President Donald Trump - J.D. Vance Administration

[PEPPERJAX]

It would make so much more financial sense to do this and allow front line workers whose jobs can be done from home to continue to work from home. Silly that we didn’t do this two years ago.

A whole bunch of Jack Phukn squat has been done over the last two years.

 

[lawgator1]

the businesses gave him credit for making it possible in the US - both at the event and in prior statements they indicated that the investments could go elsewhere without the proper business environment in the US

it appears to be regulatory and energy concerns they had that Trump has alleviated.

it's okay to give him credit for working with this group rather than against it

That's fine but don't pretend that it would notnhave happened but for Trump. That's just not true.

I could be wrong, but dont believe a state can prosecute a federal official acting on behalf of federal government.

I believe you are correct, generally speaking, but "acting on behalf of the federal government" is a little more refined than that. If they are acting lawfully on behalf of the federal government, and within the scope of the authority, they have protections from state prosecutions. If they act outside their scope of duty, they can be prosecuted.

Overly simplistic example: a. A federal officer on official surveillance gets in a wreck which kills someone. No charges are likely to be brought.
b. A federal officer on official surveillance stops at a bar, gets smashed, and now gets in a drunken wreck that kills someone. Charges are likely to be brought. They might get removed to federal court for trial instead of state court, but it is much more likely the officer gets charged if he/she was outside the scope of duty (surveillance) by getting drunk and causing the wreck/death.

You need to watch the interview with them.

You are going to be a sourpuss on EVERYTHING with him for his entire term arent you?

Just trying to save you from the rotted corpse of your HS Civics teacher, which is trying to coalesce to beat you about the head with a yard stick because you’re ruining her legacy.

Thank you for putting forth the effort.

Did Mr Mayoshi specifically say dollars or we talking yen? That would only be like $100 bucks,

I think he is a right wing nationalist loon - viewing it through that prism.....???????????????

You know Elon was a dyed in the wool democrat, Biden voter until about 2022, right?
Then Biden kicked Tesla out of the EV program and started investigating SpaceX.
Dems pushed him out.
Then Twitter kicked Babylon Bee off and Elon finally red pilled.
Dems have no one to blame but themselves (as usual)

Trump State Department Tells Embassies and Outposts: Fly Stars and Stripes Only—No More Pride or BLM Flags​

Under Biden, government buildings flew Pride and BLM flags alongside Old Glory​

The Trump State Department implemented a landmark "One Flag Policy" policy on Monday, barring U.S. outposts at home and abroad from flying any other flag but the Stars and Stripes. The newly issued order, a copy of which was obtained by the Washington Free Beacon, effectively bans American facilities from displaying flags affiliated with left-wing movements, including the pride and Black Lives Matter flags that flew over U.S. government buildings under Biden.

Any State Department employee who violates the new policy will "face disciplinary action, including termination of employment or contract, or reassignment to their home agency." The only other flags that will be permitted to fly are the Prisoner of War/Missing in Action (POW/MIA) emblem and the Wrongful Detainees Flag.

Definitely a shortcoming of having old people run things.

The federal government probably really does only need about 1/3 of its national office space footprint. A truly merit/performance based hiring and firing system coupled with an emphasis on remote workers serving under more centralized management structure probably actually would reduce a few billion in costs by removing some unnecessary layers of middle management, reducing maintenance, energy, and security costs, and improving productivity by removing poor performers (and opening jobs up to a wider applicant pool, which would benefit localities that people don’t want to move to).

Technology makes this feasible and it could be done without impacting congressionally mandated government functions (which isn’t true of “herr herr just fahr errbody”)

he had to swear allegiance to the Nazis to talk to Trump.

Yup that scheme is going to F US. However, huff is entirely correct about the need for mass immigration. Aging population, with a decline in birth rates, is going to wreck Europe. China too. Elon talks a ton about this. We get a 20 year front row seat to see how they handle this before it comes home to roost here

I won't claim to have the answers, but put forward a few thoughts and encourage others.

I see several problems, foremost being a monopolized, fiat currency underpinned by the American taxpayer who is, in reality, the asset when talking about the 'full faith and credit' of the nation. And through it's dual mandate of full employment and 2% inflationary rate, the banking cartel we term the Federal Reserve issues currency to and indebts us, the asset. While it manipulates the supply to either choke off or stimulate the economy, and creates cycles of boom/bust and wage/savings erosion. For instance, the illusion that "my house is worth 3X what I paid x years ago" while purposely induced inflation and debt spending is eating 37% of your dollar each decade, aside from income and property taxes.

Behind the Fed locomotive engine, is the long cargo-line of our national debt obligations, foremost Medi, Social Security, and pensions that are unfunded (or will be) obligations. We're at about $35T of funded obligations, which has grown to such size we service the interest payments but not principal, but those unfunded obligations may be 10x that amount, $350-$400T. Heck, let's say it's half that. Our 2024 GDP was around $30T, and estimated Fed tax receipts of $5.5T in 2025. We are the organ-grinder's monkey. And we're led to believe deflation is the worst of economic evils.

I think mass migration is stacking the pyramid blocks higher while the foundation is shearing away. To consider the labor supply in a tax revenue-generating vacuum; we're saying ignore the fundamental problem and using a band-aid in a tourniquet application; we'll just bleed-out slower, and eventually no amount of triage will be enough. I've no expectation Europe will have any answers. They're further down this dysfunctional path and more 'democratic', which means fewer tools oriented in constitutional liberty to work with. I'd bet a $ to a dime their solution will higher income taxes, similar to the Nordic countries which are competitive insofar as corporate taxation, but have quite high personal tax rates to support social spending.

I know; TL, DR - I'm glazing over, myself...

Assuming there's some basis of agreement here, what the practical steps down the path? A direct frontal assault on the Federal Reserve will die on the vine, so how do we begin boiling the frog one leg at a time? Perhaps the tax system which is the primary mechanism by which politicians incur corporate generosity and endow wth tax favoritism to engineer society, and has resulted in a smiley-face form of fascism we call corporatism - ?

I don't know that it would not have happened but for Trump, but I do know it did not happen under Biden. That is true.

That's bc Biden was only a puppet and used as such by the woke agenda.

The remote workers will be fine if they now how to use Microsoft teams.

At this rate, I am starting to even wonder if Biden and Obama are happy Trump won with how nice they have been to him on recent occasions. Biden didn't seem that upset about Kamala losing in the scheme of things.
