It’s Superbowl Monday! There may be some problem with saying that, but it also seems that most have bigger things on their plate.

David Waldman is here to help carry our metaphorical plates

Greg Dworkin somehow hauls in his Raft O’ Stories™ while riding in on the new FAFO Express™. 

Jeff Stein over on the NOT-Z website describes what he sees as the DOGE game plan. (Jeff will describe it to you at the Good Place also.) Kingpin Elon Musk adds to Trump’s psychopathogarchy an all new economic model with him at the top of the pyramid scheme, and a system of government similar to your health insurance help line. Already Musk’s trademark efforts have cut worker turnover in half.

Elon’s handymen are busy installing backdoors all over Washington.

Much of what Boss Musk is doing is illegal, but who’s going to tell him, will he listen, and if not, who’s going to make him listen? JD Vance believes that Trump should just shut down the “federal” part of government and just hand off the rest to the States.

Russell Vought, the acting director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, didn’t act that way for long, shutting it all down and adding a few more lawsuits to the pile. The National Security Agency will be deleting any websites that show bias… that is, the word “bias”, also “prejudice”, “racism” and “gender”. Everyone knows that if those words are eliminated, so of course would be the problems. Trump knows to fire the people foolish enough to come to the diversity training that he ordered.

Trump meanwhile assures citizens that the treasury is rigged, and that their dollars are fake, so just calm down until Mike Lindell takes a look at everything. Farmers were assured that their USDA funding would not be frozen, but no one promised that they would keep sending them checks. You can trust Trump to be a liar, but you can’t trust that he is always lying. You can trust Trump to be purely transactional, but you never know if you are the recipient, or the payment.
