They can't read.

Well, Johnson better get his tooshy in gear and whip some GOP votes! As usual it’ll take Dem votes to get it over the finish line.

I wonder what Washington, Madison, Hamilton, and Jefferson would say about one man, getting on a phone, shutting down a branch or two of our government. Is the Republic gone? Should we stop saying, "We the People..."?

The circus is back in town. With Trump as the lead clown.

Yay, oligarchs! Such freedom!

Our country is so screwed and the people who voted for this will end up wishing they never did! I'm just going to wait and watch for the melt down!

Do wimpy fucking republicans even breath without asking permission. Weakest motherfuvkers alive.

Republicans can’t lead. They Only work when they are the party of grievances. Couldn’t even elect a speaker last year. This is going to be a shit-show.

I don’t recall Elon Musk being elected. WTF USA?

Great. Let the Federal government collapse. So are we all going to become Mad Max roving bands Jan 1st or give it a few weeks?

if Elon shuts down the government, let’s shut down Tesla and boycott the techno-fascists. Buying a Tesla now is even more Nazi than buying a Mercedes in 1940.

So did 83 people that bought teslas 🤷‍♂️

They’ll probably spontaneously combust

Not if we have to buy them first. That would put our money in Elmo's pocket. Again.

❗️:)

Yep it sure does. I'll never buy one and if I owned one I'd set the fucker on fire. Oh...wait...they do that themselves

Him. Looks like every time you buy a Ford, GM, democracy dies a little. Of course, Toyota, BMW, and VW also contributed. So, i guess you won't ever be able to buy a car, huh?

Nope, it's capitalism and free markets. Enjoy y'all

Yup, it’s official

Always were.

Who elected musk king?

Apparently, as evidenced by the orange anus faced idiot being “elected”, he has bought his way to the presidency.

"raise concerns about excess spending" NOTHING. BUT. FUCKING. LIES. FROM. YOU. FASCIST. COLLABORATORS. They're doing it because they want to try to blame Biden for raising the debt ceiling and that wasn't in the bill. YOU ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM. #BOYCOTTWAPO

You helped do this to us. #BOYCOTTWAPO The oligarchy and its toys of manipulation and control must die.

How much is Bezos planning to make on shorts when they deliberately crash the economy? How much of the US economy is he figuring he'll eventually own when he invests at the deliberately caused nadir? GO. FUCK. YOURSELVES.

If Elmo runs for speaker, does any Pub have the guts not to vote for him?

This is outrageous -- an actual elected official, working with other elected officials, is being thwarted by an unelected billionaire asshole Thanks for creating such "darkness" WaPo, you've ensured democracy does actually die Slow clap

WTF does Elon Musk have to do with our government? Why can’t he be deported or exiled???

I forgot how much I enjoyed all this winning four years ago. So glad we’re back.

direct oligarchy 💪🏻

*independence

Maybe if we’re lucky, Musk will have an “accident”🤞🏼

This is RIDICULOUS!They are ass***

On the plus side everyone now knows the price.

George Soros is a Pub myth. Yes, there is a real man with that name, but he is nothing like the Jewish Wizard of Pub legend.

No. "Co" is NOT sufficient. The drumbeat needs to start NOW that Musk is a shadow president who has made Trump his manbitch.

They all think that they'll get a better deal because the democrats won't want to let a shutdown occur right before Xmas. Hopefully the democrats will tell them to pound sand.

Republicans DO NOT WANT TO LEGISLATE. They want paid to do nothing for the people.

PUNISH PUNISH PUNISH. THE EVIL YOU BRING.

So who is going to bring a case to the Supreme Court challenging the Citizens United decision. How can this country consider itself a democracy if the unelected individual who donates the most money gets to dictate legislative decisions?

FACES, meet LEOPARD. He promises to be nice and not at all carnivorous.

They’re not rebels they’re opportunists

On December 22, 2018, Trump shut down the government & kept it shut for 35 days, ending when airline workers said that skies were unsafe & they would not go to work. Of course, this harmed the US, & yet Trump is now re-elected. Our citizens have a death wish. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2018%E2...

Billionaire cancels Huricane Relief

I didn’t have Elon on my ballot… did anyone else?

Let the shutdowns and mayhem begin!

He bought the office of POTUS and the US government for $177 million.

Good, they own it. Trump will be lucky to have 5% approval by March.

Can’t wait to see how you blame it on Biden. Or Hillary. Or Obama.

The US olicharchy starts of well.

Excess spending? You mean the tax cut money they want??

Maybe I’m crazy but since when does rocket man get to set policy for republicans? He talks to Putin, hangs out at Maralago, has Thanksgiving with all the Trumps, not his own 11 kids. Now he’s running the House GOP and what else?

Real Story: Politicians create another phony government shutdown crisis to frighten people into accepting another pork-laden budget bill.

Elon, go home and play with your rockets. Maybe beat your goal and set off to Mars...slowly.

Who voted for the illegal immigrant? 🤔

That sounds like word soup. This really means: Republicans don’t care about you.

World’s richest subsidize spectrum Mark shuld kick rocks & touch grass.

It’s not meant to. Unfortunately, the 🍊🫏🕳️ and GOP only care about money. I don’t understand how these men are getting away with any of this. Nothing like this has happened in our country before. Someone needs to stop it. The Constitution and justice only works when people uphold it.

Who TF elected Musk?

All the fault lays at the feet of the GOP. Dems are not going to bail them out without major concessions.

Go ahead, put your billionaires on a turbocharged power trip over Trump, funding the military, employees overseeing our health, transportation, food and social security at holiday time Start the year when kids have to go back to school. Oh and also, let Trump own it publicly bsky.app/profile/bloo...

Every piece of bipartisan legislation 45 wants to scrap. If for no other reason to show he’s powerful and he intends to reign down hellfire on the Democrats and anyone who dares not to grovel at his word. He’s not even president yet… show so backbone Congress!!!!

Republicans hate America. Hard stop.

President Elon wants you to hear him.

Unfortunately the inauguration party bullshit is privately funded. By billionaires and corporations evidently.

"Concerns"? That's a funny way to say coming up with a bullshit reason to shutdown the government.

If there was a President in office right now he'd call Schumer and Johnson to his office and work on negotiating a deal

Stop using his name. Muskrat works better.

Massive amount of pork in that. Doesn't matter which side you're on, don't let The Swamp waste your taxpayer dollars. Don't get fearmongered about gov shutdown. Non essential workers just go on paid vacation.

#freeLuigi r/AntiShooterStory

AYFKM?

Unfortunately we will all pay the price.

Please stop giving Musk headline status. He loves the attention and is as narcissistic as much as trump.

I mean why is Elon Musk calling the “SHOTS” on anything?

A non-functional government under Trump will be preferable to a violent one that steals from its own citizens.

🤦‍♂️

Zero votes were cast for Elon. Remember that as his influence continues to subvert the US government for his own benefit.

Cancel Musk's government subsidies. That'd shut him up.

It’s insane that Musk is wielding power. He needs to be removed. I don’t care how.

Well, after all Musk does own them. He owns the MAGA corporation. The “Speaker” is merely an employee.

"We can break that!" -Orange jesus and L'eon Mush Dec. 18th, 2024

So… Elon Musk is the President?

Can we please send Elon back to Africa?

They’ll blame Biden and no one will understand. America has become so illiterate.

You Americans are funny

Hey Democrats: Maybe after you have your nap, take your prune juice and trade your stocks, you can start going on TV to tell people 'Elon Musk is shutting down the government'. Not that you care about your base, but this would begin to win people to your side. Get a spry 60 year old to do it.

Wait wait stop bitching and understand what this means. Musk wants to shut down the government that will be wholly controlled by the GOP!!! In the 1st month of them taking power. Isn't this a political gift to Dems? Y'all know how popular it is to shut down the government with voters (it's not)

🤬

Elect clowns you get a circus

If you dress like that, you will be treated like that.

Massive amount of pork in that. Doesn't matter which side you're on, don't let The Swamp waste your taxpayer dollars. Don't get fearmongered about gov shutdown. Non essential workers just go on paid vacation.

Elon is the president elect, not feckless Trump

This WB okay until it is not.

Mr Musk is behaving like the king behind the king, isn't he?

Hang Mike Johnson?

Gosh if only some reputable news organizations had warned us about the unholy alliance between Musk and the GOP……

Nobody raised concerns about excess spending, especially not Musk whose various businesses are underwritten by said spending. They just make noise and cause chaos. Why do you always put the most positive spin on what Republicans do?

Just what the morons voted for!

Typical. Republicans can't govern.

Much of the American people forgot about the chaos of the #Trump years. The chaos is back and he’s not even sworn in. They’re in for a rude and dangerous awakening.

Dems need to hold tight here

TRUMPS ARE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS FROM SOUTH AFRICA! TRUMPS ARE NAZISTS! KICK OUT FASCIST ELON MUSK FROM USA!

Why is Space Karen running the Congress? No one voted for him for anything.

Musk contributed $250 million (on record) to Trump’s campaign. Unofficially a lot more. This right winger and mentally imbalanced pos is now calling the shots. Only in America!!!

“Conservative rebels?” Domestic terrorists

This is their MO. Destroy a great economy. We told you so.
