No, I actually didn't vote for Trump. But, I have frequently made it known that I support RFK and his efforts to clean up the environment, health care, and get Big Pharma under control. Puting labels on people isn't a fair way to argue a point.

It's being called an "audit" but includes much more, such as downsizing and reorganizing of the government. However, Trump openly campaigned on what he is doing now and the public accepted it. Since it is such a huge project in a short period of time, there are going to be mistakes. But, the alternative is that nothing is done, which has been the decision up to now. The people who are complaining just don't want the status quo to change.

No, the question is what is Grok 3 smoking? Doesn't he have something to do with Elon Musk "As of February 21, 2025, there’s no definitive evidence that Elon Musk is directly firing government employees himself, randomly or otherwise. However, there’s a lot of buzz around his involvement in Donald Trump’s administration, particularly through the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), a non-governmental advisory group he co-leads with Vivek Ramaswamy. Let’s break this down based on what’s known. Musk doesn’t have the legal authority to fire federal employees single-handedly—he’s not an elected official or a confirmed government officer. DOGE is an advisory body, not an official agency, meaning its role is to recommend cuts and restructuring, not to execute firings directly. Trump, as president, holds the executive power to initiate such actions, and Musk’s influence appears to be channeled through this partnership. Reports indicate that since Trump took office in January 2025, significant workforce reductions have occurred, with Musk playing a key advisory role. Have firings happened? Yes. By mid-February 2025, thousands of federal workers have been terminated across agencies like the Department of Veterans Affairs, U.S. Forest Service, and Department of Energy. Reuters reported on February 13 that over 1,000 probationary employees at Veterans Affairs and 3,400 at the Forest Service were let go, with additional cuts at other agencies like the Department of Education and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. By February 14, the total number of firings exceeded 9,500, alongside 75,000 workers accepting buyouts to leave voluntarily. These actions align with Trump and Musk’s stated goal of slashing the federal workforce, which totals about 2.3 million civilians. Were these firings random or logical? It’s murky. The process has targeted probationary employees—those in their first year or two with fewer legal protections—making them easier to dismiss under existing federal rules. Termination letters cited vague reasons like “not fit for continued employment” or “performance not adequate,” suggesting a broad sweep rather than individualized assessments. Musk and Ramaswamy have proposed cuts tied to eliminating regulations, arguing that fewer rules mean fewer staff are needed, but specific plans tying each firing to a regulation remain unclear. Critics, including unions and some lawmakers, argue the approach lacks method. For instance, an accidental firing of 325 National Nuclear Security Administration workers—key to nuclear stockpile oversight—prompted a partial reversal, hinting at hasty execution. Posts on X and media like Vox have called the cuts “random,” pointing to a lack of transparent analysis. Conversely, Musk’s camp, including Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, likens DOGE’s work to a financial audit, implying a deliberate review, though details on criteria are scarce. Legal challenges add complexity. A lawsuit from 14 states claims DOGE’s actions are unconstitutional, arguing Musk wields unchecked power without Congressional oversight. Federal judges have issued mixed rulings—some blocking DOGE’s access to sensitive systems, others allowing it—suggesting the process is still evolving. So, is it true? Musk isn’t personally firing people in a vacuum, but he’s heavily influencing a rapid downsizing effort under Trump. Randomness versus logic depends on perspective: the focus on probationary workers and buyouts follows a procedural logic, but the lack of clear, public justification for specific cuts fuels the “random” perception. Without DOGE releasing a detailed playbook, it’s hard to say definitively—it’s a fast-moving, chaotic purge with some strategy but plenty of improvisation."

Elon Musk seems to be doing a much needed job of auditing the government. Obama actually promised to do this when he was president. Why didn’t he? Since the democrats didn’t do it their way, they have forfeited the right to complain. I strongly suspect that those computer hackers are using the latest AI tools to trace the flow of money, thus being able to document kickbacks and corruption. If this is real, there will eventually be arrests and prosecutions. Evidence will be submitted in the courts of law so that the public can see what is happening. We need full transparency.

Here is an article from NPR that reports what actually happened. https://www.npr.org/2025/02/19/nx-s1-5302481/trump-independent-agencies

He appears to be talking about agency laws. This would affect quasi-independent agencies like the FTC, FCC, and SEC. In the past they have been allowed to operate with minimal Presidential supervision. The executive order is basically increasing control of the President over the agencies, which is the perogative of the President who is the head of the executive branch. This is a good example of how clips are taken out of context and used to fuel a bubble of hysteria. https://www.timesnownews.com/world/us/us-news/donald-trump-latest-executive-order-only-president-attorney-general-pam-bondi-can-interpret-us-law-article-118371626

That isn't evidence. It means you don't like his opinions.

Evidence?

Alexander Mercouris gives an insightful analysis of what is happening.

There is a difference between America and the American Empire. The American Empire is bankrupt and can no longer be the single hegemon that polices the world and keeps order. That’s why its important that America, China, and Russia come to an agreement of mutual coexistence and cooperation. The policy of the Biden Administration of not talking to Russia was insanity. At least now the present administration has opened up talks with both China and Russia.

That is what I was told too. Conventional information on the Internet can be wrong. What I learned is that you can’t assume any psychedelic is mild. Psychedelics are unpredictable, especially San Pedro and Peyote. Also, there was 10% peyote mixed into the San Pedro. Most of the people that night were walking around and talking. They were fine. The “shaman” never experienced anything close to this so he basically ignored me because he didn’t have a clue what was going on. He was serving a plant medicine he was unqualified to serve and he was unaware of its full power. Mescaline can last for more than 20 hours, so if it takes you, you are stuck for a long ride. It was way more powerful than Black Ayahuasca which I took in the jungle.

The main advantage of 5meo is the short amount of time. As long as your heart rate is under control and you can breath then just tell yourself to relax. The closest I came to insanity was a 17 hour San Pedro trip.

The perpetual war strategy of the Biden administration was cruel and inhumane. Ukraine is strategically important to Russia, but not to the United States. NATO was just as responsible as Russia for the debacle. The reality is that the United States has to focus on China, which is a superpower and the only rival of the United States. The United States is also deeply in debt and can’t afford to be a hegemony anymore. Europe has to take care of itself. The neocons are delusional and can’t see that.

I did Bufo Alvarius at the very end of a cannabis trip 6 hours after my last ingested chocolate. Even though the bufo was only a microdose, it increased my heart rate to dangerous levels. I could feel my heart pounding. I cleared my mind and focused on my breath so I wouldn't panic. When I could finally get up I measured at 120 bps. And that was when I was feeling back to normal. I strongly recommend not taking any other drug with 5-meo. It is just too powerful and the unpredictability of mixing it with another drug could prove fatal.

Robert Kennedy was sworn in today as America's Health Secretary. He gave a powerful speech. I'll post it here since you will never see it in the corporate media. https://x.com/i/status/1890141921559109875

If they irritate you that much, it’s not going to work out. But if you reject both the Trump supporters and the new age soy boys, you might end up with a neotantra predator. But keep in mind, a legitimate spiritual path is difficult and requires the discipline to face reality, the opposite of avoiding it, which is the modern world with its endless distractions and entertainment.

That’s the claim of the democratic politicians who don’t want the audit. But the quote I gave was not from Trump, it was from Barack Obama, February 24, 2009 in an address to a joint session of congress. So, why didn’t the democrats follow through? Now that Trump is doing it they find reasons to complain about somebody making a reasonable audit within the powers of the executive branch. This should actually be getting bipartisan support.

Generally, I think that Elon Musk auditing the government for waste and corruption is an excellent idea. The US is already essentially bankrupt and steps need to be taken now to get control of the spending. I don’t understand why anyone would object to this: “We cannot sustain a system that bleeds billions of taxpayer dollars on programs that have outlived their usefulness, or exist solely because of the power of politicians, lobbyists, or interest groups. We simply cannot afford it.”

Elon Musk giving review of what he has found so far in his auditing and suggests there is significant fraud.

If you look at Trump’s foreign policy, it is a huge shift from the establishment view. He says he is making America great again, but what he is actually doing is dismantling the Empire, e.g. getting America out of Europe, the Middle East, buy Greenland and protect Panama Canal to shore up the Western sphere. China is now a super power on par with the US. We are transitioning from hegemony to a multi polar world, which is very dangerous. If Trump can make a deal with China on a new world order, we can avoid a nuclear war.

I use to think Christianity was nonsense. Ironically, it was Hindus who convinced me there is something to it. The Hindu saint Ramakrishna actually became a Christian to see if it works and verified that it can lead all the way to enlightenment. The part of Christian dogma that I still think is false is their claim that they have the only true path. Hinduism teaches there are many paths up to the top of the mountain.

Keep it simple. Do some Bhakti yoga and work on opening the heart. Stay away from non duality and neo advaita intellectual blabber. You could check this out. It’s Bhakti and has a nice vibe.

In the 1960s, autism was considered extremely rare, with estimated prevalence rates of 1 in 2500 to 1 in 10000 children. The CDC estimated in 2023 that there were 1 in 36 children in the US diagnosed with autism. Even better diagnostic criteria doesn’t account for this. When RFK, Jr. gets to the bottom of this it is going to destroy the “I am good” image of the politicians who voted against his comfirmation. This is their real fear.
