Trump Is in One of His Crazy Moods, Goes on ALL-CAPS Posting Spree and Gives Elon Musk MORE Power

By

Donald Trump wants Elon Musk to step on the gas when it comes to slashing government spending. In a recent TruthSocial post, Trump praised Musk’s efforts with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) but said he’d like to see him “get more aggressive.”

In all-caps Trump raged, “ELON IS DOING A GREAT JOB, BUT I WOULD LIKE TO SEE HIM GET MORE AGGRESSIVE. REMEMBER, WE HAVE A COUNTRY TO SAVE, BUT ULTIMATELY, TO MAKE GREATER THAN EVER BEFORE. MAGA!”

Musk, never one to back down from a challenge, responded swiftly. He announced that all federal employees would soon receive an email asking them to list their accomplishments from the past week—no response would be considered a resignation. Bold move.

First Musk kissed the ring:

Elon then tweeted, “Consistent with President Donald Trump’s instructions, all federal employees will shortly receive an email requesting to understand what they got done last week.Failure to respond will be taken as a resignation.”

Since its launch, DOGE has aimed to cut at least $1 trillion from the federal budget, with Musk hinting that even $2 trillion might be possible. Within weeks, the department has implemented layoffs and buyouts, reportedly saving taxpayers around $55 billion. But not without hiccups—some agencies have faced chaotic downsizing and financial miscalculations.

One particularly interesting proposal on the table is a “DOGE dividend.” The idea? Give 20% of the savings directly back to taxpayers, potentially handing out $5,000 checks to American households. Another 20% would go toward reducing national debt. Congress, however, isn’t entirely sold, with Speaker Mike Johnson expressing concerns about where the money should go.

Despite the controversy, Musk remains committed to reshaping federal spending, and Trump is clearly eager to see faster results. As these aggressive cuts continue, the big question remains: will these drastic changes shrink government waste or create bigger problems down the road? Either way, Americans are in for a wild ride.

Trump wasn’t done of course. He had to attack MSNBC, because they tell the truth about what he’s doing and how he’s trying to destroy our country. He said, “MSNBC, COMMONLY KNOWN AS MSDNC, IS A THREAT TO OUR DEMOCRACY. SUCH LYING AND MISREPRESENTATION. BAD PEOPLE AT THE TOP!”

He also announced our southern border is closed:

People were most disturbed about Trump’s post about Elon, take a look:

Interesting thing for the President to say about a person who, according the government’s lawyers, “has no actual or formal authority to make government decisions himself” and “only has the ability to advise the President, or communicate the President’s directives.”
