Summary

Laura Loomer criticized Elon Musk as a “welfare queen,” accusing him of profiting from billions in government subsidies while advocating for H-1B visas, which she claims take jobs from Americans.

Loomer’s remarks highlight a rift within MAGA supporters over Musk’s influence and Trump’s alignment with him despite prior anti-immigration promises.

Steve Bannon escalated the attack, demanding “reparations” for jobs lost to foreign workers hired by tech giants like Musk.

Musk, whose companies received over $25 billion in subsidies and contracts, defended his stance on immigration and insulted American workers.

    Does it matter who is mad, or who doesn’t approve of what President musk and secretary trump are doing? They have the power, and they will do whatever they damn well please. No amount of “infighting” will slow them down. It will take a massive exertion of force and pressure from the outside, from the masses, to make them stop.

      It does matter who’s fighting who. All the time they put into arguing with each other is time they don’t spend agreeing and making bullshit policy.

      It matters because they have been programmed to listen to those people, and ignore the rest. It’s an echo chamber in there and so when someone inside that chamber goes off it gives all the idiots inside a big dose of reality. Will it stick? Will it last long? Doubt it. But for a brief and wonderful moment, some of those fools are forced to use their brains, even for just an instant.
