We all know that the appeal to authority means nothing after those 51 former intelligence officials signed off on Antony Blinken's letter claiming that the Hunter Biden laptop story showed all the hallmarks of Russian disinformation. "Former" officials always have something to say. Lawrence Summers, who served as Bill Clinton's treasury secretary, rounded up four other former treasury secretaries to write an op-ed for the New York Times called "Five Former Treasury Secretaries: Our Democracy Is Under Siege." We know we certainly care what Janet Yellen has to say about DOGE cleaning house.
Janet "Inflation is Transitory" Yellen doesn't know her fat ass from a hole in the ground.
Lawrence H. Summers (@LHSummers) ~ I join Treasury Secretaries Rubin, Geithner, Lew and Yellen in writing this @nytopinion guest essay because we are alarmed about the risks of arbitrary and capricious political control of federal payments, which would be unlawful and corrosive to our democracy.
Summers, Rubin, Geithner, Lew & Yellen - Treasury Secretaries under Clinton, Obama & Biden. So, they were absolutely complicit in the theft of American taxpayer funds for the corrupt benefit of Democrats and their Marxist causes. Nah, that's the pot calling the kettle black.
And as for "arbitrary and capricious political control of federal payments" ... well ... you are perfectly describing what was done under the Clinton, Obama & Biden administrations.
Elon Musk was not impressed.
Harry Bōlz (@elonmusk) ~ Listen Larry, we need to stop government spending like a drunken sailor on fraud & waste or America is gonna go bankrupt.
That does mean a lot of grifters will lose their grift and complain loudly about it.
Too bad. Deal with it.
Paul A. Szypula (@Bubblebathgirl) ~ The biggest fraudsters are the people complaining the most.
Sassafrass84 (@Sassafrass_84) ~ They really don't like their grift being taken away from them. Those who scream the loudest often have something to hide.
Wall Street Apes (@WallStreetApes) ~ Everyone complaining about the money laundering spigot being turned off are involved in the money laundering and stealing from us. These are all criminals exposing themselves. They should all be investigated.
Juanita Broaddrick (@atensnut) ~ Those that scream the loudest are suspect in committing the biggest frauds ... and that includes Larry.
Gunther Eagleman™ (@GuntherEagleman) ~ Their screams are like music to my ears. Keep them screaming.
Pro Deo et Ecclesia (@RBishop957203) ~ As a drunken sailor, I take offense. At least we stopped spending OUR money when we ran out and didn't spend others.
Okay, okay ... how 'bout we quit using the term "drunken sailor" and start using the term "drunken Marine," instead???
They're going with the "it's the end of democracy" line if DOGE gets a look at the Treasury's books. Everything is the end of democracy.
Well ... the Democrats' definition of "democracy," anyway ... which is the State (and everyone who controls it) wins and the People lose.
RightTheWrongs! (@LPSATX) ~ “Listen Larry” has a ring to it like, “I don’t really care, Margaret.” 😂
