Republican Sen. Joni Ernst of Iowa appeared on Fox Information Tuesday to whitewash billionaire Elon Musk’s takeover of the federal authorities.
Ernst, whose bona fides embrace voting to verify an alleged rapist as protection secretary and blaming college students for predatory debt practices, was requested whether or not Democratic congressional leaders calling Musk’s seizure of presidency companies was “overreach.”
“It is going to be a very aggressive movement on the part of Republicans, President Trump, and Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency, so the Democrats need to get used to this,” Ernst stated. “We are going to find ways to focus our American taxpayer dollars on the things that they should be spent on, which is the American people and our interests.”
Vice President JD Vance joined the propaganda get together on Tuesday, retweeting Musk’s claims that he’s on the highway to chopping “$700 billion per year” in authorities waste.
“When Elon and the team started I was very supportive but thought the waste and fraud would top out at $250 billion,” Vance wrote. “The real number will end up much higher.”
The propaganda was being pushed in a Home Oversight Committee listening to on Wednesday as properly. Republican Gov. Kim Reynolds of Iowa bent herself right into a pretzel defending Musk.
Democratic Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi of Illinois requested Reynolds to provide her tackle Musk’s threats to shut down funding for Lutheran teams that present neighborhood assist.
“Governor, you don’t believe that the Lutheran church or Lutheran Family Services is a money-laundering operation, correct?” Krishnamoorthi requested.
After a tense alternate, Reynolds cowardly responded that she “can’t speak to that.”
It has taken Musk simply two weeks to violate the rights of thousands and thousands of Individuals whereas having access to thousands and thousands of Individuals’ non-public information. In the meantime, Musk was simply given a “special government employee” designation by Trump that would permit him to maintain his funds non-public.
And at his present clip, it’s doable Musk can have destroyed a lot of our nation’s administrative capacities on the finish of Trump’s 4 years in workplace.
