“Not like us” . . . Democrats file suit to prevent Musk from cutting government spending.

Wait – did Trump REALLY flee the Superbowl in disgust because the Eagles were scalping the Chiefs? Um, not really. The president gave a half time interview supporting Musk, then took Air Force One back to the White House. At the same time, Kendrick Lamar was performing his controversial hit “Not like us”. But he was under a court injunction, and couldn’t use the real lyrics. You can't make stuff like this up.
Welcome America’s legal system, 2025. Where you can sue everyone, all the time, as a PR stunt.
I’m not taking sides here. Drake – er, I mean Democrats who are out of power – certainly seem all worked up. And to nullify election results suing everyone in sight is certainly a better option than sending rioters to the US Capitol on January 6th. Wait . . . what? Now democrats are besieging the California state capitol to protest Trump and Musk? Well, Kamala – during her campaign – did keep exhorting her supporters to “Fight like hell. When we fight, we win”.
But still, rioting to prevent the White House minions having read-only access to legitimate government records? This might be construed as suppression of evidence. Are they afraid something might be discovered in those actual records? No wonder Congress can never pass a balanced budget. They’re in fear for their lives.
I don’t expect Trump or Musk will bring us a balanced budget. I do expect democrats to lose most of their 1,000 court suits to keep Republicans from looking at the official government records.
I think spending at the Pentagon, USAID, The Department of Education, at Health and Human Services – EVERY government agency – should be subject the same rules. If we can discover how much a B21 bomber costs ($2 billion each, apparently), then we’re also entitled to know how non-military money is being doled out at home and abroad.
I’m just sayin’ . . .
