Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy are making big claims about leading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), but one conservative columnist warns that it's all for show.

"There is little chance Elon Musk will save us from debt. It's all a show," wrote Dace Potas, who leads Lone Conservative, which purports to be the largest conservative student publication in America.

As much as Trump wants to claim that he will address government pork, his first term gave no indication that he will actually do so. Trump approved $8.4 trillion of new borrowing over 10 years. Even if you take away pandemic-related debt, he approved $4.8 trillion worth of new debt, which eclipses President Joe Biden’s net $4.3 trillion of borrowing over a decade.

Steve Bannon took aim at billionaire Elon Musk, saying the world's wealthiest man has "masters in Beijing" during a Saturday episode of his WarRoom podcast.

The podcaster has previously called Musk a "stone cold liar" and said "his paymasters" are from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

A recent X update announcement explains that Musk aims to tweak the algorithm "to penalize 'negativity' while promoting content that is informational and entertaining. Musk's goal is to enhance user experience by increasing what he refers to as 'unregretted user-seconds.'"

Bannon suggested Musk was exhibiting hypocrisy after previously saying that he'd make X a beacon of free speech. The right-wing podcaster said the billionaire was taking a cue from the CCP.

"Elon Musk—he can't take a punch. And he's certainly got a glass jaw," Bannon said. He also took aim at Musk for saying he'd reduce negativity on the platform, noting that the billionaire himself had made incendiary comments about his critics.

"He's using a social credit score," Bannon said. "He's using it from his masters in Beijing—have taught him through the Shanghai joint venture, of how to use social credit scores."

China's so-called "social credit" system has drawn substantial criticism in the West. Beijing's end goal is to establish a master database, a blacklisting system, and a reward and punishment instrument that can be applied nationwide, with the aim of measuring trust in society, government, the judiciary, finance and commerce.

Elon Musk appears to have turned on Reform UK party leader Nigel Farage, the right-wing populist and friend of US President-elect Donald Trump he previously supported.

“Farage doesn’t have what it takes,” Musk posted on his social media platform X on Sunday, saying the party “needs a new leader.”

It’s an abrupt about-turn by the Tesla Inc. chief executive, who just days ago said “only” Farage’s Reform UK can “save” Britain while calling for fresh elections in the country. Both men recently met at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort, with Farage touting a possible donation by Musk to his party.

How long will it take for musk/trump to screw things up?

Data proves Trump 'inheriting an economy that is about as good as it ever gets'​

Two weeks ahead of the official start of his second presidency, Donald Trump is slamming the United States as a "disaster" on social media.

"New data reported in the past few days indicate that murders are way down, illegal immigration at the southern border has fallen even below where it was when Mr. Trump left office and roaring stock markets finished their best two years in a quarter-century,"

"Jobs are up, wages are rising and the economy is growing as fast as it did during Mr. Trump’s presidency,"

"Unemployment is as low as it was just before the Covid-19 pandemic and near its historic best. Domestic energy production is higher than it has ever been,"

"the America that Mr. Trump will inherit from President Joe Biden" beginning January 20 "is actually in better shape than that bequeathed to any newly elected president since George W. Bush came into office in 2001."
