Musk met with the Un Ambassdor of Iran today. That seems totally normal, right?

As a researcher who relies on federal funding to advance science and therapies, RFK leading for more than 6 months would probably ensure that we fall decades behind China and other countries in science.

As mixed as I am on some Trump nominees, I'm very happy to see former Congressman Doug Collins (GA) picked to be Secretary of Veterans Affairs.

A guy who is probably a little too kind/gentle/goodhearted to be in politics, I can't imagine anyone who will put more of their heart into that job nor put more effort into it.

Thune now saying recess appointments are a possibility. They are all going to serve King Trump in whatever ways please him.

RainMaker · Yesterday, 06:59 PM

I mean I'm sure it'll be a disaster but the current head of HHS has no medical experience either and was allowing kids to be used as slave labor. So the floor was pretty low already.

Trump selects his personal attorney, Todd Blanche, to be deputy AG.

Just in case Gaetz gets any ideas... or into another minor's pants.

Does anyone remember Nestor or was he memory holed into the ether?

I'm trying to come up with analog left-wing nominees to mirror Trump's in a mirror universe where, I dunno, Susan Sarandon won the Presidency.

Defense: Jane Fonda
State: Ilhan Omar
HHS: Mark Cuban (actually, no, this would be a good appointment), Travis Kelce
AG: AOC
U.N.: Ayanna Pressley
NSA: Jamie Raskin
DHS: J.B. Pritzker
National Intelligence: Adam Kinzinger
Ambassador to Israel: Pramila Jayapal
DOGE: Oprah & The Zuck

Brian Swartz · Yesterday, 08:38 PM

Those are too respectable.

Not valid without Soros on there.

RainMaker · Yesterday, 08:46 PM

Sorry but you're going to need to find a pedophile to fill that AG role to balance it. Is Jared Fogle a Democrat? What about Sandusky?

He would be more appropriate equivalent for Ambassador to Israel.

RainMaker · Yesterday, 08:57 PM

Kind of curious how much rope they give RFK Jr. He's been loudly against factory farming practices and meat production. I can't imagine the people who voted Trump would be all that pleased seeing burgers and steaks double on price but who knows.

I'm anxious to find out what spots that Hulk Hogan and Vince McMahon will be given in Trump's party.

President-elect Trump on Elon Musk: "He likes this place. I can’t get him out of here!...I'm asking him 'what do you do best?' and we were not able to figure it out."

Trump isn't going to put up with Elon thinking he's really the President.

Atocep · Yesterday, 11:48 PM

It would be amazing if people started referring to Elon as the real president just see Trump explode.

RainMaker · Yesterday, 11:58 PM

I don't know why Elon is doing this but interesting.

New York Times’ @farnazfassihi reports that @elonmusk has met with Iran’s UN ambassador to discuss de-escalating tensions between the US and Iran. There are several reasons why this is a positive and welcomed step.
