In other words…you’re idolizing pieces of shit.

Congrats!
Last Sunday, the head of the Lutheran social services outfit in the Northwest woke to find his phone had been blowing up.

“I had texts and calls that had come in overnight from people all over the country, some of them extremely alarmed,” says David Duea, CEO of Lutheran Community Services Northwest in Tacoma.

“We Lutherans,” he joked, “are normally a reserved and quiet group.”

What happened was that at 3:14 a.m. East Coast time, the multibillionaire Elon Musk sent a tweet that implied the Lutherans were involved in criminal activities.

Michael Flynn, once President Donald Trump’s national security adviser before getting fired, had been compiling lists of federal grants that he considered to be “VERY ROTTEN.” In one, Flynn listed some grants awarded to about 15 Lutheran nonprofits, including Duea’s group, describing it as akin to a “money-laundering operation.”

Musk responded approvingly: “The @DOGE team is rapidly shutting down these illegal payments.”…….

No, the Lutherans are not a money-laundering operation. They use donations and local, state and federal grants to help the poor, which they’ve been doing in the Northwest for 104 years.

No, the payments are not illegal. They’re typical grants, authorized by Congress and administered by the Health and Human Services agency. The Lutherans competed for them with a host of other nonprofit groups.

OK. Back to the story.….

In Washington, Idaho and Oregon, the Lutherans’ top line of work is family support and mental health counseling, with food and clothing giveaways, senior help, homeless shelters and so on. They also help refugees who have been brought here legally through the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program, matching them with host families and providing other support.

Some of their clients were scared and on heightened alert even before the Lutherans got smeared by Flynn and Musk.

“We spent the first 48 hours just trying to make people feel safe,” Duea said.

Musk, though, has 216 million followers on X. His tweet impugning the Lutherans was viewed more than 20 million times.

It was hard to ignore the 10,000-strong comment mob.

“The corruption runs deep,” said one. “Keep up the good work, Elon, the barn has not been cleaned out for way too long.”

“So,” asked another, “the ‘Lutheran’ faith is now a new branch of the ‘Get Rich Quick’ scheme?”

“If it’s illegal, why aren’t people being arrested,” urged another.

We’re less than three weeks into the new Trump administration and we’re talking about arresting … the Lutherans?

Duea said the vetting of any grant is fair game. But he’s gobsmacked they would portray century-old poverty-aid groups as criminal…..

And you’re defending groups giving aid to illegals. The Biden admin facilitated illegal immigration by cutting loose illegals that crossed at the border, or who used the CPB One App (hey you can apply for and have approved your illegal immigration and even be flown in!) classifying them as so called ‘refugees’ and ‘asylum seekers’. Yeah, we know the Biden admin brought in shit tons through the US Refugee Admissions Program (The Afghan refugees from Biden’s Afghan disaster were a tiny % of that). And they gave shit tons of $$$ to groups like the Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service.
Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service reported more than $93.1 million in U.S. government grants in its 2021 financial statement, making taxpayer-funded grants more than 80% of its total support.

The pieces of shit are the ones who let 10+ million flood into this country and gave billions to NGOs to resettle them. The US Gov shouldn’t be spending a dime on any resettlement & social services on most of these people. People who legally immigrate to the US aren’t suppose to be public charges.

elon has tweeted enough lies and bullshit that it's fair to question everything he says and tweets.

Only a gullible fool would believe everything he tweets enough to retweet it or post it here (outside of the Political memes, Posters, Funny Pics, Etc. thread) without fact checking it.

Lol most of what Elon has tweetd hasn’t been lies and BS. Sounds like you have developed a case of EDS..

And Biden, Commiela, and the rest of the public figure donks and lefties over the years have tweeted enough lies and bullshit that it's fair to question everything they said/say/tweeted/tweet.

Only a gullible fool would believe everything the donks and libs tweet enough to retweet it or post it outside of the Political memes, Posters, Funny Pics, Etc. thread without fact checking it first, but that hasn’t stopped you TDSers and lefties from posting it on all kinds of threads.

Enough of elon's tweets/retweets have been lies for a reasonable person to question his credibility. He likes to believe and spread bullshit so much you'd think he was a fertilizer salesman.

Do you have examples of me posting untrue tweets/retweets outside of the Posters, Funny Pics, Etc. thread? I'm sure there are a few but I'm not doing it several times a day.

Your "derangement" in defending trump is just as bad if not worse than my "derangement" in cricizing/mocking trump.

Giving comfort and aid to refugees is what their church and prophet require them to do. I’m sure Catholic charities is similar.

If you want to start taking a closer look at government funding of religion, be my guest. And let’s not stop at grants. Let’s start taxing all the churches. They’ve been freeloaders snd grifting long enough.

And yes…your idols are still pieces of shit.

Return to In-Person Work
Heads of all departments and agencies in the executive branch of Government shall, as soon as practicable, take all necessary steps to terminate remote work arrangements and require employees to return to work in-person at their respective duty stations on a full-time basis, provided that the department and agency heads shall make exemptions they deem necessary.
Does this mean that trump won't be working from mar-a-lago? Or is he a hypocritical "do as I say, not as I do" kind of leader?

Most of the shit she mentions could be handled by other fed depts and/or done at the state level.

“Sends billions to public schools.” lol if that isn’t the stupidest thing because those billions aren’t the DOE’s $$$ in the 1st place. It came from the states!
-The fed taking billions from the states.
-Fed then taking their middleman cut off the top and returning less billions to the states & localities.
-States & localities then giving the schools the $$$$
Versus
-States & localities then giving the schools the $$$$.

Would waste a hell if a lot less $$$ because you’d be cutting out the middleman (DC bureaucrats who have their nose in the trough).

P2025 prescribed it, Vance laid the groundwork over the weekend, and now with the new ruling and administration’s plans to appeal, MuskTrump is toying around with a constitutional crisis.

Control the courts, control the media, build mass detainment centers…there’s a bit of a trend here.

Trump is getting close to working as many hours in the first 5 weeks as Biden did in 4 years. Its really weird that a guy Trumps age can work 105 hours a week and still find time to golf and hit the superbowl.

Does Trump work too hard, where does he get the energy? The Don is too engaging and detail oriented, how does he do it? I guess we just need to let Trump be Trump and not try to figure it out. If only Biden had put down his hubris and ego down long enough to put the country first like Trump has, we wouldn't have the enormous hole to dig out of.

Thank god this high energy President has gotten more done in 4 weeks than any other president in recent history. How does he do it? No one works harder than Trump. No one asks tougher questions. No one is better at making decisions. Its truly amazing
