Summary

Musk is trying to backtrack on his previous demands to shut down the government.

Elon Musk initially supported a government shutdown, criticizing Republicans who backed a continuing resolution and calling for no new bills until Donald Trump retakes office.

His posts on X encouraged GOP hardliners and contributed to chaos in Congress.

After a bipartisan spending bill failed to pass, Musk blamed Democrats, ignoring that 38 Republicans also voted against it.

Facing backlash for his earlier remarks, Musk is now deflecting responsibility as House Speaker Mike Johnson struggles to avoid a shutdown.

    I mean, I wonder if dipshit really did think he had a clue at some point? I think imposter syndrome really SHOULD be a thing with more people, especially this motherfucker right here.

    Also - I just realized The Circus was cancelled. That seems awfully convenient. I’m supposing that Showtime is also another “liberal” outlet just chock full of “liberals”…
