    Also @Commodore version of democracy is government functions being owned by private capital interests for those with capital to maximize their wealth.

    Fun in the short term for those who get on this new privatization era. It'll feel awesome. You'll see "number go up" and then 5 years later realize you need security details every place you go because of social unrest and riots.

    NASA is now Space X?

    I'm for maintaining and expanding our Space advantages. He who controls the skies controls military dominance. You against this, or would you rather keep the USAID slush fund going? A cynic would say that at least Musk is paying for NASA getting more funding.

    .....jesus christ man.... do you know how to read? Thats NASA awarding the contract to SPACEX... lets not forget the head of NASA was a long time friend of Musk who he helped install. Who cares when your buddy gives you a fat contract right? MAGA is fighting corruption!

    its such a braindead cult. Jesus

    So you're against maintaining space dominance? You aren't nearly as smart as you think you are if you dont want the best space program in the world by far. Did Musk get grants while Biden was POTUS? Of course he did. What you're really mad about is the days of the Dems slush funds are coming to an end. Change is coming brother, can you feel it.

    Like I said, Musk is paying for this several billion times over.

    Nope you would rather waste on the USAID fraud.

    America won't have space dominance. Globalist private capital owners like Elon will have space dominance.

    There is nothing about private capital having patriotic ends. Hence every billionaire venture capitalist realizes they have to outsource cheap labor and become a multinational conglomerate

    You aren't invited.

    The federal government funds SpaceX. In 2024 it received 4 billion dollars. Just 2024.

    Also I'm glad you joined the leftist communist cause to allow Chicom dominance and understand that USAID is just another tool in the toolkit to maintain US hegomony around the globe so we can maximize efficiency in labor and resources extraction from poorer nations.

    The Trumpers really have no bottom they will sink to.

    Literally every president, left or right, has had to deal with the rule of law. Now under emperor Trump, the white house should have absolute, unquestioned power...and of course they are completely OK with it and see no possible issues.

    Biden won by basically the same margin, more of the popular vote, and didn't go around whining about a "mandate of the people" giving him supposed carte blanche.

    If you weren't a coward who ran away because he was about to be investigated for government fraud via DOGE, you could have voted against it

    I dont know why you think you can get underneath my skin just cuz i tend to expose you and make you look like a dumbass routinely. I sold life saving medical equipment to poor rednecks in rural america where nobody else wanted to go. I sold my business at the very peak and now its worth probably half of what I sold it too.

    Its also funny how you accuse me of fraud. I brought the largest Medicare mental health fraud case in the history of Houston to the feds and helped Medicare recoup more than 120 million dollars. Ive done more good for America then your dumbass will ever do.

    Ive helped recoup more money for the US government than any other poster on these forums.

    That election was stolen look at the numbers of all elections before the 2020 election and the 2024 numbers and you will either believe in great anomolies or that the election was stolen.

    Truth is the Dems dont have any power currently in the 3 branches of govt if the GOP stay together and yes Trump needs to get his people in place to carry out what he said he would do on the election trail. Destroy the 4th branch of govt, the bureaucratic/deep state. It's the only branch that the Dems currently control and it's why they will fight against something as logical as fighting against govt waste.

    BTW, what has Trump done to break the law? He appointed Musk to look for govt waste and report his findings back to Trump. That's perfectly legal. If you want to say Musk shouldn't get people's personnel information, he's already got most people's personal information through paypal. The forensic accounting of the federal govt is way overdue.

    BTW, when they tried to kill Trump and failed they made the man feel like god saved him and he's on a mission to expose all that's been wrong with the federal govt for years. See the release of the JFK and soon to be RFK/Epstien files. I wouldn't be surprised if he took down te 3 letter agencies and rebuilt them. Something else that's long overdue IMHO. Shouldn't have tried to kill the man, arrest him on trumped up charges or gone through his wifes underwear drawer. The last thing is what the deep state is going to regret the most. Melania, who is a very low key sensible woman is still pissed off about that, so she's going to be telling him to burn it all to the ground and rebuild it.

    He's just getting started, only 3 weeks in and I'm ready to see what happens on Saturday in the ME.

    I'm looking for protection more than being invited and being #1 in space is the key to being protected. Of course my goal isn't to become a billionaire. My goal is to serve Christ and live a good life/leave something for my family.
