Elon Musk and Trump have had a soap opera-like breakup over Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill, and it is sad for millions of us to watch. It’s like a high school breakup, but with more serious repercussions. Peter Thiel, who was the co-founder of PayPal with Elon, said that he spoke to him recently and that Elon has lost all belief in everything. This thing with DOGE, Peter said, really depressed Elon. Peter said Elon’s entire life’s work was to go to Mars, and now he told Peter he doesn’t want to go to Mars.

Musk told Peter, “Why bring a corrupt and woke people to Mars, asking what’s the use of it?” Trying to save the country from bankruptcy, and then watching the government itself, in its entirety, destroy every bit of work he did with DOGE, just broke Elon. He’s so disillusioned that the government won’t stop the out-of-control spending. I totally understand that, and a lot of people are disheartened.

Those of us that are the original people from the Tea Party and gave a damn about where the money went and what was going on with the money, are devasted. So, if you were really into what Elon was doing, you’re depressed knowing that that was the only time in your lifetime we would have ever been able to get control of our government, and now we realize we will never have control. I don’t speak for the Tea Party, but I bet many agree with me.

At the same time, the government announced that they had arrested hundreds of people who were all foreigners from other countries who were scamming Medicare. Just think about it; all of the money that goes to Medicare is just one open slush fund for a bunch of Russians and other people. These foreigners opened up medical supply companies all over America and sent in false invoices to Medicare for God knows how long, bilking it for hundreds of billions of dollars.

People from other countries just sucked on the American taxpayer’s tit, at the same time our government constantly telling us you know these entitlements they’re going to destroy us. Politicians are always complaining about entitlements, blah blah blah; in the meanwhile, they’re not even watching the entitlements, because they’re being robbed out the back door. Hundreds of billions of dollars go to foreigners for Medicare, and our country tells us, Hey man, we’ve got to cut back on entitlements. Elon is decimated mentally, and so are millions of people, including me.
