Trump came into office pretending to be a populist and now his Attorney General is demanding that other politicians apologize to Tesla shareholders. Using the Justice Department to protect the corporate interests of your top donor is about the least populist thing you can do.

Correct. But this isn’t a corporate turnaround. This is the United States of America.
I don’t think many people disagree with the need to reduce spending and the deficit. I certainly don’t.
What we don’t know is whose interests the people in charge are acting in.
With a corporate turnaround, everyone knows that all actions are for the benefit of the owner(s)
Who are the owners that are accruing the benefits in this turnaround Christopher ?
And over what time frame ?
And who are those who will be worse off and does anyone care about them ? What challenges will come as a result of moving quickly ?
These are all questions that would be answered in front of a board of directors.
In this case, there are 330m “directors “, most , like me, want to see the country succeed with the “new management “, but they also want some answers to their questions
Isn’t that fair ?
Excuses. Anyone who has done corporate turnarounds knows you have to be aggressive and make tough decisions, then adjust as you move forward. If anything, DOGE has been far too timid. The media hype of "chaos in the government" is the same as when Elon took over Twitter—hot air.

Regarding US activity in Yemen: I recently said to watch for a new military engagement to compensate for the pull back in Ukraine. The Military Industrial Complex demands about $50 billion a year from our government, above and beyond what’s necessary to defend our own country.
The military industrial complex demands about $50 billion per year in war. As soon as we quit spending $50b per year in Afghanistan, we started spending $50b per year in Ukraine. Watch where the next $50b per year goes when we stop sending it to Ukraine. The MIC is always hungry.

Loving and revering Israel is not "a core American value."
Forcing American workers to subsidize Israel -- even though millions of Israelis have a higher standard of living than they do -- is not "a core American value."
Free speech and protest are core American values.
Vast numbers of foreign nationals who support terrorism and reject American values have been awarded visas. Revoking them is a national security imperative.
We must only admit this who embrace the core principles of our civilization.

I have never received worst support from any company as received from @British_Airways over the past several weeks. Hours of calls with horrible agents explaining the same details of my situation, refusal to escalate, and totally ok with stealing $2k from us.
