BIG NEWS: Elon is "willing" to join Trump's cabinet



Newsmax reports that Tesla CEO Elon Musk is open to joining the President Trump cabinet if the Donald wins the presidential election in November.

In an interview with Reuters on Monday, the former President was asked about whether he would have Musk in his cabinet or as an adviser. 

"I certainly would, if he would do it, I certainly would. He's a brilliant guy," Mr. Trump said.

And before you could say 'Coo Coo Cah Choo Mrs. Robinson', Musk tweeted on X, "I am willing to serve."

Musk included an AI-generated photo of himself at a podium with the name "Department of Government Efficiency (D.O.G.E.)," a likely reference to the Dogecoin meme cryptocurrency that Musk has long supported.

He and Trump seem to be getting along splendidly of late:



After the July 13 assassination attempt on Trump, Musk backed him for president, and last week held a live-streamed interview with him on X. During that Aug. 12 livestream, which was viewed over a billion times, Musk proposed the idea of a "government efficiency commission" and said he would be "happy to help out" on it. Trump replied, "I'd love it."

However, Musk denied reports that he pledged $45 million a month to a pro-Trump super PAC.

The relationship between Musk and Trump has finally thawed considerably from just two years ago, when Trump called Musk a "[BS] artist" after Musk said he was considering voting for Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R).

Musk at the time responded on X: "It's time for Trump to hang up his hat and sail into the sunset," adding, "Trump would be 82 at end of term, which is too old to be chief executive of anything, let alone the United States of America."

During the Reuters interview, Trump also said he would consider ending the $7,500 tax credit for certain new electric vehicles, which presumably would affect Musk's business as CEO of an electric vehicle company, but Trump's plan makes sense and perhaps Musk agrees.

Joe Biden is President and the nation is all moist and huggy

"Just sign the damn thing, Joe"

Joe Biden is now the 46th President of the United States of America!

The sun is shining, the birds are singing, squirrels are hiding their nuts, flowers are blooming somewhere, and silent farts smell like rose petals. 

My tears flow unabashedly along the cheeks of my face knowing that Joseph Robinette Biden is putting America on course to a 'build back better bigger brighter booming economy.' 

Yes, the lights along the mall at the Lincoln Memorial on Inauguration Day were like giant, loving arms, hugging America, and every executive order that the evil Donald Trump had signed has finally been negated. 

President Biden has already courageously signed 30 executive orders while having no idea of what they are or what their impact will have on the free world. That take balls of steel or perhaps a dose of dementia.

No longer will mediocre male high school and college athletes, who identify as females, have to compete against fellow fellows--they will now be allowed to compete against biological females and boy, will they kick ass and take scholarships and trophies. [Sorry girls.]

Can you spot the transgender "girl" in the photos below?





No longer will we need to get our oil from Canada through the Keystone XL pipeline. Who cares about Canada anyhow? Maple syrup is overrated.

Now we can get oil from our real ally, Saudi Arabia, and have it delivered on boats and then along highways and rails, where it doesn't spill all the time, like it never does with a pipeline.

People on the left believe Biden has a hidden earpiece with a voice telling him what to do: "Salute the Marines." "Wave at the crowd." "Stand up straight." "Flip a smile." "Give 'em a hearty 'C'mon, man.'" "Jill is your wife. Her name is Jill."

If he does, indeed, have an earpiece, then it has to be connected to God almighty, because he isn't Donald Trump and you know I wouldn't lie to you.

As former President Barack Hussein Obama told Biden [and what's with the Robinette? Is he a little bird with a red breast?] when he revealed that he was planning to run for president:  "You don't have to do this, Joe. You really don't."

But he did and now we're stuck.

Howard Schultz to step down to maybe step up in 2020

Howard Schultz, Executive Chairman of the burnt coffee chain known as Starbucks, is stepping down as of June 26, the company confirmed Monday, and there is speculation that he wants to run for president.

Schultz, as you may know, was the guy who oversaw the Seattle coffeehouse chain's global expansion and who made all of the company's employees take racial sensitivity training after one of the chain's managers followed policy by denying use of a toilet to two men who were loitering in the store without buying anything. Unfortunately for the manager, the two men had higher levels of melanin than Caucasians, and Schultz had a cow.

Schultz, who is 64, worked for the pretentious coffee chain for about forty years. He has been the CEO from 1987 to 2000 and did a second stint from 2008 to 2016, when he was replaced by current CEO, Kevin Johnson. He is currently the owner of the NBA's Seattle Supersonics.

"I set out to build a company that my father, a blue-collar worker and World War II veteran, never had a chance to work for," Schultz wrote in a letter to Starbucks employees. "Together we've done that, and so much more, by balancing profitability and social conscience, compassion and rigor, and love and responsibility."

After the announcement, Starbucks' stock took a dive.

Schultz is a huge critic of President Trump and has been rumored to have political aspirations, as is common with narcissists and megalomaniacs.

If elected, Schultz will likely promise a coffee in every pot, but you have to overpay for it, but if you refuse, you can still use the toilet.

If elected, Schultz will capitulate to anyone with more intersectionality 'creds' than him in order to bow to the gods of leftist progressivism.

"I want to be truthful with you without creating more speculative headlines," he told the failing New York Times on Monday. "For some time now, I have been deeply concerned about our country--the growing division at home and our standing in the world [that began its nosedive when Barack Obama led from behind]."

"One of the things I want to do in my next chapter is to figure out if there is a role I can play in giving back" [hint, hint]. "I'm not exactly sure what that means yet."

Yeah, sure.

Starbucks now has more than 28,000 store and public toilet locations across 77 countries. All Schultz asks of store attendees is to not fall asleep on the floor, and flush when they're finished.

If Schultz does indeed run in 2020, his motto will be: "At least I don't say p***y!"

Secret Service agent & Trump hater on paid vacation/leave

Denver -- Kerry O'Grady, the Secret Service agent who used social media to say that she would rather go to jail than take a bullet for President Trump has not been fired. Instead, she has been place on administrative leave with pay, also known as a vacation, while there is an investigation.

In October, O'Grady posted on Facebook "As a public servant for nearly 23 years, I struggle not to violate the Hatch Act. So I keep quiet and skirt the median. To do otherwise can be a criminal offense for those in my position. Despite the fact that I am expected to take a bullet for both sides. But this world has changed and I have changed. And I would take jail time over a bullet or an endorsement for what I believe to be a disaster to this country and the strong and amazing women and minorities who reside here. Hatch Act be damned. I am with Her."

The "Her" O'Grady was referring to is the felon, Hillary Clinton. The Hatch Act she was referring to is a 1939 law barring certain federal employees from engaging in political activity to promote fairness and non-partisanship within the workplace, and the Secret Service falls under that act.

But it isn't only the fact that she engaged in political activity, it's that she is stating clearly that she refuses to protect the presidency of the United States and doesn't seem to be able to separate the office from the person holding that office.

"It was an internal struggle for me but as soon as I put it up, I thought it was not the sentiment that I needed to share because I care very deeply about the mission," she wrote.

Of course, that's nonsense.

If O'Grady really cared "about the mission," the question of Trump vs. Clinton wouldn't even come up. The idea that she would rather go to jail than perform the solemn duty of a Secret Service agent, regardless of whom holds the office of president, is very clear evidence that she would be a questionable agent at best to protect our nation's president.

She's on paid leave, which is understandable based upon the Constitution. But once the investigation is over, and if she is found to have actually said those words, she needs to be fired and replaced with a patriot who would take a bullet for any president of the United States.

I wouldn't let her walk me across Fifth Avenue.
