Musk’s unparalleled online reach on X has given him a powerful tool to attack individuals who criticize DOGE.

First, Musk retweeted a post on X noting that the “blind director of watchdog group funded by George Soros testifies that he does not see widespread evidence of government waste” and added two laughing/crying emojis. The tweet garnered more than 21 million views, and sparked dozens of hateful messages to Hedtler-Gaudette’s account.

“He couldn’t see s--- … perfect excuse for being unable to perform your job,” one poster said. “The dei blind guy can’t see fraud. U can’t make up this garbage,” another wrote. One person even called for posters to surface Hedtler-Gaudette’s bank account.

Last week, he amplified baseless claims about the judge who overturned Trump’s funding freeze on federal grants that named his government employee daughter. Musk has called for the dismissal of journalists who have written about DOGE, calling their actions “possibly criminal.”

Republicans to cowardly to call this behavior wrong. they actually think they are holding Musks leash. LOL
I have not heard the Musk version of this, if there is one. But, from what you've posted, it doesn't move me enough to really care in the grand political schemes of legislation that uphold or destroy the constitutional integrity of our system of government. It does appear, however, to be well below the high standard set by Democrats . . . so I'll go with the flow and say that his behavior is wrong. Sort of. Certainly not befitting of the constantly high quality vective that gushes daily from the lips of Democrats.

Ah, Musk . . . if only you were perfect . . . sort of like Biden, or Harris, or Schumer . . . et al.

So what did Trump do in his first term to fix the above?


I have not heard the Musk version of this … nice cop out

How about this one

Hegseth says Biden’s IRS targeted him for a#^&‘sham’ audit
The defense secretary posted an undated IRS notice on social media. He offered no evidence that it was politically motivated.


Yep, conveniently after musk gets access to the IRS database.. telegraph in the future
