Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

It means firing a shitload of people, eliminating a shitload of regulatory capabilities, and teeing up a massive tax cut

It's stripping out the cooper wiring. It's a libertarian walks into a bear

> Wants to cut government spending and make the government more efficient

> Invents a whole new division of government that will require funding

> Department is of dubious legality, likely requiring changes to be litigated over a period of months if not years to actually make major changes to other departments

> Hires a person who have no governing experience so he has to be trained on the job

> Said a person that also has no experience in other branches of government so even if this isn't a malicious act (it is), he'd have to then learn what other government departments do

Efficiency, American style

Said person claims to already be working 18 hours a day at a car/battery business, a hole drilling business, a bird website and a space company

says he works 80hrs a week, public records show 60 of which are just tweeting.

Nobody knows what it means but its provocative sicko-beaming
