I don't mind Musk weighing in because it's obvious from before the election he would be a significant influence on Trump

But the past weeks are very concerning. A government contractor having direct meetings with heads of states and businesses leaders in the President-elects home?

Why is he on the phone with a Head of State while Trump is speaking?

While his advisers that he directly hires has prominent influence of departments he doesn't even head.

Now he's threatening to primary his own new party and have another Speaker fiasco when the Republicans have only a 5 seat advantage

Totally understand your point. I can’t say for sure Gates has but most of the pork put in by reps are likely items from ppl like Gates or musk or lobbyists or donors. I also haven’t read the full bill or any of it. but a CR should ultimately be a basic few page bill to assign another day with funding approval up to that point.

Trump doesn’t pass the budget. He can veto it and make suggestions but your blame should be on uniparty congress.

There is legislation in this bill that has ZERO to do with the budget. We are being scammed again and again by these RINOs and Dems.

If they put a stipulation to not receive lobby money I'd be slightly ok with the raise. Motives matter and this bill looks like crap. I wish Johnson would talk about why he resorted to this stuff. I'm curious if other things that pale in comparison were being discussed. Don't say it had to be passed just say why you resorted to this. Playing the fence makes you a shill.

Johnson looks sick to his stomach that this CR was released as he knows how bad it is and how bad its coming back to bite him in the arse.

Really? Currently, we have a senile President that may pass away in the next year or so. And now Elon is running the US Government for Trump?

Sounds like you people want to play nice while reforming this massive and corrupt government.

Sounds like you want Trump's advisors to be establishment shills who "stay in their lane".

Your either leftists or fools.

And Elon is in an advisory role. And he advised the speaker. So how is that not staying in his lane.

And thank God he is in Trumps Courner. There are always people around a president. Never heard talk of them "running things" before.
