I do expect there will be some shooting at the mexican drug cartels. They will shoot first, and it’s really a question of how overwhelming the initial response is.

There are valid reasons for US government agencies to have subscriptions to various reporting entities- especially the Press Secretary, and a few intel departments, but this is over the top.

Schumer who referred to the 5 on Musk’s staff as being “creepy”. Damicrats have not learned a lesson. I will bet many people throughout the world are relieved that the fake media are being taken to task for being on the payroll of the American government. Trump always said they were “fake media”. He knew.

If Politico can't exist without my tax money, then Politico should not exist. In fact, I want my tax money back because I never approved of supporting them in the first place. Misappropriation of We the People's money.

Yes. As Americans, we should be thrilled. We will save money, and our own dollars won’t be sent to enemies, both foreign and domestic, that hate us.

I love this. The louder and more blood-curdling the screams from Leftists are, the more I love it!
