I'd expect them to introduce friction and confusion amongst allies, major trading partners, and at home, degrade and dismantle major institutions like in the FBI, CIA, and NIH so they cannot get a see what is going on, take a foreign policy stance regarding Ukraine that is in Russia's favor, further exacerbate domestic issues to distract and pin the people against each other, and pin more blame to groups other than Russia like Mexico and China.
That way, Russia can move and act more freely without the US knowing or even being able to do anything and the US will have lost their capacity to function for years-decades at best.
We're ripe for a massive increase in corruption because key groups with oversight capabilities are being done away with. FBI are being degraded, so we won't even know let alone measure what is going on. NIH is being degraded, so we are losing our key health surveillance and research infrastructure to address chronic illnesses and new infectious disease we know are coming our way. Musk even took aim at major US defense programs like the F35, which we know is accumulating strong evidence of its effectiveness as Allied countries have shown, so the military may well be degraded too on top of things.
Russian agent or simply corrupt and unhinged (why not both?), the Trump administration is in the process of doing, and has done, more damage to us than our adversaries could do alone.
The question of "Is he a Russian asset or not?" doesn't matter if the outcome is the same. Putin is probably building more troll farms as we speak.
They would probably start dismantling the government agencies that are investigating them.
And maybe slip up and give a Nazi salute during the inauguration
Gestures around generally
Yup. It's happening now, just look around.
Although I'd argue that Trump is too stupid to be a "secret agent." He's just a fricking useful idiot for them.
I assume Musk bought the pee tapes from Putin and that's why Musk is now holding press conferences in the Oval Office.
They still think the pee tapes are a thing.
Why can't libs recognize Russia as the irrelevant backwater that it is?

I watched a 40+ minute video of Grubby breaking down the entire thing, and Grubby was pretty clear about Yamato having Sara's death on his hands, because the tank really didn't deserve to be alive in a trade off like that, after such a terrible entry and pull in an instance as dangerous as this one. He also made it clear that Pirate likely would have been more amenable to help if Yamato wasn't being so hostile and confused about why Pirate was running after being told to. Personally, I believe that if Yamato had just kept his arm in his mouth and let Ozy call, Pirate wouldn't have been on the defensive and would have turned around to help at that last corner, where there was no longer any danger of more butt pulls.As it stands though, Yamato, who was spasming and making confused calls overtop of Ozy while he stood safely in Vanish range, convinced Sara to sacrifice himself for the tank who made the bad pull, and reinforced Pirate's uncooperative attitude.

INTRO:
Greetings Dramatards
Yesterday on my father's farm, while we were busy vaccinating cows, by injecting medicine directly into their eyelids and eyeballs, I then had a moment to read an Afrikaans article about Elon Musk's incredible rise in stature, where he had managed to make powerful friends with Trump, and had managed to secure great power and influence by becoming the head of a newly created Department of Efficiency in USA - a newly created organization, which would endeavor during Trump's tenure to investigate Federal spending, and cut bloated or mismanaged funds by the American Nation State.
Supposedly, this was because of Elon's cost-cutting measures which he had done, when he decimated Twatter's bloated workforce by something like 50% in the 1st week, and eventually by 80% overall by the end of the year he bought it. His appointment has been met with positivity by Magatards and the crowds, with the belief that he would endeavour to reduce the annual budget - and he had even made a campaign promise to slash the Colossal yank annual spending of 6 Trillion$, by 2 Trillion$ - video of which has been making rounds
When doubts had been raised by other rightoids of the feasibility of this grand feat, or the reliability of Elon, Magatards had just shouted them down
I'm here to explain why I believe Elon is a horrifying appointment
AMERICAN RIGHTWINGERS MISS THE DANGER OF MUSK:
The Afrikaans article was from a local Economist short paper and they like my own, have their biases to Rightwing type views. While the majority of criticism against Elon has been my lefties, communists and welfare leeches, which poisons the conversation about this significant event. Commies despise Elon for his Libertarian standing, and the fact that Billionares even exist as a concept - so the loudest people whom had opposed this announcement on Twatter had been fricking commies afraid Elon would slash their Neetbux
instead of any policy or ethics criticism - which further poisoned the well of this discussion.
Now pissing off leftoids
is always a GOOOOOD THING!
But many other rightwingers, like Patrick Boyle - who's a Libertarian Mick
have been criticizing Elon hard for his business acumen, his professional and public behaviour and his staggering corruption. And we'll get to that corruption.
The article I read went to such an extreme, as to calling Elon Musk's appointment, the equivalent of a Gupta appointment.
https://rdrama.net/post/162984/marseyflagsouthafrica-south-african-theme-park-racism
Basically the context is that during the infamously corrupt Safrican president Jacob Zuma's 10 years in office, he had esentiallly sold the very grounds beneath the feet of south africans, to the criminal Indian Gupta family, by giving them nationscale nepotistic appointments to their companies via tenders - and allowing the Guptas to pilfer the national resources of the country - in what was termed State Capture.
Elon Musk has similar degrees of monstrous conflicts of interest.
FEASIBILITY OF MUSK'S CAMPAIGN PROMISES:
Now there are a great of inefficiency which Musk can tackle
https://fiscaldata.treasury.gov/americas-finance-guide/federal-spending/
Chances are even that it's even feasible that Musk and Trump could cut the annual 7.5 Trillion Budget by as much as 1 Trillion per year, by cutting off all of the Governmental bloat - like the top heavy Educational boards of urban schools filled with parasites, or in the very least make the Pentagon to a national audit see all the various black holes in which yank Federal funding are disappearing into (an audit alone would make Musk's new department worth it alone)
The issue is not the feasibility or the degree of feasibility of Musk curbing Government spending, but that there are phenomenal, PHENOMINAL conflicts of interest!
ARTICLES EXPLORING DEVIOUS CONFLICTS OF INTEREST:
A New York article written 3 weeks ago goes into how much US Tax dollars have been paying to various tenders obtained by companies owned by Musk's corporate conglomerates.
https://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/20/us/politics/elon-musk-federal-agencies-contracts.html
The obvious answer would be SpaceX, Musk's space ship building organization, which has worked with, and in may ways supplanted NASA as the premier Space Rocket launching hub in the Western World - due to the fact that SpaceX has been able to organize itself in such a way as to superiorly run entity, and drive space related projects cheaper and with greater skill than the floundering modern NASA.
This world-famous and generally positively viewed symbiotic relationship, by both sides of the aisle in burgerland, between NASA and SpaceX, has been very VERY lucrative for Musk. However NASA is just one fraction of the government tenders SpaceX receives, since the Burgerland Department of Defense has come to rely on SpaceX the company, to launch all of its new military-related satellites!!
The non-space related shit in honestly not that many, but his influence on other shit, like the department of transportation is wild.
But much much more concerning that all of these tenders for !Burgers, is that over the past 10 years, Mush has been fricking embroiled in no less than TWENTY
investigations from USA government oversight and Safety-Inspection organizations!!!!!
And these aren't just junk
no-nothing investigations, they have large impact on the wider industries they influence in which Musk's various conglomerate companies are a part of.
Example:
=====(from NYT article)
His entanglements with federal regulators are also numerous and adversarial. His companies have been targeted in at least 20 recent investigations or reviews, including over the safety of his Tesla cars and the environmental damage caused by his rockets.
But he has thrown his fortune and power behind former President Donald J. Trump and, in return, Mr. Trump has vowed to make Mr. Musk head of a new "government efficiency commission" with the power to recommend wide-ranging cuts at federal agencies and changes to federal rules.
That would essentially give the world's richest man and a major government contractor the power to regulate the regulators who hold sway over his companies, amounting to a potentially enormous conflict of interest.
........multipronged business arrangements with the federal government, as well as the violations, fines, consent decrees and other inquiries federal agencies have ordered against his companies. Together, they show a deep web of relationships: Instead of entering this new role as a neutral observer, Mr. Musk would be passing judgment on his own customers and regulators.
Already, Mr. Musk has discussed how he would use the new position to help his own companies.
He has questioned a rule that required SpaceX to obtain a permit for discharging large amounts of potentially polluted water
from its launchpad in Texas. He also said that limiting this kind of oversight could help SpaceX reach Mars sooner — "so long as it is not smothered by bureaucracy," he wrote on X, his social-media platform. "The Department of Government Efficiency is the only path to extending life beyond Earth."
======
........But the Federal Aviation Administration held up this most recent test launch for weeks, in part because of questions about harm SpaceX has caused to wildlife near its Texas launch site, a delay that infuriated Mr. Musk.
Last month, the F.A.A. started the process to fine SpaceX $633,009 for disregarding license requirements related to two of its Florida launches last year that may have compromised safety, the agency said.
This was a shift for the F.A.A., which in past instances had not imposed fines when SpaceX ignored the agency's direct orders. Marc Nichols, the F.A.A.'s chief counsel, said in a statement last month that "failure of a company to comply with the safety requirements will result in consequences."
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened five investigations of Tesla, including for complaints of unexpected braking, loss of steering control and crashes while cars were in "self-driving" mode.
Tesla has tried to block at least two rulings from the National Labor Relations Board, including one punishing Mr. Musk for tweeting that factory workers would lose stock options if they joined a union.
=======
Mr. Musk in recent years has particularly attacked the Securities and Exchange Commission, which in 2018 charged him with securities fraud for a series of false and misleading tweets related to taking Tesla private. Mr. Musk had posted on Twitter that he had planned to take the company private at $420 a share, and that he had "funding secured" for a transaction. As part of a later settlement with the S.E.C., he stepped down as Tesla's chairman and Tesla paid a $20 million fine.
In a 2022 TED Talk, Mr. Musk lambasted regulators, calling them "bastards."
=====(end NYT Quote)
As you guys can see our turbo neurodivergent has been every bit the morally bankrupt billionare as you would expect.
https://www.latimes.com/business/story/2024-11-14/elon-musk-conflicts-of-interest
=====(from LA times article)
Tesla:
Trump's policies could reduce the sales of electric vehicles, but with Musk's influence, his administration's policies could boost Tesla — though not with federal funding.
For example, Trump, who tempered criticism of electric vehicles after Musk backed him, might end a $7,500 tax credit for electric vehicles. That would hurt Tesla's unprofitable rivals that rely more on the tax credits to lure customers.
This year, Tesla received at least $2.8 million from the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation through a federally funded program to deploy EV charging stations.
From 2022 to 2024, Tesla and its subsidiaries were awarded at least $631,800 in federal contracts mainly to provide vehicles for the U.S. embassies in Singapore, Iceland and Thailand, the data showed.
The Boring Co.:
Fed up with Los Angeles traffic, Elon Musk launched The Boring Co. with two tweets in 2016, promising "to build a tunnel boring machine and just start digging."
However, at Trump's urging, congressional representatives could earmark local transportation projects to the benefit of Boring Co.
=====(end LA Times quote)
SUPER PACS:
Point is his new political influence would give him the capacity to disrupt investigations into his companies, by Health-and-Safety departments and regulators, or worse and most likely enable him to inject bias into the national procurement procedures, to net tenders for only his conglomerate of companies.
Now in the past, staggering corruption has existed. Yanks have appointed business tycoons into ministerial levels of power, or bought the Departments of regulators through influential lobbying by corrupt industry political interests, often through obscuring disguise called SUPERPACS
https://www.opensecrets.org/political-action-committees-pacs/super-pacs/2024
Like fossil-fuel industries, like coal-mining or offshore-oil-drilling conglomerates to bribe politicians in congress, senate or Presidential admin, to cut regulations in their favor. (Must has also done this for Trump BTW )
https://apnews.com/article/elon-musk-america-pac-trump-d248547966bf9c6daf6f5d332bc4be66
But often these corrupt businessmen would be separated by a degree of control, by the corrupt politicians they aimed to control or influence - Musk would have not even ONE degree of such separation, and likely no fricking oversight.
MUSK'S VARIOUS BUSNINESS INTEREST'S SOAR IN VALUE ON STOCK MARKET:
The corruption is SO flagrant that investors on the stock market have gone crazy in investing on in his various businesses, out of the sheer EXPECTATION that Musk will now use his considerable influence and political position to favor his corporate conglomerates!!
MUSK IS A GEOPOLITICAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST:
Other geopolitical commentators had also mentioned that Musk is by sheer virtue of his Chinese and Russian connections, an astronomical military risk.
https://apnews.com/article/spacex-ukraine-starlink-russia-air-force-fde93d9a69d7dbd1326022ecfdbc53c2
Our boi had on various occasions cut off internet access for Ukraine forces, as they had utilized Starlink in the underdeveloped internet-infrastructure of Hohol-land, which had further degraded during the war, through constant missile barrages on Ukrainian civilian areas. Starlink internet was invaluable to guide GPS areal and naval missiles, as well as connect commercial drones to drop grenades unto enemy trenches
====(from AP article)
SpaceX founder Elon Musk's refusal to allow Ukraine to use Starlink internet services to launch a surprise attack on Russian forces in Crimea last September has raised questions as to whether the U.S. military needs to be more explicit in future contracts that services or products it purchases could be used in war, Air Force Secretary Frank Kendall said Monday.
Excerpts of a new biography of Musk published by The Washington Post last week revealed that the Ukrainians in September 2022 had asked for the Starlink support to attack Russian naval vessels based at the Crimean port of Sevastopol. Musk had refused due to concerns that Russia would launch a nuclear attack in response.
However, in the months since, the U.S. military has funded and officially contracted with Starlink for continued support. The Pentagon has not disclosed the terms or cost of that contract, citing operational security.
But the Pentagon is reliant on SpaceX for far more than the Ukraine response, and the uncertainty that Musk or any other commercial vendor could refuse to provide services in a future conflict has led space systems military planners to reconsider what needs to be explicitly laid out in future agreements
=====(end AP quote)
https://www.nytimes.com/2023/09/08/world/europe/elon-musk-starlink-ukraine.html
Even if Musk's pro-Putler tendencies weren't such a dangerous hot-point in the Ukraine-Russia conflict, the sheer fact that a USA-based private-enterprise would balk in the support of USA allies, out of fear of commercial retaliation of USA enemies, laid a lot of concern for Burgerland military leaders.
Then there is China, which in my opinion, and many geopolitical analysts, is a substantially LARGER threat, in terms of making Musk a cabinet weakness!!
Musk has substantial parts of his collective wealth tied to Chinese Factories:
====(FROM scmp)
Elon Musk's involvement in the incoming Donald Trump administration is drawing scrutiny over possible conflicts of interests, with a senator warning that the Tesla and SpaceX CEO's business ties with China could jeopardise US national security.
Tesla manufactures half of its vehicles in China, which also accounts for one-third of its sales, while the US Defence Department and other government agencies are increasingly reliant on SpaceX.
Musk's close business ties with China and some of its most senior officials, including Premier Li Qiang, have prompted reports that he could be considered by Beijing as a backchannel to Trump, especially in the early days of the transition period.
"It's a very, very difficult position for Mr Musk to be in," said Fish, adding that Beijing "loves to use corporate leverage" over US companies and individuals to advance its national security interests.
"Frankly, I don't know how Mr Musk can balance the interests he has with the US government, with Tesla and with SpaceX at the same time. It's very, very challenging," he said.
====(end scmp article)
Meaning China could literally threaten Musk with actual bankruptcy (for Tesla), if they try to put the squeeze on him to get him to do something for them, or to threaten Musk directly, if they want to hurt USA directly - like saying if USA provides some stuff for Taiwan, like Starlink antennas - they would just go straight to turbo cuck Musk!
Anyways that's all i have to talk about. Chances are that cutting the bloated yank Budget is entirely feasible - but I personally believe Musk is at all the appropriate candidate for such an astronomically difficult undertaking, despite the vast popularity he enjoys from Libertarians, rightoids and Magatards
Must is such an extremely bad fit for his position, that I think many americans have genuinely missed his obvious and extreme conflicts of interest, and how the cultural-wars and identity politics of Kamala and shitlibs have obfuscated such possible future
Gupta tiers of corruption!!!
Like i hate commies as well, and i enjoy Musk dunking on filthy shitlibs, but that sure as shit doesn't garantee he'll be a force for good for Burgerland
