I'm a donkey. Yes, you are a donkey. So I'll show you how to act a donkey.
Everything is trying to man the same as truth.
Yes, the donkey of the day for Monday, February 24th,
goes to the richest man in the world, Elon Musk.
Now, I don't know who people voted for in 2024.
Okay, some of us voted for Vice President Kamala Harris.
Some people clearly voted for the 47th president
of the United States of America, Donald J. Trump. Some people voted for the Green Party. Some people
wrote in candidates. But I know one person folks didn't vote for, and that
person is the richest man in the world, Elon Musk. But for some reason, Elon
Musk, who was an immigrant from South Africa, for some reason, this man is in
control of how the government spends his money. Not only is he in control of how
the government spends his money, he's the reason that over
12,000 federal workers have been fired as part of the Trump administration's broad
effort to slash the federal workforce of 2.33 million people.
How do you feel knowing that you are a federal worker who voted for Donald J. Trump and in
his first 30 days you're out of a job?
Elections do indeed have consequences and sadly because of a choice you made, you have to live unemployed with those consequences. It's amazing to me how
they are just playing with people's lives though. You can't just cut people's jobs indiscriminately.
Okay. For example, they fired hundreds of employees from the National Nuclear Security
Administration. These are people who oversee the stockpile of nuclear weapons. Okay. And
then they realized, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, we need these people.
Okay, they tried to rehire them because their dismissal could jeopardize national security.
All right?
Elon Musk and the Trump administration also fired employees who worked on the bird flu
response.
Okay?
And they're trying to rehire them as well.
It's a mess.
And I personally don't understand how an administration can say they are America first, but they have
a South African immigrant causing pain to so many Americans.
That is not what they voted for.
But this weekend on X, of course, Elon Musk suggested that workers could lose their jobs
if they didn't respond to an email blast from the Office of Personnel Management asking
for a list of five things they did in the
past week.
I repeat, Elon Musk suggested that workers could lose their jobs if they didn't respond
to an email blast from the Office of Personnel Management asking for a list of five things
they did in the past week.
I can't make this kind of stuff up.
Let's go to NBC News for the report, please.
What did you do last week?
That's the question Elon Musk and his Department of Government
Efficiency team insists all federal workers must answer in an email. Musk
adding on a social media platform X that failure to respond will be taken as a
resignation. Three sources to NBC News. Those emails were already being
received by federal employees Saturday, asking them to send five bullet points of what they accomplished last week, but noting employees should not include
classified information.
The deadline for replying set for Monday at 1159 PM.
Now listen, I have to give credit to Tosie Gabbard and Cash Patel.
Tosie is the U.S. director of national intelligence and Cash Patel. Tosie is the US Director of National Intelligence and Cash Patel
is the new FBI Director and they joined the growing list of department heads who have told
their employees to ignore the request from Elon Musk and Doge because yes why is anyone listening
to him? Okay not just those two individuals though Secretary of State Marco Rubio,
Secretary of Defense Pete Heksef, and Department of Homeland Security Chief Christy
Noem, they've all told employees to disregard, okay, disregard that email because at some
point someone with some sense has to reject the oligarchy.
All right, the billionaires don't run America, working class people do.
And if you are an official in the government, you work for working class people because
trust and believe Americans will remember who caused them pain and there will be backlash at some point not to mention
I believe that someone needs to check Donald Trump's toupee to make sure there isn't one of Elon Musk
Neuralynx devices in there. Okay, something isn't right
All right
Elon has some sort of mind control over Donald Trump and every time Donald Trump is in a press briefing
One simple question should come up. And that question is,
who is the real president of the United States of America?
Every time he's in a press briefing,
when one of y'all get an opportunity to answer,
to ask a question,
y'all should ask that every single time.
Because we know who it is on paper,
but who's really calling the shots?
Elon and Trump are giving record label owner artist vibes. Okay, watching Elon, you know,
stand next to Trump is like watching Birdman stand next to Wayne back in the day. It's like watching
Diddy stand next to Big back in the day. It's like watching Yoh Gaudi and Glorilla now.
No matter how hot the artist is, you can clearly see who's in charge. Now, here's the reason Elon Musk absolutely
deserves this hee haw. Okay, this man said on yesterday that he was just eager to see
who had a pulse and two working neurons amid the claims that some government employees
are barely working or checking their emails. Can you imagine if you worked in government
and you are in charge of things that could put this country's national security at risk?
You are in charge of containing diseases that could kill millions of people
and you have an unelected immigrant from another country playing with you on a weekend?
We have to start putting some things in perspective.
And one thing we need to put in perspective is we are post-America, okay?
We are post-constitution. This isn't about Republican or Democrat.
This is about democracy and no democracy.
And I don't know what the political solution is
to this problem,
because we aren't dealing with the democracy
that we once knew.
And until we, the people, identify and realize
what game is actually being played at our expense,
we will continue to lose.
Please give the oligarch and chief, Elon Musk,
the biggest he-ha. Alright. Well when you mess with the bull, you get the horns.
Wake that ass up.
In the morning.
