Ashe in America dives into another chaotic day in the swamp, starting with Elon Musk’s wild ride through Washington. The New York Times is screeching about his government efficiency overhaul, calling his cost-cutting efforts baseless claims because apparently, waste, fraud, and abuse don’t exist in D.C.. Meanwhile, four FEMA employees just got axed after Musk exposed their secret plan to blow $59 million on luxury migrant hotels.
On Capitol Hill, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna teases a bombshell on the JFK files, only to announce… a new committee. If you thought Congress was finally about to hand over the truth, think again. Elsewhere, Jordan’s King Abdullah is playing 4D chess with Trump over Gaza, but Reuters conveniently leaves out his humanitarian efforts in their reporting. And in Slovakia, their Prime Minister is openly accusing USAID of funding political destabilization operations, which is just fancy talk for regime change slush fund.
Back in the Senate, Tulsi Gabbard’s confirmation is delayed due to snow, while RFK Jr. and Cash Patel are next in the hot seat. Over in the trade wars, Trump’s tariffs are sending Europe into a full-blown panic, and Jameson Greer is on deck to help reshape global trade with a plan that has Brussels shaking in its boots.
Plus, Musk is making a $97.4 billion play for OpenAI, J.D. Vance is warning Europe not to strangle AI innovation, and Zelensky is floating a bizarre territory swap proposal with Russia that sounds more like a desperate Hail Mary than a negotiation tactic.
