There does seem to be potential signs that like how he sabotaged Bannon by appointing clowns and going off script, that he’s already doing the same to the Project 25 guys

I guess there's some positives there if he's putting clowns in all the top positions, in that his government might (again) be too incompetent to do that much damage. But it's not something I'd bet on. That's about all I can come up with too. It's likely to be funny to watch from the sidelines.

I don’t what scope there is in the American system for this to happen but it feels like it could all go a little Liz Truss

I'm no longer stressed about it all. It's gone so OTT now that it's just become a comedy sketch that I've just stopped caring about.
I do wish the BBC front page wasn't constantly covered by pictures of Trump though.

All it will take is for someone, a journalist, to make some remark about 'President Musk'. And it'll be brushed off at the time. But a few days later? "We are now entirely dedicated to oil and gas". That's all it will take.

It's like he's just picked the names that have come up on Fox News recently. It's like me picking a fantasy football team. It does seem laughably easy to get a position of power from him by just fellating him. Then give it a while and it'll be "I never hired them, they were forced on me". FTFY

I guess MTG can continue to be a Space Cadet (Jewish lasers etc) with the Space Force. Boebert can head up some kind of force that deals with the sea and what's in it. They could have boats and submarines and everything! Something like this should really have existed already. Oh well, Sea Force it is.

That is the best news I’ve heard for what feels like an age. Brilliant. And The Onion’s story about the purchase is similarly brilliant.

I assume it's already been mentioned, but: Came out of my bubble for a moment and first thing I see see is Matt Gaetz is Trump's pick for AG. Nope. Back in the bubble.

It's also incredible how everyone has to kiss the ring, no matter the position, lest they be hooked out on their arse. Everyone is just getting wheeled out to declare, without hestiation what a fantastic job he is doing.

NYT story is paywalled but this is how it starts... Elon Musk Met With Iran’s U.N. Ambassador, Iranian Officials Say
The tech billionaire, a top adviser to President-elect Donald J. Trump, was reported to have discussed ways to defuse tensions between Iran and the United States.

Going to be interesting as to how Trump will handle recognising Russia’s claim over eastern Ukraine.
“I’m going to go ahead and say… I don’t care. I’m bored. If Russia wants it, they can have it. Enjoy. Have all of Ukraine. Have your whole empire back. Not our problem. China sending us left wing hurricanes is a problem. We should probably get those pizzagate guys we made up too.”

Here's hoping that a combination of RFK in health and the no-wash hands man means they all die from norovirus this winter.
