'President Musk Will See You Now (If You're Bearing Money or Power)'
"In this so-called holiday season, welcome to America's 'Mump regime,' governance of, by and for the oligarchs in which an erratic unelected white supremacist gazillionaire whose new hobby is buying presidents is cosplaying as shadow president to cash in - and fuck kids with cancer - alongside a senile grifter selling everything in sight: Bibles, sneakers, perfume, hotels, cabinet seats, diplomatic posts and democracy itself. Beware: Just to be clear, 'We now have a criminal enterprise, not a government.'"
"With the tsunami of dark money and corporate coercion engulfing our politics, it's unsurprising that ever-mercenary-president-elect-in-name-only Trump is assembling the richest administration in history, or what Jeff Tiedrich calls 'a fucktangle of oligarchs (named) to his Confederacy of Sewer Clowns.' So far, there are 13 billionaires; of course they include Space Nazi Musk, the richest man in the world, and biotech kingpin Vivek Ramaswamy, who've been tasked with 'improving the efficiency of government' by running it like a pitiless business and gutting vital services for millions of non-billionaires - food, heat, health care, education - in the name of brutal profit and an imaginary mandate to launch 'a hostile takeover' of government 'on behalf of the American people.' So much for Trump's garbled 'voice' of a working class - the rent is too damn high! - struggling to buy gas, eggs, bacon, butter, and other basics (let's get real) foreign to a guy who's likely never stepped foot in a grocery store."
