Top 10 Conservative Idiots #17-13: We’re Not Gonna Take It Edition

Ed. Note: Warning, this edition will contain some extremely graphic profanity and some objects may be flying around the set. This may be the edition that gets us canceled. If you are offended by the kind of language that is about to be used, you may back out now quietly. If you want to see where we’re going with this, we may advise you to direct yourself to our edition that we had back when Trump declared victory in 2016, which you can see here: Idiots #2-1. Otherwise, you have been warned.

Welcome back to the Top 10 Conservative Idiots! Yoooooooooooooooooooooo!!! What’s up U-Conn, how you guys doing? Sold us out again! You guys doing fucking good? Great! So where do I begin this week? Oh yeah, easy - fuck you America! There, I said it. I have a long list of “fuck yous” coming, so here it comes: Fuck you Donald Trump. Fuck you JD Vance. Fuck you Vladimir Putin. Fuck you Fox News. Fuck you undecided voters. Fuck you TPUSA. Fuck you Heritage Foundation. Fuck you Federalist Society. Fuck you Leonard Leo. Fuck you MAGA Congress. Fuck you Marjorie Taylor Greene. Fuck you Lauren Boebert. Fuck you Tucker Carlson. Fuck you Kid Rock. Fuck you Ted Nugent. Fuck you Lee Greenwood. Fuck you Steve Bannon. Fuck you MAGA SCOTUS. Fuck you Bernie Moreno. Fuck you Nikki Hayley. Fuck you Neil Gorsuch. Fuck you Amy Comey Barrett. Fuck you Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham, Maria Baritromo, Jesse Watters. Fuck you Clarence and Ginny Thomas. Fuck you Samuel Alito. Fuck you Kristi Noem. Fuck you Elon Musk. Fuck you Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Fuck you Jeff Bezos. Fuck you Patrick Soon Singh. Fuck you Jack Hibbs. Fuck you Viktor Orban.

And if you voted for or support any of these people, then fuck you too. Did I forget anybody? Also fuck you too. Holy shit, am I angry and extremely pissed off about the election. Just fuck… what the fucking hell is wrong with you, America? What the absolute… fuck!!! I am so angry that I don’t even know that I can make it through this edition! Argh! God damn it all to hell. It’s like nothing matters anymore and this country is going full authoritarian fascist whether we want it or we don’t. Oh and if I get too angry or pissed off or feel like destroying something, we’ll be seeing plenty of this graphic:

And RIP rule of law – beginning of time -11/5/2024. You will be very greatly missed. Insane how many fucking stupid ass “law enforcement” officials got duped into supporting this fucking worthless piece of fucking shit. Y’all are fucking useful idiots. Checks and balances too, you will also be missed. By the way, throughout this edition, we will have an F-bomb counter at the bottom of your screen, because I fully intend to break the Wolf Of Wall Street’s world record for the most amount of f-bombs dropped in one program. So far we’re at 63. Think we can make 569? I would place some high odds on it. God fucking damn it. #63. *DING* We are about to get really angry in this piece, and I’m even more pissed off and disillusioned with the United States was after the 2016 election. Just… holy fuck. 64. This is just in the first 10 minutes by the way! Now that I got that off my chest, strap in, because this may be our angriest edition in the entire 8 years of doing this program. OK enough of the intro, we have a lot of idiocy to get to. But first our good friend John Oliver is back and he delves into what Trump’s fucking stupid businesses are going to do now that’s the fucking god damn leader again! Breathe in…

OK, I got to admit we had a much different edition planned this week had Kamala rightfully taken her place. But it didn’t and America had to go and select the fucking asshole again to totally fuck things up and he’s going to do it. And we’re all going to suffer for it. But before we get into it this week, I am going to say that we have this F-Bomb chart with all of the movies that have the most amount of F-Bombs in its’ run. For instance at 173 – that’s the record set by Bad Santa. 200 level – The Big Lebowski. 300 level – Straight Outta Compton. 400 level – Casino. 500 level – Wolf Of Wall Street. And no, we’re not counting that Canadian documentary “Fuck”, OK? Got it? So in the first slot, we have to ask the question – America, what the absolute fuck is wrong with you (1)? And in the second slot, there’s so much about this utter shit show of an election, that we have to ask the question a second time – America, what the fuck is wrong with you (2)? And in the third slot this week – yes, we’re aware that the bizarre MAGA cult that follows Trump to his rallies in the middle of nowhere (3) are becoming even more deranged, violent, and unhinged – so where does it end? We’re about to find out! In the number 4 slot is God King Fuckface himself (4) and we’re going to talk about his stupid fucking “day one” promises – just how bad is it going to get? Well, we’re going to find out! And instead of getting sad, we’re going to instead use a classic hair metal anthem to describe how we feel about this whole thing! And I’m sure the author of said song will approve! In the number 5 slot this week is a new edition of our segment that delves into never-ending corporate greed in “Late Stage Capitalism” (5) and this week, do you enjoy playing Wordle? Yes, our 5 minute escape from reality is being plagued by a strike among the NYT tech team and especially the games department! Yeah, we may have to find alternatives! In the number 6 slot this week, is of course our weekly visit to the Holy Church Of The Top 10 in “Holy Shit” (6), and we’re going to lighten things up and talk about one of the biggest purveyors of misinformation among the Christian right – Lee Greenwood. Yes, the God Bless The USA singer has more than a few demons up his sleeves! At number 7, while Fox News constantly railed about Kamala as the “border czar”, guess who her replacement is? Tom Homan, who we’re profiling in a new “This Fucking Guy”, and he’s a full blown James Bond villain! At number 8 is our weekly venture into the never-ending world of online tin foil hat nuttery in Conspiracy Corner (8) and this week, why is RFK Jr saying that he’s going to remove fluoride from the water supply? And just how does he plan to do this? It’s all a big bunch of grade A bullshit! In the number 9 (NEIN!!) slot this week, let’s lighten things up with a People Are Dumb (9) because it’s becoming clear how Fuckface got to be president again. Ugh. Finally this week, since Kamala didn’t get elected, we’re changing our Road To White House segment to Road To The Shithouse (10)! And this week… this week we’re going to introduce you to the fucking shitty new position Trump created for his bestie Elon – the Department Of Government Efficiency (10)! WTF! And what happens now? And finally to cap things off, we have some live music for you from our good friends King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard! Buy their new album Flight B741 or you’re no friend of this program! Enjoy! And as always don't forget the key!

[font size="8"]Worst Election In American History
[br] [/font] [br]

FUCK. FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCKING FUCK… THIS COUNTRY IS… FUCKED!!! America, what the fucking hell is fucking wrong with you??? We warned you about the dangers of what a second Trump term would bring. The damage that fucking Project 2025 is going to do. The dangers of his criminally fucking insane plan to mass deport anyone he declares “illegal”. Just FUCK!!! And you voted for this criminal fucking scumbag fucking anyways!!!! Just… fucking… AHH!!! I’m so pissed off at the fucking results of the fucking election, that I’m going to fucking…

OK… breathe in. Are we going to have to do this for the next fucking four years? God damn it. I am beyond pissed as hell. We’re not even going to refer to him by name this week. Instead, we’re just going to call him “Orange Fuckface”. And we’ll be referring to incoming vice president JD Vance by his drag queen nickname – Ashley Furniture. Just when it fucking looked like things were going Kamala’s way… nope, the fucking Fox News and Putin machine fucking wins! Death to your fucking dreams and hopes! And if there’s one thing that we’ve learned, it’s that the fucking polls are fucking bullshit. Though this time around… maybe they weren’t. Maybe they were actually telling the fucking truth for once. And once again, nobody listened. Or did they? Look, we know the 5 stages of grief – denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. Right now we’re in the anger stage and I don’t know if we will ever get past it. But this right now is my therapy. I have to get the anger off my chest. Just… fuck! There’s a serious black cloud hovering over this country right now, and come January 20th, things are going to get a hell of a lot worse. This is the government of, by, and for conspiracy theorists, talk radio hosts, the fucking Heritage Foundation, and Fox fucking News. They own the show now. This is their fucking dream – and everyone else’s fucking nightmare. And by the way, all instances of Trump in this edition are going to be replaced with “Orange Fuckface”. Because we can! So just how fucking bad could things get? Well…

Global efforts to fight climate change stumbled but survived the last time Orange Fuckface was elected president and withdrew the United States from an international climate agreement. Other countries, states, cities and businesses picked up some of the slack.

But numerous experts worry that a second Fuckface term will be more damaging, with the United States withdrawing even further from climate efforts in a way that could cripple future presidents' efforts. With Fuckface, who has dismissed climate change, in charge of the world's leading economy, those experts fear other countries — especially top polluting nation China — could use it as an excuse to ease off their own efforts to curb carbon emissions.

"There's no hope of reaching a safe climate without substantive action from the United States, from China, from Europe," said Stanford University climate scientist Rob Jackson, who chairs the Global Carbon Project, a group of scientists that tracks countries' carbon dioxide emissions, which have been rising globally. He said he's certain the world is shooting past the internationally accepted threshold of limiting warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius since pre-industrial times. That's just a couple tenths of a degree away. Others believe the goal is alive.
https://www.pbs.org/newshour/amp/politics/experts-worry-trumps-second-term-will-cripple-efforts-to-stop-climate-change

So yes, climate change is on the table. But when have you ever trusted Trump to do the right fucking thing? He doesn’t, ever, and that’s why his fans fucking love him for that. And by the way, if you ever need any more proof that Trump doesn’t do the right fucking thing, just wait until he starts appointing cabinet positions and filling them with loyalists and bootlickers. You want to know how we got to 1933 Germany? Well, we’re witnessing it in real time. And trust me – when it comes time for the fucking inauguration, well, god fucking help us! Fuckface isn’t just every bad guy you’ve ever seen, think Emperor Palapatine levels from Star Wars bad. And with fucking one party rule, which trust us, is going to get real fucking bad real fucking quick, he will get everything that he’s promised and then fucking some. So strap in, because we may be in this for the long fucking haul!

Orange Fuckface called on Republican Senators vying for the majority leader position to permit him to appoint temporary cabinet members without Senate approval through recess appointments and demanded they reject any judicial nominations until he takes office.

Complaining that Senate approval takes too long, Trump said anyone seeking the leadership position “must agree to Recess Appointments (in the Senate!)” on Truth Social on Sunday, a tactic that would effectively allow him to place any person in his cabinet without formal Senate approval.

“Sometimes the votes can take two years, or more. This is what they did four years ago, and we cannot let it happen again. We need positions filled IMMEDIATELY!” Trump wrote.

Hours after Trump’s statement, three Senators running for the leadership position endorsed Trump’s idea.

Oh and if you’re looking for someone to blame for this absolutely epic fail of an election, well, there’s plenty of fucking blame to go around. And don’t worry, we’ll save the fucking blame for next week. So there is good news though, there is a statue of Orange Fuckface that’s currently circling the city parks, and recently showed up in Philadelphia. Can we show that? Yup, congratulations, America, you just elected a fucking rapist con artist to the highest office in the fucking land! I hope you’re all fucking happy to see the damage that he’s going to do in one fucking week! And by the way, if you want to see how bad things are going to get before Fuckface takes office again, look no further than fucking Iowa, where Iowa’s LGBT couples are looking to tie the knot before Fuckface takes office.

A local chaplain is helping dozens of same-sex couples across the state tie the knot before President-elect Donald Trump returns to the White House in January due to concerns about marriage equality protections under the new administration.

Des Moines area chaplain Anitta Milloro said they're working with more than 40 couples who want to get married before the president-elect takes office. To assist, they are building a network of wedding resources from people who say they are willing to help couples facing the dilemma of forming a legal union by 2025.

In Iowa, equal marriage became a protected right in 2009, six years before a Supreme Court case legalized it across the United States. However, Milloro said they've spoken with same-sex couples who are concerned those rights may be challenged.

"They believe it can happen because it happened with Roe v Wade," Milloro said. "So how do we take the steps to protect ourselves in light of an administration that's not going to do that for us?"

Yeah BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! Hey look, all you people who were holding up those stupid fucking “WHATEVER FOR TRUMP” signs, hope you’re fucking happy! So the question now is – the voters fucking wanted Fuckface. They fucking chose him. Do we let him go scorched earth or do we try to keep the worst from happening? Because we’ve seen what happens when he goes scorched earth – and we have the fucking evidence to back it up! Yes, because we’ve been doing this fucking show for 8 fucking years now, we’ve seen Fuckface at his absolute worst. And don’t heed anyone’s calls for unity, because this is only just getting started and no, we don’t play nice with fucking fascists over here, not for anyone or any fucking thing. Christopher Titus was right. America lost its’ fucking soul on election night. Fuck.

The good news: Everybody from a triumphant Donald Trump to a vanquished Kamala Harris is talking about national unity.

The bad news: Don't hold your breath.

It is true, and reassuring, that the tumult and denial that followed the 2020 election is nowhere to be seen this time. Vice President Harris conceded hours after the last polls had closed. President Joe Biden called Trump to offer his help with the transition. There are no signs of any serious effort to delay or disrupt the Electoral College count.

There will be no repeat of the Jan. 6, 2021, assault on the Capitol that shocked the world.

"We're going to help our country heal," Trump told exultant supporters at his campaign headquarters in West Palm Beach, Florida, late Tuesday night. On Wednesday afternoon, Harris told her backers, a more subdued crowd gathered at Howard University, that she had called Trump to congratulate him.

[br] [/font] [br]

FUCK. FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCKING FUCK… THIS COUNTRY IS… FUCKED!!! Yeah I know that I’m fucking repeating myself… but… FUCK!!! Argh I am so fucking pissed off about the election. But you know what? For this segment, we’re going to talk about one group that may both be responsible for flipping this country red, while simultaneously responsible for their own demise. We’re now learning that one group may be responsible for this country’s 2024 stupid fucking red wave. That is Latinos For Trump. Yes, Latinos For Trump. Which might as well be Chickens For Colonel Sanders. But we cannot overlook the Fox News misinformation sphere and the absolutely dangerous propaganda that they peddle 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. But here’s the thing we need to realize – if the Dems want to win back voters, it starts with the Latino vote, and they’ve got a right wing propaganda problem brewing. Yes, talk about voting against your best fucking interests.

Orange Fuckface called Latino migrants rapists, murderers, and drug dealers. After one of his final rallies, at which a comedian described Puerto Rico as “a floating island of garbage,” many people, myself included, thought Latinos would decisively turn against him. We were wrong. Exit polls show that 46 percent of Latinos voted for him, and among Latino men, he won 55 percent of the votes—a huge increase from 36 percent in 2020.

Many Americans are baffled. How could Latinos—many of whose family members could be targeted by the mass deportations that the Fuckface team is promising—make this choice? But seeing the results—and hearing from Latino Trump voters—it made perfect sense to me. This was, simply, a vote for capitalism.

American values are especially powerful in groups with large immigrant populations; those values are what draw people here. Though many of America’s earliest immigrants came here seeking relief from famine and poverty, our freedoms—to worship freely, to speak freely—are what we became famous for. The promise was mythologized on the Statue of Liberty: our welcome to the tired, poor, huddled masses, who yearned not to grow filthy rich, but to be free. In the 20th century, immigrants fled religious persecution and political oppression to find in America freedoms that they, and their descendants, cherished and took seriously. I was raised by my grandfather, a Puerto Rican veteran of World War II. We didn’t have a lot of money, but I was taught that our political freedoms and our moral obligation to democracy mattered more.

Yeah seriously… what the fuck is wrong with you? Here we have a group that has been heavily brainwashed by propaganda online and on stations like Fox News. So the democrats may not be the most flag waving Americans to ever America. But you know what? The fucking fanboys don’t control the fucking show. That’s like saying all the Yankees fans are like those fucking douchebags who grabbed Mookie Betts’ glove and assaulted him during Game 4. But of course they’re not like that. But there was a lot of gaslighting in this election cycle and a lot of people who were tricked into voting against their best interests. But this might be the most egregious of all and a huge part of how the election got tipped in favor of Fuckface.

Brian Leija, a 31-year-old small-business owner from Belton, Texas, was not surprised that a growing number of Latino men of his generation voted for Donald Trump for president this year. Leija had voted for the Republican in 2016 and 2020.

Leija’s rationale was simple: He said he has benefited from Trump’s economic policies, especially tax cuts.

“I am a blue-collar worker,” Leija said. “So, tax breaks for small businesses are ideal for what I do.”

For DaSean Gallishaw, a consultant in Fairfax, Virginia, a vote for Trump was rooted in what he saw as Democrats’ rhetoric not matching their actions. “It’s been a very long time since the Democrats ever really kept their promises to what they’re going to do for the minority communities,” he said.

Gallishaw, 25, who is Black, also voted for Trump twice before. This year, he said, he thought the former president’s “minority community outreach really showed up.”
https://apnews.com/article/young-black-latino-men-trump-economy-jobs-9184ca85b1651f06fd555ab2df7982b5

That is a good question! How… who… why… what the actual fuck??? Minority outreach? Have you been paying attention the last 8 fucking years??? Have you not seen all the egregiously shitty things that Fuckface has been saying about minorities? Have you??? Just ahhhhhhhh!!! This kind of stupidity is making my head fucking explode here!

Hey no need for the graphic yet! I’m in control of my anger right now. But how can the Latino population vote for Fuckface when he’s said that mass deportations will be on the table? How can they be so engrained in the fucking propaganda that this can and most definitely will affect them and everyone personally? I just can’t even. But again, this is why we cannot have nice things in this country and it’s because of propaganda.

From Pennsylvania to Florida to Texas, areas with high numbers of Hispanics often had little in common on Election Day other than backing Republican Orange Fuckface over Democrat Kamala Harris for president.

Fuckface, the president-elect, made inroads in heavily Puerto Rican areas of eastern Pennsylvania where the vice president spent the last full day of her campaign. Trump turned South Texas' Rio Grande Valley, a decadeslong Democratic stronghold populated both by newer immigrants and Tejanos who trace their roots in the state for several generations.

He also improved his standing with Hispanic voters along Florida's Interstate 4 corridor linking the Tampa Bay area — home to people of Cuban, Venezuelan, Nicaraguan, Colombian and Puerto Rican origin — with Orlando, where Puerto Ricans make up about 43% of the local Hispanic population. Fuckface was the first Republican since 1988 to win Miami-Dade County, home to a sizable Cuban population and the country’s metropolitan area with the highest share of immigrants.

https://getyarn.io/yarn-clip/619fbfa3-1db0-4582-ac21-cd6cd95bb852

How?? HOW???? HOW??? How the fuck could Latino voters be that fucking stupid? How brainwashed by the fucking propaganda are they that they actively voted against their best fucking interests? It’s truly insane! No, we don’t need the graphic yet! Remain calm! But we do need to address that this is becoming a massive fucking problem. So how do we win back these voters? Well, the United States is under one party rule and we’re going to be heading into uncharted territory in January. It’s going to take a lot to reverse the ship from jumping off the cliff and we can’t help but feel that social media is tricking people into voting against their best interests. It just sucks right now.

Nowhere is Fuckface’s reshaping of the electorate more apparent than in the states of Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin, the highly coveted "blue wall" that helped propel Joe Biden to victory in 2020.

This time, Fuckface won all three states, crushing Democrats' hopes that Harris could find a path to victory despite early election night losses in the southern states of North Carolina and Georgia.

In his victory speech in Florida, Trump - who is set to win the popular vote too - credited the result to "the biggest, the broadest, the most unified coalition" in American history.

"They came from all quarters. Union, non-union, African American, Hispanic American," he told a roaring crowd. "We had everybody, and it was beautiful."

In Pennsylvania, the prized battleground state, Fuckface benefited from a huge swell of support from the state's growing Latino population.

[font size="8"]Pro-Fuckface Violence [br] [/font] [br]

OK, now that we got the fucking anger out of my fucking system, there’s something that we do need to address here. Fucking hell. Just seriously… fucking hell. Things are getting really fucking ugly out there, and it’s not really that surprising. If it seems like the online hate and harassment coming from Fuckface supporters is getting out of control, you’re not wrong. Things are indeed getting way uglier – both online and IRL. Fuckface supporters have developed an almost stalker-ish motif and they are fucking emboldened by the results of the election. Yup, and we are currently in it for the long fucking haul, so strap in, because these next 4 years are going to suck. So how bad could things get? Well once again, this is one of those things that varies depending on what your sources are. And given what we know about Fuckface’s plans for the military and his plans for dismantling our safety nets, we know things are going to get really bad, really quickly. But if the gun violence prevention folks can see that the proverbial shit is about to hit the fucking fan, so we should be able to also! Yes, Fuckface does enable violent lunatics and it shows!

Some gun violence prevention groups said Wednesday that they plan to double down in their fight for stronger firearm-control laws in the wake of former President Orange Fuckfacee recapturing the White House and promising to roll back President Joe Biden's efforts to curb the national plague.

During his victorious campaign, Fuckface and his running mate, Sen. Ashley Furniture, voiced opposition to most of Biden's executive orders to combat the scourge that the Johns Hopkins Center for Gun Violence Solutions found to be the leading cause of death in the United States for adolescents under the age of 19 for three straight years.

"The election of Orange Fuckface is deeply troubling for our safety and freedom from gun violence," Kris Brown, president of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, said in a statement Wednesday. "And that's why we are doubling down on our work and fighting harder than ever."

Gun violence was a big issue during the campaign. In an ABC News/Washington Post/Ipsos poll released in August, gun violence was ranked eighth in importance among voters after the economy, inflation, health care, protecting democracy, crime and safety, immigration and the Supreme Court.
https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/deeply-troubling-gun-violence-prevention-groups-react-trump/story?id=115530910

Well duh! We’re all in danger! And why do these fuckers want a civil war? They got everything they fucking wanted! They have one party rule! They have a mad man who’s going to gut the entire fucking government and stack the fucking courts with loyalists and he’s creating a puppet ringmaster fucking cabinet… aahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

Sorry… I lost my cool for a minute. Holy shit is this going to be a difficult show to get through! When do we get to I Need A Drink? We’re not doing that this week? Damn it!!!! Then get me a nice tall glass of Jack before I lose it! But yes, if you can stomach it, political violence is going to get that much worse, the MAGA crazies are emboldened and they feel like they’ve been given a mandate. And yes, the Q nut calls for public executions are starting – and they’re getting fucking worse.

Now, the 2024 election could cause another flare-up, especially if Fuckface loses. Discussion of violence among right-wing extremists has also already spiked online, and unlike Vice President Kamala Harris, Trump has refused to say he would concede.

Fuckface has, however, employed violent rhetoric himself. On Thursday, he lambasted former Rep. Liz Cheney, an outspoken Republican critic of the former president who he described as a “radical war hawk.”

“Let’s put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, okay?” he said at a campaign event in Arizona. “Let’s see how she feels about it, you know, when the guns are trained on her face.”

The polls show a tight race between Fuckface and Harris, suggesting that this time, as in 2020, the results may be decided by narrow margins in a few battleground states. Trump has been priming Republican voters to reject the results if he comes up short, making unsubstantiated claims about voter fraud in Pennsylvania and noncitizens voting on a widespread basis. Billionaire Fuckface supporter Elon Musk has also set up a platform on his social media site X, formerly known as Twitter, for users to “share potential incidents of voter fraud or irregularities you see while voting in the 2024 election.”
https://www.vox.com/politics/381520/2024-election-violence-trump-loses-extremism-civil-war

Here’s the thing – for the last TWO years, we’ve railed about how dangerous a second term of Fuckface could possibly get. But people didn’t fucking listen and now we’re fucking stuck with him. And trust us when we say come January 21st, 2025, the fucking shit is about to hit the fan. Right now, think of this as the calm before the storm. We’re in the eye of the fucking hurricane. Hurricane Donald. Yes, Fuckface himself is getting increasingly more violent with his rhetoric, as he showed last week with his thinly veiled threat against Liz Cheney. Who they replaced with Harriet Fucking Hageman, seen here looking like JD Vance’s drag queen alter ego, Ashley Furniture. And of course, like most terrorists do, you celebrate your fucking win by threatening more fucking violence!

Fuckface ran a campaign that stoked culture war grievances and divisions, and was defined by lies, a desire for vengeance, and, at times, threatening rhetoric. In social media posts he threatened mass arrests of his political opponents in revenge for “stealing the election” in 2020 (though evidence conclusively shows the 2020 election was not stolen). Lawmakers, election workers, school board members, federal agents, and judges have been repeatedly targeted over the years with violent threats by his supporters who believe they were acting on his behalf. Fuckface repeatedly promised his supporters he would “destroy” the deep state, invoking the popular conspiracy theory of a nefarious web of faceless bureaucrats working to destroy the US from within. He cast himself, alongside the people who stormed the Capitol on January 6 over election lies, as “political prisoners,” even “hostages” who were being persecuted by a “tyrannical” Biden administration.

And now that he has won the election, his supporters seem just as thirsty for revenge.

A poster on Patriots.win, a pro-Fuckface forum, shared an AI drawing of Nancy Pelosi with a noose around her neck about to be hanged. Others shared images of Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, who has been villainized by the right for overseeing the Biden administration’s immigration policy, suggesting he too be hanged “for high treason.” “FACT!” someone else posted. “The gallows await …”

You want to know why we’ve been calling MAGA terrorists for 8 fucking years? Well, who else celebrates their win with fucking death threats? ISIS. The Taliban. Al’Qaeda. You know who else wants to ban porn and video games? ISIS. Al’Qaeda. The Taliban. You know who else poses with flags and guns and has giant truck parades? ISIS. Al’Qaeda. The Taliban. You see where we’re going with this. And if you know where we’re going with this, let us know in the comments! Oh yes, we’re fucking going there. And these are the people who call themselves fucking patriots, yet they shit on the Constitution every single chance that they get. But yup, MAGA is out there in full force and it’s only getting worse – so much worse for everyone. Thanks mass media, you elected a mass murderer and his fans are getting emboldened. The shit is about to hit the fan.

Orange Fuckface’s MAGA fan base has been celebrating since his reelection was confirmed Wednesday, with the trolls out in full force.

Several posters on right-wing social media platforms are jubilant, Wired reports, with many speaking openly of taking revenge against liberals and other enemies of Fuckface. One such post read, “There has to be as many traitors executed as he has days in office. Build the gallows, restore the REPUBLIC.”

Other posts include references to using military tribunals and executions, as well as armed raids, with one post saying, “New DOJ must utilize armed raids on Democrat Deep State Homes! Drag their asses out into the street, just like they did to our people!!” Another viral meme had the caption, “RELEASE THE PROJECT 2025 HANDMAIDS TALE RAPE SQUADS.”

“Groyper” founder and influencer Nick Fuentes, a proud white nationalist who infamously had dinner with Fuckface in 2022, openly mocked women and supporters of reproductive rights on Tuesday night.

[font size="8"]Donald Trump
[br] [/font] [br]

So just how bad will things get the day after Inauguration Day? Which I might add, is a mere 146 days away. So say goodbye to your freedoms kids because it’s going to get that much fucking worse. The absolute worst fucking things you’ve heard Fuckface could do on day 1 will come true. And yes, fucking all of it. And he’ll have fucking one party rule on top of all of that. Come January 21st, the United States will be in uncharted fucking territory. What could he possibly fucking do, you might ask? Well, it’s going to be an absolute fucking shit show. Fuckface has promised to do a lot of what most people would call “damage”, he calls “rebuilding”. And what most people would call “dividing”, he calls “unity”. See? We can play that fucking game too! But the simple fact of the matter is that this is going to get really bad, really quickly. And it’s not fascism that the United States needs to worry about. Instead, it’s oligarchism similar to Saudi Arabia or United Arab Emirates. And the other term is “kakistocracy” which means that the least qualified people are in charge. So we’ve got an oligarkakistocracy situation happening, and it’s going to get really bad.

President-elect Orange Fuckface will reinstate several executive orders from his first administration that were later revoked by President Joe Biden on his first day in office, his incoming chief of staff said.

The New York Times reported that Susie Wiles gave the news to a gathering of Republican donors Monday, though didn’t specify the orders he would reinstate.

During his first few days in office, Biden revoked executive orders issued by Fuckface that tried to strip federal employees of their rights to collective bargaining, due process, and workplace representation.

He also ditched Fuckface Schedule F executive order that let his administration to hire and fire federal employees for political reasons.

In his first 100 days in office, Biden revoked 24 orders made by Fuckface, including on immigration.
https://www.thedailybeast.com/trumps-day-one-white-house-plan-revealed-at-private-event/

Yeah damn right, he fucking sucks! Look, we called way back at the beginning of the year just how fucking bad things were going to get! And it’s going to be a fucking bloodbath. You know how someone can spend an entire lifetime or lifetimes building their reputation, and then one jackass with a wrecking ball makes it all come crashing down in one week? Well, Fuckface is that jackass with a wrecking ball, and oh, the fucking damage he is going to do! Yes, all of the worst things you’ve heard Fuckface is capable of will come true, especially when his employers, Fox News, have him convinced that he’s got a fucking mandate and one party rule. We’re going to be venturing into uncharted territory here, folks!

Karoline Leavitt, Fuckface’s national press secretary, told Fox News soon after Fuckface was declared the winner that his day-one agenda would consist of launching mass deportations of undocumented immigrants living in the country.

He may do so by revoking temporary protected status that presently allows migrants to legally work in the U.S. or use local police for deportation programs, reported NPR. But these efforts will likely face many challenges.

According to the American Immigration Council, this would cost $7.3 billion. Efforts to conduct mass deportation would also likely face many legal and logistical challenges.

Fuckface has also pledged that he would order more fracking and use of oil on the first day of his presidency. Fracking emerged as a key issue in Pennsylvania, a state he narrowly carried, as Harris' former opposition to the practice became a sticking point to voters in areas where oil drilling is a key component of the local economy.

"I want to close the border and I want to drill, drill, drill," Fuckface told Fox News' Sean Hannity during a town hall event in December 2023.

With respect to the culture wars, Trump has also pledged to sign executive order for schools pushing "critical race theory" or "gender insanity" on day one.
https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-first-100-days-1982833

Yeah it’s a venerable super ultra fecta of the worst things you’ve ever heard any AM talk radio host, Fox News host, or podcaster say about what Fuckface would do all rolled into one. It will be a venerable fucking revenge-a-palooza and no one will be spared. You ever wonder what the Nazis thought when Adolf Hitler got elected to Germany’s highest office and how we got Hitler youth? Well guess what? We don’t have to wonder anymore! Ugh, fucking hell. And again, most of this shit, like critical race theory or “gender insanity” – is all grade A bullshit that the right wing made up to scare people! But even Murdoch rag the Wall Street Journal has said that Fuckface has to abide by the rules. Hey, when has that ever stopped them before?

President-elect Orange Fuckface plans to restore multiple executive orders from his first term that President Joe Biden rescinded as soon as he takes office, Susie Wiles, the incoming White House chief of staff, told Republican donors at a private event on Monday.

While speaking with donors at a closed-door conference in Las Vegas, Wiles said Fuckface is prepared to take action on day one by reinstating previous policies through executive orders – though, she did not specify which ones Trump is prioritizing, the New York Times reported.

Biden reversed at least 24 Trump administration policies within his first 100 days in office.

He rejoined the World Health Organization and Paris Agreement, reversed the Muslim Ban, reinstated allowing transgender people to serve in the military, ceased border wall construction and revoked the Keystone Pipeline permit among others.
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/susie-wiles-trump-executive-orders-b2645810.html

That’s literally what it’s going to be like on day one. It’s going to be a bull in a fucking china shop and Fuckface will turn and cry on his nightly fucking batphone to Sean Hannity about it. It’s going to be an absolute shit show and a nightmare to watch. But when the GOP burns down the fucking government and installs a puppet regime all because the Mad Man in fucking Moscow and his stupid fucking propaganda arm want it, don’t say we didn’t fucking warn you. And yes, I am swearing a lot, but holy shit, am I pissed the fuck off right now. And again, things are going to get infinitely worse. And since the House, Senate, and SCOTUS are now under one party rule, those stupid fucking talk shows won’t have anyone to blame it on but themselves. Fuck!

Orange Fuckface is expected to take a slew of executive actions on his first day as president to ramp up immigration enforcement and roll back signature Biden legal entry programs, a sweeping effort that will be led by incoming "border czar" Tom Homan and other Republican immigration hardliners, three sources familiar with the matter told Reuters.

The executive actions would give federal immigration officers more latitude to arrest people with no criminal records, surge troops to the U.S.-Mexico border and restart construction of the border wall, the sources said.

Homan, who served as acting director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement from 2017-2018 under Trump, will bring a deep understanding of the U.S. immigration system after a four-decade career that took him from a frontline Border Patrol agent to head of the agency that arrests and deports immigrants in the U.S. illegally.

Fuckface is also is expected to end President Joe Biden’s humanitarian programs that allowed hundreds of thousands of migrants to enter legally in recent years and could encourage those with expired statuses to leave voluntarily, according to the sources, who declined to be identified.

[font size="8"]Late Stage Capitalism: NYT Games Strike
[br] [/font] [br]

Top 10 Conservative Idiots Presents:

“Greed, for lack of a better word, is good.” – Gordon Gekko, Wall St. (1987)

When corporate profits are at an all time high, there is nowhere else to go but to make more millions.

There is corporate greed, and then there is:

Welcome back to our segment on the relentless pursuit of never-ending corporate greed, Late Stage Capitalism! Sure, it’s not enough to make $50 billion, you need $150 billion! You need to be able to tank entire countries while you jet off in your penis-shaped rocket to the vast emptiness of deep space! This week, we have to talk about one thing you’re probably extremely sick of by now – the news. Yes, the news – something we used to have until 1997 when it got replaced by opinionated talking heads who are incapable of shutting the fuck up. But one aspect of the news this week was simply lost in all of the craziness surrounding the election. Do you enjoy playing Wordle? Or maybe you also enjoy Connections or any of the other word games published by the New York Times Games division? Well, the tech department at the NYT went on strike last week, prompting many longtime fans and players of NYT games to jump ship in support of the tech department. So if you enjoy playing Wordle, then what else can you play? Well there are some alternatives if you’re willing to look for them and break your long running Wordle streaks!

New York Times tech workers are still on strike after walking out one day before the presidential election. That means they’re still asking people to skip their usual Crossword, Wordle, or Connections routines. But now, the union has released its own offerings for games lovers that could keep them from crossing the digital picket line.

“We know how hard it is to break your Wordle streak, so we have been hard at work making more games for our supporters!” the Times Tech Guild wrote on X on Thursday.

On a page of the guild’s website called Guild Builds, there are currently seven games: Strikle, a riff on Wordle; Connections: Strike Edition; Word Search; Match Strike, a memory-matching game; Frogger 8th Ave (the New York Times office is located on Eighth Avenue); Scabby’s Fair Contract Builder (a reference to labor action symbol Scabby the Rat); and Trivia and Jokes.

The games might not have new versions daily; they’ll be updated “when they can be,” Jen Sheehan, spokesperson for the NewsGuild of New York (which the New York Times Tech Guild is part of), told The Verge. Sheehan added that guild members made all the games except for Strikle, which was made by an “external supporter.” (Strikle first debuted when the guild held a one-day walkout in 2022.)
https://www.fastcompany.com/91224764/striking-nyt-workers-are-asking-you-to-skip-wordle-but-they-made-other-games-for-you-to-play

Yes, it may be time to ditch the NYT Games app. But fear not! The NYT was one of the few sane newspapers left in the country after the 2024 election. But games aren’t the only function of the NYT tech department – they oversee just about everything that happens on the New York Times website, the NYT Games app, and the NYT app. So if you enjoy getting your news delivered to you electronically, then you’d better appreciate everything that the tech team does. But they really could *NOT* have picked a worse time to strike. Especially with Fuckface in charge. Combining the worst time to strike with the worst possible thing to happen to the NYT, well, to quote one of my favorite podcast hosts – it ain’t good, that’s for sure!

The 600 staffers organized with the New York Times Tech Guild—who program essential functions like push alerts, live blogs, homepage designs, and the games—officially walked off the job Monday, and the effect on their employer’s website is already apparent.

The Times’ iconic Needle, a staple of every major election since 2016, may be too buggy to function, according to pollster Nate Cohn. Subscribers are expressing solidarity online by sharing screenshots of their now-broken Wordle/Spelling Bee/crossword streaks, following a guild request for users to boycott the NYT Games app. And the front-page TikTok-style vertical-video promotion of “Our reporters on what to expect” did not last past Monday night.

As for why the Times’ tech workers are acting to upend their own website on the most important news day of the year, this moment has actually been years in the making. Back in 2021, when these employees first announced they were forming a union of their own (one separate from the respective editorial unions that represent the NYT newsroom and its Wirecutter subsidiary), the paper’s leadership refused to recognize the unit, kicking the matter up to the National Labor Relations Board—which soon filed its own complaint against Times management for violating federal labor law by telling other newsroom employees not to express any support for the tech organizers.
https://slate.com/technology/2024/11/new-york-times-tech-guild-strike-election-coverage-nightmare.html

So if you’re wondering if there’s any alternatives to the NYT games you love to play, well there is good news! The striking tech workers made their own versions of the games you love to play, but with a more union friendly theme! While the NYT Games dept are on strike, you can play their versions of the games, without crossing the picket lines. But one thing that the NYT should be aware of though, is that the games dept is undoubtedly its’ most profitable position. It keeps people trekking to the New York Times all year long. Yes, come for the games, stay for the news. Of course, with the news being all Fuckface all the time, you probably want to consider running from that as much as possible.

They’re all very rudimentary versions of the well-worn titles, with a look that makes me nostalgic for browser-based games from the early 2000s. However, games like Connected and Strikle are effectively one-for-one recreations of the NYTimes versions. The daily puzzles released Thursday have a strong connection to the strike, so if you were looking for a hint, there’s that.

No, it won’t keep your Wordle streak going, but at the very least, you can keep your morning habits going while the strike continues. The games page also links to the group’s GoFundMe. The strikers have raised around $145,000 as of writing, with a $150,000 goal. The strikers are demanding the Times agree to a contract without a return-to-office mandate, pay and equity raises to address racial disparities in salaries, and protections against “just cause” layoffs.

The New York Times presents itself as a news organization, but its balance sheets show that its real money maker is its games and software division. This includes the NYT Cooking App alongside its games. The publisher told Axios back in January that users played NYTimes’ puzzles and games more than 8 billion times in 2023—in its latest quarterly earnings report, the Times reported it made $919.6 million on its digital subscriptions (including games and cooking, over the last nine months, a 14% increase from the same period last year. The media company’s news-only subscribers are dwarfed by those who subscribe to other single products or bundles. The Times is still running strong, whereas other news organizations are struggling.
https://gizmodo.com/want-to-play-wordle-without-crossing-the-new-york-times-picket-line-strikers-made-their-own-union-themed-puzzle-games-2000521560 [/gif]

The bad thing about this – once again, the strikers literally could not have picked a worse possible time to strike. Because with all the craziness surrounding the worst election in United States history, this got lost in the news. Nobody heard about it! It was like on page 18 of the newspaper. With of course Fuckface dominating the news every single day. So there is good news and bad news about the strike – the good news is that the games you love will continue. The bad news is that… unfortunately, nothing got resolved in the strike. Maybe had they waited until after the worst election ever, they might have been noticed. But better we still get our games than never.

The New York Times’ tech employees, who are behind Wordle and Connections among other games and features, will go back to work on Tuesday following a weeklong strike. In a statement published on Monday, the New York Times Tech Guild said union members will “march into the office together in the morning as a symbol of what’s to come for The Times.”

The Tech Guild represents the over 600 workers who manage technology across the digital paper. Union members went on strike the day before the US election, raising concerns about whether the NYT’s vote-tracking tech, like the Needle, would hold up on Election Day. The union and the NYT will continue negotiating on a contract.

“The systems and digital products that worked over the election did so thanks to the hundreds of unit members who worked for months preparing everything to run smoothly,” Kathy Zhang, New York Times Tech Guild unit chair said. “What broke down during this strike broke because our members weren’t at work.”

[font size="8"]Holy Shit
[br] [/font] [br]

Gather around my fair brothers and sisters! It’s time to take a seat in the pew and pass the collection plate, for the Holy Church Of The Top 10 has convened and it’s time to remind you that the holiest among us are the most full of:

My fair congregation! Please be seated! You know, I know we’re all shocked, upset, depressed and disappointed in the results of the election, now that the unholy, ungodly Dark One will once again ascend to the throne, which he absolutely in no way, shape or form deserves. And of course, I refer to him as the Unholy Dark One, because he is a creature so foul, so depraved and disgusting that his name dare NOT be spoken in my church! Yes, even if he is the new leader of the supposed free world, I will never speak of or refer to him by his name! Not once, not ever! So the last time we met, we talked about how the Christian right gets the Bible and history totally wrong, every single time. And it’s not a new phenomenon either. It’s been decades leading up to this point! Well, this week, we’re going to take a break from focus on one man who is one of the Dark One’s loyal minions and happens to put his name on the Holy Book. Yes, I’m talking about Lee Greenwood. Yes, you know him as the author of that song that annoys any American who doesn’t live in batshit crazy land – God Bless The USA. While Greenwood claims that his song is apolitical, his actions are anything but. In fact, he’s one of the Dark One’s unholy minions!

Every Fourth of July, a number of beloved songs rise on the Billboard charts. Americans flock to familiar tunes that discuss freedom, independence, fireworks, or the United States in huge numbers, buying and streaming some of the most popular back to the weekly rankings of the most popular tunes in the country. One of the tunes that mounts an annual comeback is Lee Greenwood’s “God Bless the U.S.A.,” and 2024 turned out to be no different for the cut.

“God Bless the U.S.A.” reappears on two Billboard charts this week. The country musician’s famous single became a bestseller once again as thousands felt the urge to buy a copy of the decades-old tune.

In the past tracking week, “God Bless the U.S.A.” sold a little more than 3,300 copies, according to Luminate. That sum is much, much larger than the frame prior, when it sold under 400 copies. The patriotic tune experienced a sales surge of more than 800% from one frame to the next.
https://www.forbes.com/sites/hughmcintyre/2024/07/12/god-bless-the-usa-is-up-more-than-800-in-sales-following-americas-birthday/

No, it’s not over. But of course, every single July 4th, we have to go through this bullshit, and I’m seriously thinking of changing my July 4th song to Nine Inch Nails’ The Hand That Feeds, that seems more appropriate given what’s about to happen, my fair congregation! But of course, we have to talk about the Unholy Dark One putting his hands on the Holy Book. Which, if you’ve been following our program, you know he ain’t holy, that’s for damn sure! And of course, the unholy Dark One, always finds opportunities to make a quick buck off his shitty merchandise. So what happened when he sold those god forsaken books? Well guess what signed copies were going for? Sigh… we wonder why we can’t have nice things in this country!

Former President Orange Fuckface-backed "God Bless the USA" Bibles were printed in China, according to the Associated Press, even as the Republican nominee has continuously criticized trade between the U.S. and China.

The "God Bless the USA Bible," named after the Lee Greenwood song frequently played at Trump rallies, touts itself as the "only Bible endorsed by President Fuckface." While the website for the Bible says it is not affiliated with a political campaign, the product has become known as the "Trump Bible," given his role in promoting it.

Global trade records obtained by the AP indicate that about 120,000 copies of the Republican nominee's "God Bless the USA" Bible were shipped from China's eastern city of Hangzhou to the U.S. between early February and late March.

The estimated value of the shipments was less than $3 per Bible, or $342,000 altogether, according to the news outlet. The minimum cost for the "Trump Bible" is $59.99, putting the potential sales revenue at about $7 million.

And not only is the devil walking among us, he’s soon going to be walking straight into the White House, and that is a damn fucking shame! Well, this might be one of the most egregious pieces of news we’ve seen yet about the GBTU singer. Remember when we said his song was apolitical? Well guess what – it isn’t. Not by a long shot! Well, he told who should be the next president of the United States, Kamala Harris, that she could use it in her rallies – but only if she asks nicely in person. To which he probably replied “Ha ha! No fuck you!”. Fart sound of course added for comedic effect. But make no mistake that Mr. Greenwood is firmly in the Dark One’s camp.

In 1984, singer-songwriter Lee Greenwood didn’t overthink it when he added a catchy and inspiring song about his love for America at the end of his upbeat third studio album, You’ve Got a Good Love Comin’. Forty years later, “God Bless the USA” is a classic patriotic pop song, fitting easily next to “The Star-Spangled Banner” or “This Land Is Your Land” at a public event. Though Greenwood continued to make music across the spectrum of country music, American standards have become one of his specialties, and this year, Greenwood’s 1992 album of them, American Patriot, is getting its first release on vinyl.

A younger generation might only know Greenwood for his recent appearances alongside President Donald Trump, but the singer and songwriter, now 81, has been performing for political figures of both parties since the days of Ronald Reagan. Though he appreciates the cosign from Trump on the God Bless the USA Bible—the one that just so happened to fulfill all the requirements for the Oklahoma state superintendent’s recent Bible order that Greenwood says he hasn’t heard of—he told Vanity Fair in a recent video call that his interest is in American unity, not activism. (Superintendent Ryan Walters later amended his Bible request; it no longer requires the Bibles to include US historical documents such as the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, which very few Bibles include but appear in the God Bless the USA Bible.)
https://www.vanityfair.com/style/story/lee-greenwood-god-bless-the-usa-bible-interview

Yeah that’s the guy who wrote the most patriotic song to ever patrioted. Well, if you’re wondering, yes, you’re going to be hearing this song until your ears bleed the next four fucking years. So yes, Mr. Greenwood is firmly in the camp of his Unholiness. And of course, his Unholiness doesn’t pay anybody – but did you really expect that at this point? Of course not. But come on, the Dark One is all of the seven deadly sins rolled into one. And now this song will forever be associated with him, and that stupid version of the Holy Book too. We really do live in a bizarre timeline, don’t we, my fair congregation? I mean… I can’t even. This is like that scene from Animal House – “Thank you sir, may I have another?”.

Lee Greenwood, singer of popular song “God Bless the USA,” on Tuesday denied having received any money from President-elect Donald Trump's campaign to use his song.

Trump has used "God Bless the USA" during various appearances, including rallies, since his 2016 presidential campaign. Greenwood performed the song during the Republican National Convention this year and also granted Trump permission to use it as his walkout song at political rallies.

The singer also collaborated with Trump on the “God Bless the USA” bible, which contains the U.S. Constitution and other founding documents.

“And I'm proud to be an American / Where at least I know I'm free,” the song’s lyrics read. “And I won't forget the men who died / Who gave that right to me.”

In a post via X Tuesday, Greenwood explained his partnership with Trump has not involved any money. Allowing Trump to use the song, he said, was a way to support the campaign without donating money.

Fucking hell. My fair congregation, I hope this was a distraction from the shit show. I need to go find the biggest, strongest glass of holy water I can find. Mass has ended, may you go in peace! That’s it this week for:

[font size="8"]This Fucking Guy: Tom Homan
[br] [/font] [br]

This week’s This Fucking Guy is Tom Homan. Yes, since Orange Fuckface stole, er, won the election, Fox News has gone into overdrive about who the next “border czar” – a position they completely made up – is going to be. Well, remember how they went into overdrive attacking Kamala Harris for not being enough of a border czar for their tastes? Guess what! They found a guy to be the next “border czar” who’s a literal fucking Nazi! Yes, meet Tom Homan. In case you’re getting James Bond villain vibes just from looking at him, well guess what? You’re not alone! You are going to be hearing this fucking guy’s name a fucking lot in the next few weeks as the transition of power goes back to Fuckface with a literal one party fucking rule. So what could go wrong, you might ask? Well, a hell of a lot. In fact, the GOP and Fox are going to bring you a literal genocide at the border and it’s not going to be fucking pretty. This guy, Tom Homan, is a hard lined enough fucking asshole that he will make it happen. Ugh, this is going to be a literal nightmare to watch unfold.

President-elect Orange Fuckface announced late Sunday that Tom Homan, the former acting director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement who backed his controversial "zero tolerance" policy, will be his administration's "border czar."

"I am pleased to announce that the Former ICE Director, and stalwart on Border Control, Tom Homan, will be joining the Trump Administration, in charge of our Nation’s Borders ('The Border Czar'), including, but not limited to, the Southern Border, the Northern Border, all Maritime, and Aviation Security," Trump said on Truth Social.

"I’ve known Tom for a long time, and there is nobody better at policing and controlling our Borders," the post continued. "Likewise, Tom Homan will be in charge of all Deportation of Illegal Aliens back to their Country of Origin. Congratulations to Tom. I have no doubt he will do a fantastic, and long awaited for, job."

Homan touts hard-line immigration views and previously vowed to “run the biggest deportation force this country has ever seen.”

He was an early supporter of the Fuckface administration’s “zero tolerance” policy, which led to thousands of families being separated at the southern border. Trump eventually signed an executive order in 2018 reversing the family separation policy after public outcry.
https://www.democraticunderground.com/100219702234

Seriously, the Fuckface admin couldn’t have found a literal fucking nazi if one had came and knocked on their door. And Fuckface is making it clear that his administration plans to go absolutely hard authoritarian, and we certainly haven’t seen the worst of it yet. In fact, a lot of people are going to die and go to prison because this fucking lunatic is in charge. Now the question on the table is will Project 2025 come to fruition? The answer is yes – it will, and a whole lot worse. In fact, who knows if the United States is going to exist on January 22nd, it’s going to be a fucking bloodbath. And everything you’ve heard will come true and worse!

When Orange Fuckface announced his intent to name Thomas Homan to a new cabinet position of “border czar” upon retaking the White House in January, the president-elect continued erasing the distance between his agenda and Project 2025, the far-right blueprint crafted by the Heritage Foundation.

Homan, the acting director of U.S. Immigration Customs and Enforcement during Fuckface’s first term, is a visiting fellow with Heritage and a contributor to the Washington, D.C., think tank’s Project 2025, subtitled the presidential transition project.

The 900-page manifesto expands on Fuckface’s promise to expel tens of millions of undocumented immigrants by detailing how such a massive undertaking could be accomplished through executive and congressional action.

Project 2025 even calls for the kind of cabinet-level immigration post that Homan will fill.

Oh he’s pure fucking evil and he hasn’t even got started yet! So yes, there’s going to be a lot of talk about Fuckface’s insane plans to mass deport anyone who so much as breathes at them funny, and it’s going to get really fucking bad, really fucking quickly. So what is that going to look like? Yes, the thought of bringing literal concentration camps to American soil is going to happen whether we want it to or not, and these disgusting douchebags are going to bring them. And as we’ve been saying through this edition, we’re going to be seeing literal tyranny come to American soil. Which is absolutely insane coming from the party who constantly rails about tyranny. Yes, the hypocrisy totally reeks with these sick fucks at the helm!

Veteran immigration official Tom Homan will be in charge of the country's borders following Trump's inauguration in January.

With a decades-long career in law enforcement and at the border, all eyes will be on how he plans to cut down on illegal immigration into the US - a flagship policy of Trump's election campaign.

So how will he approach the task?

Homan - an ex-policeman and former acting US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) director - has described immigration at the US border as "the biggest national security vulnerability this nation has seen since 9/11 and we have to fix it."

Addressing illegal immigrants in the US during the Republican National Convention in the summer, he said: “You better start packing now.”
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c75l1r0qv0po

That’s putting it lightly. Tom Homan and anyone who plans on working for this sick fuck, are themselves, sick fucks. And guess what? When he starts the job on January 21st, he’s going to rule with an iron fucking fist and damn anyone who stands in his way. Yes, if you’re a democratic governor in this country, he and his stupid raid team are going to plow through your driveway and destroy your car whether you want them to or not. So yes, strap in my friends. Because the worst things you’ve heard about what the Fox News administration is going to do to the border will come true. And it will all be broadcast for you on RT, er, Fox News live every night.

Donald Trump has rehired the highly controversial immigration official Tom Homan, considered one of the key architects of the “zero tolerance” family separation policy during his first administration.

The immigration hardliner served as the acting director of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) between 2017 and 2018.

The president-elect wrote on his Truth Social platform overnight that Homan would be in charge of “the Southern Border, the Northern Border, all Maritime, and Aviation Security.”

Homan will be involved in Trump’s stated goal of carrying out the “largest deportation operation in American history” through federal, state, and local law enforcement by invoking the same 1798 law used to carry out mass Japanese internment during the Second World War.

[font size="8"]Conspiracy Corner
[br] [/font] [br]

Welcome back to our segment that attempts to explain the unexplainable, Conspiracy Corner! Of course conspiracies exist when people simply don’t want to read the article past the headlines and just flat out make shit up. We of course are coming to you live from our underground doomsday shelter from deep within the New Mexico badlands. Undisclosed location, of course! Let me just adjust my trusty tin foil hat for maximum government interference. Ah, there we go! They are trying to read yours and my thoughts, after all! Now this week, since Fuckface got “elected” to the White House, again, and he plans to rule with an iron fist, there’s been a lot of talk about one of his most controversial talking points – “Make America Healthy Again”. Well, of course, Fuckface can’t talk since he eats McDonalds 3 meals a day and hasn’t had a sip of water in 15 years. I mean come on, Fuckface looks so disheveled and dehydrated that his skin could break off like ice, is the one to talk. And more specifically the guy who he tapped to MAHA, is anything but. That’s of course RFK Jr. He’s been hawking batshit crazy conspiracy theories and quack cures for years. But this latest talking point is one of his most dangerous. That is fluoride in the water supply. Which was brought to you by Alex Jones, who uses Infowars to sell you bullshit water filters and protein supplements. So this could get ridiculously bad very quickly.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s recent comments on fluoride are prompting questions about its safety and why it's used in drinking water.

Kennedy, a former presidential candidate turned Fuckface supporter who has long shared anti-vaccine views, said on social media earlier this month that Orange Fuckface would push to remove fluoride from drinking water on his first day in office if elected president. Fuckface has previously suggested he'd put Kennedy in charge of health initiatives.

A day later, Fuckface told NBC News he had not spoken to Kennedy about fluoride yet, "but it sounds OK to me. You know it's possible."

In a post on social media, Kennedy claimed fluoride is linked to a slew of health problems.

Dental experts largely disagree.
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/fluoride-in-water-health/

It sounds OK? And not just batshit fucking crazy? Because anyone who’s not glued into the internet conspiracy theory infosphere and actually lives in, you know, reality, will tell you that this plan sounds absolutely batshit fucking crazy! And nobody started complaining about fluoride in the water supply until batshit crazy raving fucking lunatic Alex Jones first appeared on the scene! And if you’re wondering if this talking point is complete fucking bullshit, well guess what? You are absolutely 100% correct, tell them what they’ve won? Well, they have won a one way ticket to Shit Town! Because RFK Jr and his conspiracy theory quackery are going to get a lot of people killed.

Dentists and health experts say regulated levels of fluoride in public drinking water help protect against tooth decay. Social media posts amplifying claims by former independent US presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. that the mineral is an industrial waste product causing adverse health effects including bone and neurological problems mislead about research on the impact of high doses of fluoride.

"In case you didn't know, fluoride has been directly linked to many different neurological issues so the fact that the Trump administration is going to remove fluoride from our water supply is a massive deal," says the speaker in a November 5, 2024 Instagram video.

The clip includes a screenshot of a November 2 X post from Kennedy which claimed Orange Fuckface would back the removal of fluoride from all US water systems due to the purported adverse effects on health.

Over the following days, as election results confirmed Fuckface as the president-elect, other users on Facebook, Instagram, X and TikTok latched on to Kennedy's claims and reignited longstanding misinformation about the harms of fluoride consumption.
https://factcheck.afp.com/doc.afp.com.36LX6KX

Yeah really! I mean come on… these people just lie and lie and lie some more! Telling the truth is hardly in their best fucking interests. Seriously, take a moment and just imagine this for a minute. Picture RFK Jr in charge of public health. Now picture him gutting the Center For Disease Control (CDC), the Department Of Health & Human Services (HHS), the Federal Drug Administration (FDA), and pulling out of the World Health Organization (WHO). And also imagine him eliminating fluoride – something that occurs naturally – from the water supply completely. A near impossible task. You can’t, can you? Oh wait, you can, because a lot of people are going to fucking die because of this man. But the guy who’s going to be running the show now thinks it’s “OK”? SMDH.

Under a Trump presidency, fluoride will be removed from America’s public water supply, according to Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

The claim comes from a post on X, shared by Kennedy on Saturday, just days before the 2024 presidential election.

“On January 20, the Fuckface White House will advise all U.S. water systems to remove fluoride from public water," Kennedy wrote. "Fluoride is an industrial waste associated with arthritis, bone fractures, bone cancer, IQ loss, neurodevelopmental disorders, and thyroid disease. President @realOrangeFuckface and First Lady @MELANIAFUCKFACE want to Make America Healthy Again."

In a follow-up post, Kennedy called fluoride a "dangerous neurotoxin."

Water fluoridation, or adding fluoride to drinking water, is a decades-long practice in the U.S.—but Kennedy’s claims have ignited questions about the safety of fluoride in drinking water and what would happen if it were to be removed from the U.S. water supply. Here’s what you need to know.
https://www.health.com/fluoride-drinking-water-rfk-jr-8739559

And you know what? This is all so that fucking asshole Alex Jones can sell his sell his bullshit water filters to the fucking idiots who buy them! And if you think we’re swearing enough, well guess what? I don’t think we’re swearing enough, honey! Well, in case you’re wondering if batshit crazy inspires batshit crazy, well guess what? It’s already inspired one town in Florida, obviously, to act on it. The town of Winter Haven, in the wake of Fuckface’s helper monkey, Mr. Brain Worm, to discontinue the use of fluoride in the water supply. And yes, we were correct in our assumption that a lot of people are going to fucking die because of Mr. Brain Worm. Just wait until January. And my favorite comment is the one in this article. “I only have one brain”. Uh no you don’t.

Winter Haven officials have voted to stop adding fluoride to the city's drinking water out of concern for the potential negative health impact on young children's developing brains.

Commissioners voted 3-2 on Tuesday night to discontinue adding fluoride to the city's water supply by Jan. 1, or "as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter." Mayor Nathaniel Birdsong Jr. and Commissioner Clifton Dollison were the two votes against.

The practice of adding fluoride to water has become a topic of debate after a federal court ruling in the case of Food and Water Watch versus the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in September. The court called on the EPA to strengthen its regulation of fluoride in drinking water as it poses "unreasonable risk of injury to health or environment."

"I can get false teeth if needed. I only have one brain," Winter Haven resident Hannah Bush said.

[font size="8"]People Are Dumb
[br] [/font] [br]

Hit it!

Of course, you know by now that People Are People, and People Are Dumb! I want to start by saying what exactly makes a People Are Dumb story. A high speed pursuit down the 405? Not a People Are Dumb story. A high speed pursuit down the 405 involving a truck carrying live chickens that crashes into a KFC? Now that’s a People Are Dumb story! And no, we got a lot of requests after the election, but we are *NOT* going to use this for people who voted for Fuckface and then regretted it after they found out what he actually fucking stands for. Nope, we may save that idea for another segment. Unlike Lee Greenwood, we’re keeping this segment apolitical. And not all People Are Dumb stories are stupid criminal stories. We do love them, though! Send us any stupid criminal stories you got! We collect them, trade them with our friends. Anyway, I want to start with this story out of Taiwan where 2 tons of irony crashed into 2 tons of irony. That’s right – a dock crane in Taipei crashed into a container ship carrying – I shit you not – more dock cranes! You really can’t make this one up!

“Out with the old, in with the new” is a popular thing to say around this time of year. While it might usually be in reference to fresh starts, new season clothing or even a neat little bargain you picked up on Black Friday it can also apply to shipping cranes, apparently. At least, it does in Taiwan where a ship delivering new cranes to a port hit and destroyed the old one.

A 230-foot tall ship to shore crane at the Keelung Port in Taiwain was due to be replaced later this year, reports World Cargo News. As such, a vessel arrived into the port earlier this month with a new crane loaded on board.

However, while the Yuzhou Qi Hang docked in Keelung on October 14, the hulking mass of the new crane collided with the out-of-action old crane and knocked it over, as World Cargo News reports:

Video footage from the incident shows that a loaded STS crane on the vessel struck an existing onshore crane while the vessel was berthing. The heavy load vessel Yuzhou Qi Hang, was being assisted by a tugboat and was maneuvering slowly into position when the collision occurred. Three STS cranes were loaded on Yuzhou Qi Hang at the time of its arrival at the port and were intended for the port’s West Coast Container Terminal.

Next up – we go to the town of Stuttgart, that’s in Germany, don’t you know? For this incredibly bizarre and disgusting story. Look, we live in an era of unbridled consumption. Even the Ancient Romans and Greeks got nothing on us. So we are not surprised that a play company in Stuttgart put on a live S&M show – the kind Queensryche sang about in Operation Mindcrime. And yes, we’re also not surprised that people fell violently ill witnessing this disgusting spectacle. For the love of god, if you’re thinking about paying people to watch something like this, uh, don’t. And if you are thinking of attending something like this, uh, don’t.

Eighteen theatregoers at Stuttgart’s state opera required medical treatment for severe nausea over the weekend after watching a performance that included live piercing, unsimulated sexual intercourse and copious amounts of fake and real blood.

“On Saturday we had eight and on Sunday we had 10 people who had to be looked after by our visitor service,” said the opera’s spokesperson, Sebastian Ebling, about the two performances of Sancta, a work by the Austrian choreographer Florentina Holzinger. A doctor had been called in for treatment in three instances, he added.

Holzinger, 38, is known for freewheeling performances that blur the line between dance theatre and vaudeville. Her all-female cast typically performs partially or fully naked, and previous shows have included live sword-swallowing, tattooing, masturbation and action paintings with blood and fresh excrement.
...
The version that unsettled audience members in Stuttgart this year supplanted the original musical performance with naked nuns rollerskating on a movable half-pipe at the centre of the stage, a wall of crucified naked bodies and a lesbian priest saying mass.

Next up – of course, we cannot get out of here without talking about our favorite state in the union – the Sunshine State. Florida. Which of course, is what Homer Simpson famously referred to it as “America’s Wang”. Yes, Florida never fails to bring the crazy week after week after week. A lot of our stories, we can thank our good friends at r/FloridaMan for providing us every week! Let’s start with this story out of Hernando County. Look, if there is one take away you get from our program, let us leave you with this advice – never impersonate cops! Under any circumstances. They ain’t playing. We see these stories all the damn time! And every single time it’s literally the same outcome and just stop it people! Stop it! This story has a twist though!

Plenty of people drive Dodge Chargers and some of them even drive retired police vehicles. That’s all perfectly above board. What normal citizens can’t do is outfit their cars with red and blue lights and then flash them to illegally run a red light. One driver in Florida is learning that lesson the hard way after allegedly doing exactly that in front of a police officer.

Hernando County Sheriff’s Detective William Harsanyi says he witnessed the infraction on October 15 around 8 a.m. The driver of a black Dodge Charger came up behind Harsanyi while the pair traveled on the same road in the same direction. Evidently, the Charger actually pulled up directly behind Harsanyi who was driving his assigned unmarked police cruiser.

As for the bigger picture, authorities say there’s no evidence at this time that (omit) attempted to pose as a police officer in interactions with the public. That said, they’re keeping the door open for further investigation.

The Hernando County Sheriff’s Office is encouraging anyone who might have relevant information to step forward by calling 352-754-6830. While we may never know what (omit) was thinking, one thing’s for sure: playing cop to cut through traffic isn’t just a bad idea—it’s an expensive one.

Finally this week – we go to the town of Brooksville for this one. And we know that we’re not exactly living in what would call the “safest of times” right now. We can’t even get packages delivered properly to our doors without worrying about theft. Well, one thing you should never do is use your brand new toy as a weapon. And this particular toy happened to be one of the most controversial vehicles of the entire century – the Tesla Cybertruck. And this may be the first time ever that a Cybertruck makes the People Are Dumb list. Oh and this particular story has a twist – it was a *RENTED* Cybertruck. So hope this guy has good insurance. Because this is exactly what makes a People Are Dumb story!

The Tesla Cybertruck is a spectacle on wheels—a massive, angular slab that looks more suited to the set of a sci-fi film than the local Walmart parking lot. But it’s not just about turning heads; as one Florida man found out, it can also be a weapon of vigilante justice. When an unsuspecting owner rented his Cybertruck out through Turo he had no idea that his ride would end up in the middle of a high-stakes confrontation with a porch pirate.

The incident happened in Florida close to the renters home in Brooksville. “About to find out how good TURO’s insurance is… Yesterday my renter saw a porch pirate running to car with his box, accelerated and crashed into said porch pirate making a sandwich with the burglar’s car and a tree,” said the owner, Stefen Phelps, on Facebook.

Video shows the moment when the renter drove up toward his house and saw the pirate leaving the porch before jumping into what looks like a Genesis G80 sedan. With basically zero hesitation, the Cybertruck driver accelerates up to the Genesis, gets beside it, and keeps it from successfully turning left, the only direction available on that particular road. With nowhere else to go, the Genesis driver fails to slow down in time and hits a tree next to the road.

[font size="8"] Road To The White House 2024
[br] [/font] [br]

Welcome back to our segment that lumps all of the election coverage of the 2024 election to end all elections in: Road To The White House! Well now that the election is over and Fuckface is coming back to the fucking throne, we’re changing the name to… Road To The Shithouse! And yes, the upside down flags and poop emojis are going to be very necessary! FUCK. FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCKING… FUCK!!!! OK breathe. You know what? This week we’re going to talk about a new and completely unique feature to the Fuckface 47 administration – the Department Of Government Efficiency. Yes, DOGE – named after Fuckface bestie and helper monkey Elon Musk’s joke crypto currency, is going to eliminate a whole lot of jobs. And it’s going to get really fucking ugly, really fucking quickly. But before we get into what the stupid fucking DOGE is going to do, I first want to take a moment to tell you what Fuckface got himself into. He got a really annoying house guest who thinks he is the fucking president. Scary shit.

Tech billionaire Elon Musk was handed a major win Tuesday evening when President-elect Orange Fuckface announced that the Tesla and SpaceX CEO would co-lead a new “Department of Government Efficiency” with Vivek Ramaswamy.

The announcement reinforces the closeness Musk has managed to achieve with Trump, even after the election. But for some people in Trump’s orbit, Musk’s presence has felt overbearing.

Musk has been so aggressive in pushing his views about Fuckface’s second term that he’s stepping on the toes of Trump’s transition team and may be overstaying his welcome at Mar-a-Lago, Fuckface’s home in Palm Beach, Florida, according to two people familiar with the transition who have spent time at the resort over the past week.

The sources said Musk’s near-constant presence at Mar-a-Lago in the week since Election Day had begun to wear on people who’ve been in Fuckface’s inner circle longer than he has and who see him as overstepping his role in the transition. The sources spoke on condition of anonymity because they’re not authorized to speak publicly.
https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-news/elon-musk-trump-donald-mar-a-lago-appointment-position-rcna179826

Yeah he’s like that extra character that they add in the later seasons of sitcoms when they run out of plot lines. Which is what this next fucking administration is going to do. And let’s not forget to point out the fucking irony here – the party that wants *LESS* government interference is literally creating an entire new post so that Fuckface’s personal helper monkey can have something to do. And this is the kind of bullshit we are going to have to put up with for the next four fucking years. Remember just last week, we were dreaming that he wouldn’t be a threat to democracy anymore, he’d just be a really shitty insult comic. Well, the DOGE is going to do way more damage than you could every possibly fucking imagine, and then some. This is what it’s going to entail.

President-elect Donald Trump announced Tuesday that Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy will lead a new “Department of Government Efficiency” in his second administration.

“Together, these two wonderful Americans will pave the way for my Administration to dismantle Government Bureaucracy, slash excess regulations, cut wasteful expenditures, and restructure Federal Agencies,” Trump said in a statement.

The announcement of Ramaswamy and particularly Musk, who leads companies with existing, lucrative government contracts, raises immediate questions about potential conflicts of interest. It is not immediately clear how the department – which Trump said would “provide advice and guidance from outside of Government” – would operate, and whether a Congress even fully controlled by Republicans would have the appetite to approve such a massive overhaul of government spending and operations.

Trump had proposed the creation of a government efficiency commission as part of a slate of new economic plans that he unveiled in early September. At the time, he said Musk had agreed to lead it if he were to secure a return to the White House.
https://www.cnn.com/2024/11/12/politics/elon-musk-vivek-ramaswamy-department-of-government-efficiency-trump/index.html

Yeah, seriously. Remember that scene in Spiderman: Homecoming when they announced the Department Of Damage Control? It’s literally the real life equivalent of that. And Vivek Ramaswamy… what the fuck does that guy do, exactly? What the fuck does he do? Let us know in the comments! But we can’t emphasize just how much of a fucking nightmare this fucking administration is going to be on this country. Look, Joe Biden was a great president, but we know he wasn’t perfect. It took a lot to get the smell of stupid out of the room. But now that smell of stupid is coming back stronger than ever. So this department is going to be playing literal fucking games with people’s careers and livelihoods. But let’s point out the irony of creating a department to manage “efficiency” doing anything but that.

President-elect Orange Fuckface and Elon Musk have big ambitions for making the federal government leaner and more efficient by reviewing its budget and operations from top to bottom.

Musk, the world’s richest person who owns or runs several companies, has warned that his goals – including cutting at least $2 trillion in federal spending – could cause “temporary hardship” before ultimately creating “long-term prosperity.” His pronouncements are prompting budget experts to scoff, while sending chills down the spines of many federal workers and those who depend on the federal government for assistance or their livelihood.

Details about how the new Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, will operate – and how Musk and his co-leader Vivek Ramaswamy will avoid conflicts of interest – remain scarce. But the duo has spoken openly about areas of the government they’d like to see altered, while Fuckface and Republican lawmakers have a long list of programs and operations they’d like to reform.

It’s important to note that while Fuckface has promised that the initiative will make “drastic changes,” Musk and Ramaswamy will not have any direct power to make spending cuts, regulatory changes or other moves. The group will exist outside of the government and will likely serve to make recommendations to the White House for the president’s annual budget, which outlines the president’s vision but Congress is not required to follow.
https://www.cnn.com/2024/11/14/politics/elon-musk-doge-trump/index.html

Yeah that’s a good question – what could possibly go wrong? Our fucking government is about to be run by a fucking meme, that’s what! And of course, some fucking eyebrows are being raised about this stupid fucking “department”. But, seriously, come on. Have you ever expected Fuckface to do anything ethical in the 8 years since he wormed his way down that fucking escalator? Of course not, and he’s not about to start now. Just when you think that it couldn’t possibly get any worse, new fucking lows are reached fucking daily with this crew. Think things are fucking bad now? Just wait until Fuckface starts announcing the Fox News fucking dream team cabinet. It’s going to get a whole lot fucking worse.

President-elect Orange Fuckface’s announcement Tuesday that tech billionaire Elon Musk and biotech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy will lead a newly formed advisory Department of Government Efficiency has alarmed some government ethics experts, who say the pair's deep financial interests could lead to potential conflicts of interest.

Some ethics experts are particularly alarmed that Musk and Ramaswamy's roles have been described as "outside of government" -- an arrangement that could potentially mean they would not be subject to normal financial disclosure rules, despite the major impact their work could have on the federal government.

"Together, these two wonderful Americans will pave the way for my Administration to dismantle Government Bureaucracy, slash excess regulations, cut wasteful expenditures, and restructure Federal Agencies," Trump said of Musk and Ramaswamy, both of whom were vocal supporters of Fuckface’s reelection campaign.

As outside governmental advisers, Musk -- who owns Tesla, X and SpaceX -- and Ramaswamy -- who founded the biotech firm Roivant Sciences -- might not be subject to federal requirements mandating that officials disclose their financial interests to the Office of Government Ethics.
