Did they mean his concept of a plan?

Isn't the Department of Government Efficiency going to have 2 heads? Doesn't sound very efficient to me.

As predicted:

Trump named Gaetz to cabinet position giving him an excuse to step down as rep, the ethics report can then be withheld since he is no longer a Congressman facing accusations, he then withdrawals from the cabinet position so it doesn't come up in confirmation hearings.

Good job on protecting pedophiles and sex traffickers!

Is that what they meant by "Drain the swamp"?

Is this because he wants to share a bathroom with Sarah McBride? Feels more than a little pervy on his part.

Whew. At least they didn't wait until after the election when it would be too late to have any meaningful impact. /s

The problem with statements like this is that they only ever seem to be made by narcissists who thinks work is only those efforts that directly benefit them. The end of my "work day" is when I start my other job of working for myself. I manage my home, I take care of my garden, I put effort into maintaining or improving my physical and mental well being, I foster and build the relationships in my life that I care about, etc. All of that is work, it's just work that I do for myself and don't get a paycheck for.

Personally, I consider family to be a social group more than a biological relationship. I have relatives that I've never met in my adult life that I don't consider family. Conversely, there are people I consider family that were brought into my life through marriage, adoption, and close friendships.

The big ones for me were joint pains, chronic headaches, and cramping that made me feel like I needed to take a painful crap. For some strange reason, that last one only occur in the middle of the night and it would last for a good hour or so.

Drink water.

So many odd physical conditions ended up being the result of dehydration and went away once I started drinking water throughout my day. I was in my 30s when I learned that one.

So true. If you are lacking knowledge on a topic, asking questions is always the best approach.

None.

If you know something to be false and try to pass it off as truth, that is lying. It doesn't matter how you phrase it or try to hide behind symantics like "I'm just asking questions" or "it's just a hypothetical".

That being said, it does not mean that you cannot contribute to a conversations if you are not an authority on a subject. If you are not sure or cannot recall a credible source for your information you can preface your comment with something like "I never confirmed the validity of this, so I may be completely wrong, but...".

I, for one, am shocked. Shocked I tell you.

Who could have guessed Trump would appoint somebody who doesn't recognize the victims of genocide as real people? It's not like Trump called pro-Palestinians protestor "pro-Hamas thugs" and "jihad sympathizers" or said "I will give Israel the support that it needs to win but I do want them to win fast" or called attempts by Biden to negotiate a cease fire an attempt to "tie Israel's hand behind its back".

How could anybody have known? By looking at how he handled conflicts in the area during his first administration? What are we? A nation of nerds that try to make educated decisions about our political leaders?

I can't stop staring at the dent he made in the hood of that car. 🙄

The trip on the Floridian will take nearly 48 hours to complete, according to Amtrak.

Coach seats start at just over $100 for the trip, with private rooms available starting at $700.

Who is their target market?

I can't help but feel like that's the point.

At no point did I say "smart", "genius", or "stupid". I said "intelligence", which was your choice of wording, in my rebuttal.

I also made no claim regarding Musk directly. I just pointed out the flaw in your argument that there is a correlation between a person's wealth and their intelligence.

Money ≠ Intelligence and your entire argument seems to be based on this erroneous assumption.

No-one becomes a multi-billionaire due to a lack of intelligence or common sense.

Not "due to", but people all thoroughout history have amassed great wealth despite a lack of intelligence. Especially when they are born into privilege.
