this can’t be real
He put them together at the kids table that doesn’t exist I’m fucking crying
its easy to make fun of this (and i think we should) but its also important to note the description of this new department that trump has given
[transcript: "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 - essential to the 'save america' movement," trump wrote. "i look forward to elon and vivek making changes to the federal bureaucracy with an eye on efficiency and, at the same time, making life better for all americans."]
to be clear: trump is planning to create a new department whose purpose is literally to deregulate and defund government oversight. this will lead to corporations having greater freedom to fuck over consumers while making more money, and he is putting two billionaires in charge of it.
sure, maybe this is just a ploy to keep them quiet. giving them the illusion of power in exchange for backing him. but lets not forget all the regulations trump cut during his last term
which has directly led to the constant recalls of consumer goods and foodstuffs over the past several years. the recent e coli outbreak at mcdonalds? the boars head listeria recall? these are the products of deregulation. getting rid of laws and standards that protect consumers by making sure money hungry corporations dont cut corners.
the funny name is a smokescreen. keep your eye on these fuckers.
fucking relatable master yupa
"WASHINGTON, Nov 11 (Reuters) - U.S. President-elect Donald Trump said on Monday he will appoint former congressman Lee Zeldin to run the Environmental Protection Agency.
'He will ensure fair and swift deregulatory decisions that will be enacted in a way to unleash the power of American businesses, while at the same time maintaining the highest environmental standards, including the cleanest air and water on the planet,' Trump said in a post on his social media platform Truth Social."
Reminder that all these food recalls and food poisonings are a direct result of the orange shitgibbon administration gutting food safety regulations.
Let me tell you, this is no joke.
I was in food service when he got elected. And I swear it was barely a month into his presidency when we got a call to throw out every bit of romaine lettuce we had on hand because of a recall. We'd literally just had a grocery run and had to throw several bags into the trash, which is a big fucking deal because we were not a a big chain or anything like that. We were a locally owned coffeehouse that had just barely managed to grow enough to have a couple locations and an offsite bakery/food prep kitchen.
This or equivalent proceeded to happen roughly once every 2-4 months until I left that job in 2022. We literally could not make it more than 6 months without having to toss a significant chunk of our inventory because of a recall. The really fun ones were when we knew the source of the recall and had to painstakingly go through our stores of the item in question and check the origin so that we could hopefully only throw out some of it rather than all of it.
Do not give this man a second chance to go at safety regulations. It'll be the triangle shirtwaist factory all over again.
I did not think he could get more unhinged and yet
can trump drop out too i know he wants to trend on twitter
You guys realize this means we ALL have to vote now. No "don't wanna vote biden" excuses now- if we don't vote our rights are going to be taken away.
