United States of America. I think it fits the current dictatorship neatly.
Based on Trump’s earlier EO requesting investigation into imposition of the Insurrection Act in 90 days, and that 90 days expires on April 20th, a number of people are apparently of the opinion the Insurrection Act will be invoked and Martial Law declared on Hitler’s birthday.
Those of us who have studied the rise of Hitler are aware that it took Herr Hitler a mere 90 days to bend the Reichstag to his will.
I’m not saying it’s impossible (because of course it is), but seeing as how my more alarmist podcasts haven’t mentioned it I’m inclined to think it’s BlueAnon type stuff.
RUSA? I’d go with Amerika Oblast …
