Opinion and Commentary By Donna A. Westfall – February 11, 2025
Known as the Dept of Government Efficiency I prefer to call Elon Musk’s team of genius youngsters the DEMOLITION DERBY.
How long have we, the American taxpaying public, waited to see if anyone would or could get our government under financial control? We’re fast approaching 250 years as a nation, yet last year if Trump didn’t win I was resigned to loosing our country to fools and idiots and need I say it, thieves and fraudsters.
Trump learned a lot from his first term in office as #45. Now with hindsight he has the knowledge and experience to appoint and surround himself with people who know how to get a job done.
First there’s Elon Musk who has accepted the task of checking how money is spent in most of our enormous and ever growing larger bureaucratic agencies. He’s got help. Some young genuises:
Akash Bobba, 21
Edward Coristine, 19
Luke Farritor, 23
Gautier Cole Killian, 24
Gavin Kliger, 25 and
Ethan Shaotran, 22
Now that you have their names, you can do your own homework and find out why they were chosen by Elon.
When I learned how old they were, I was pretty astounded. Then I saw article after article showing the ages of the framers of our country and constitution. More than a dozen signers of the Declaration of Independence were 35 or younger.
James Monroe, 18
Aaron Burr, 20
Alexander Hamilton, 21
James Madison, 25
I sincerely hope that our young people are inspired to emulate these young men. It’s time our youngsters got their heads out of their you know what and learned to love learning and achieving. We can’t ultimately succeed as a nation if our reading and math scores for public education rate us at dead bottom of the list out of 40 nations.
At this point, I checked the national debt clock. We’re at $36,219,419,467,416! Go to this website if you want to check it out: https://www.pgpf.org/national-debt-clock/. That’s $106,116 for every person in America.
I just wonder if anyone will be creating a “reduce the national debt clock” so we can check in every week or every day or even hour by hour to see how that enormous debt can be reduced and the timeline for doing so.
Thanks to Trump for appointing Elon Musk. Thanks to Musk for taking this task on. I do believe they will have the thanks of a grateful nation if the Democrats and the Judges stop stepping on their toes.
