Washington DC

With the advent of the Department of Government Extinction™ being implemented in the United States Capitol and all the reduction in government benevolence, it often goes unnoticed who the real victims are.

The Unelected™ destructor of Norms™, Elon Musk has informed the Illegitimate™ President Trump, who is literally not my president, that there has been too much government benevolence (as if that's a thing) being doled bestowed upon the CDC's agency of the National Institute for Allergies and Infectious Diseases. This agency does much great work in creating and experimenting with global pandemics, as witnessed in 2020.

One of the sad aspects of this reduction in charity to this world renowned and important research institute is the sudden firing of hundreds of puppies who have dedicated their lives and bodies to the betterment of the Science™ of manufactured pandemics. This is a great loss to Science™ and to the world.

But what's not often talked about, amongst all the banter about who is more deserving of government charity, is the effect this has had on the puppies. These puppies were housed in climate controlled cages and regularly fed. They were well cared for because that was necessary. Conducting experiments on unhealthy puppies is Unscientific™ and would be detrimental to Scientific™ enquiry. No serious conclusions could have been reached if experiments were conducted on unhealthy puppies.

But Trump doesn't care. He's thrown these puppies out, onto the streets, in the middle of a brutal winter polar vortex. This just goes to show just how out of touch the president is with what the people of America really want. Who doesn't love puppies? Only evil people!

Well stated, Comrade KKK. I agree wholeheartedly: Trump is not your President.
(unless he decides to make Australia the 51st State)

Unscience marches on!
(to undo the Science™ that temporarily supplanted Real Science)

51st is already taken - not officially yet, but just a matter of time. Aussies can be 52nd, though - that's pretty good.

I would not have a problem with that. It would reset our government to what it's supposed to be.

Would you call it a 'great reset'?
Or perhaps a 'very big, beautiful reset.  Everyone says so'...?

A very big, beautiful reset, like nobody's ever seen before. It would be unbelievable. And with Dingoes.

That sounds good.  You could even use the same MAGA acronym!
 

A story from Rep. Thomas Massie

When I was County Judge Executive in Lewis County, Kentucky, I was responsible for signing the check for every phone landline and cellphone billed to the county.

At first, it seemed impossible to ferret out the waste, fraud, and abuse of these phone plans. How many phones were taxpayers paying for that were defunct? How many were former county employees who were no longer employed but had been able to keep their phone and mooch off the taxpayer? Was any of it fraudulent or inaccurate billing by the service provider?

But then I came up with an idea… I told every county department (Sheriff, Clerk, Road Crew, Jail, etc.) to give me a list of their phones matched to their county employees or offices. In one month, I would DEACTIVATE EVERY PHONE that wasn’t on one of these lists. A month passed, and only about 80% complied with the directive to list their phones. I gave them one more month and issued a severe warning that their phones would be turned off at the end of the following month. Finally, I directed the phone company to deactivate all phones that weren’t accounted for.

Guess what? The jailer called me up and said the fingerprint machine wouldn’t send fingerprints to the state police anymore. Ha! That was the only legitimate phone line that I deactivated.

We quickly got it reactivated. I ended up saving our county thousands of dollars on the phone bill, much to the chagrin of the phone company and a few moochers who no longer had free phone plans. Most of the savings came from phones that weren’t in service but had been left on the bill.

Why do I tell this story? Because what Elon is doing by asking federal employees to list five things they did in a week is brilliant. Requiring any affirmative response from a worker will prove whether that worker even exists and can be reached. Don’t forget, the Inspector General for Afghanistan found out we were paying millions for soldiers and police in Afghanistan who didn’t even exist (ghost employees). There’s no telling what Elon’s plan will uncover. We will find some employees can’t use email or aren’t even literate enough to write five things. So everyone, take a chill pill and write down your five things to let us know you exist, you can read email and aren’t entirely insubordinate. Then, we can clean the roster.

Comrade, you are absolutely right and I salute you for weeding out the leeches who sucked the blood of The People™.

I, myself, had a similar experience some years ago. I discovered that I was being leeched heavily, so I immediately terminated my phone service. Several years later I got a bill from that phone service for the last five minutes I used my phone. I paid the leech five dollars and laughed.  

Most Equally Esteemed Comrade trashmouth,

I was present for the formation of TSA back in the day.  I worked for the FAA, but as the aviation security function was transferring, we had to watch that disaster unfold.  (Then later we were given the choice between working for the new agency or unemployment.  Staying with FAA was not an option.)  The contractor that was to hire the 60,000 new screeners was a study in anarchy.  There were over 10,000 ghost employees hired for airports that did not exist at one point.  No one ever mentioned where those paychecks were going.  A few years later the guy in charge of our airport was perp walked out of the office.  It turns out he was getting the checks for at least 10 employees who had quit.  He also submitted invoices from his paper companies for services never delivered.  I was kind of amazed when he was caught. I have no doubt he was not alone in this activity.  The system was set up begging for fraud.  My experience as a civilian Federal Employee left me with little confidence in The System™.  It will be most satisfying to watch DOGE give it what for.

Since it’s Mardi Gras, the legend is during construction at a certain nuclear plant on a really big river, two shrimp boats were constructed during regular construction. It was the second boat that got caught moving through guard shack that blew the shut off valve.

DOGE is simply reminding us that people aren’t angels, even when they have their bureaucratic dream job.

Most Equally Esteemed Comrades,

I am enjoying a hearty helping of schadenfreude.  The Left honestly thought felt that after 3 assassination attempts and extensive lawfare, The Donald™ would do the normal Republican thing of meek submission to the Democrats even though he won the election.  I have anecdotally verified this by listening to several bat shit crazy Far Left acquaintances.  They obviously have not been paying attention.  The actions of the Executive Branch after January 20 seem to have come as a total surprise.  “When will he stop?” asked one Lefty moron.  This is going to be a smorgasbord!  Please pass the salt. (For the wounds)

I saw this on social media and remembered that James Madison said, "Don't believe everything you see on the internet." The quote is often misattributed to Abraham Lincoln or Thomas Jefferson, but I digress.

Anyway, I wanted to know if it was true, so I thought I'd consult with an expert:

It's certainly true, comrade. The change was made soon after I returned to the Southern Paradise Gulag™. It's full of Great White sharks and, as any sports fan can tell you, Great White Shark is synonymous with gulf. 

Puppies looking for sympathy can submit their claim to

LAIKA
C/O The People's Cube
Interwebs

provided Elon Musk hasn't shut us down.

So, this is Trump's nefarious plan. Do you remember the accidental experiment in which rubber duckies tracked ocean currents? Trump means to throw frozen puppies into the Gulf of America and claim all the territories on which their sad little bodies make landfall. Revolting.

I don't remember that particular experiment but, apparently, it's had very far reaching consequences. One of those rubber duckies washed up on the shores of a local beach, recently. You can't imagine my shock, comrade.
