    🤣.

  2. You voted for it, you got it.

    Typical Gainesville protestor… doesn’t realize Musk is a capitalist.
    Gainesville voters, still the intelligence of a box of rocks.

    Thanks Jake, sums up most liberals of late. They are the ones prone to violence and true disrespect for authority. I don’t recall the conservative masses promoting and condoning violent acts when Obama was elected.

    So true

    I recognize her. She drives a Prius with leftest stickers plastered all over the trunk.

    Scene location could be the plaza of the Americas!

    So Jake is for eliminating Congress and being ruled by whoever gives the winning candidate the most money. George Soros will be interested in that, though he didn’t get the government start up money and contracts Elmo got.

    That’s a real person I just seen her on tv 20 WCJB imagine that they can’t report on any real news but Trumps EO on paper straws got them out in the field. Also interesting if you google her she use to the tree lady for the city. Hmm what a coincidence it’s almost like they got hippies on speed dial at WCJB…. Also this is literally everywoman that goes to the HIPP or the Ballet at the Phillips Center. If you notice the tree lady mentions our favorite GSSR saying “Where Culture Meets Nature”. I guess “Zero Drug Tolerance” will never be a priority in the GSSR. As long as they got trees, The Theatre and Ballet that’s they need it’s a prefect utopian society in the GSSR.

    Sexist, ageist, homophobic, AND moronic, all in one cartoon. Jerky Jake’s outdone himself…

    • Walk like an Eastsider

      Baloney

      LOL. I’m SURE the liberals and dems are complete angels depicting their views. Jake strives to hit all of the ‘…ist’ and ‘…phobe’ descriptions and we love it.

      • Trisha Ingle

        Just like Jesus!

    • This may work...

      I don’t understand how one can call it sexist.
      There’s no physical identifiers depicted.

    👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

    is it supposed to be funny or no?

  11. Trum

    The Democrats or losing their slush funds, this is how a politician gets into office at $200,000 Per year and leaves office with 50,000,000.

    5 inspector generals who were investigating Musk’s companies and their government contracts were fired by Trump. You all are pathetic sheep being taken to the cleaners for another rich man’s tax cut and are applauding it.

    “At the Department of Agriculture, where the inspector general’s office was probing alleged animal abuse at Musk’s brain implant company Neuralink, inspector general and 22-year USDA veteran Phyllis Fong was escorted out of her office by security guards last Monday. Department of Defense Inspector General Robert Storch was fired just months after he reportedly opened a review into repeated failures by Musk and his rocket company SpaceX to properly disclose their contact with foreign leaders.

    The Department of Transportation, which oversees the National Transportation Safety Board, had its inspector general fired as safety regulators oversaw several open probes into Tesla, Musk’s electrical vehicle company, over its remote and self-driving vehicles. The same goes for the Environmental Protection Agency, where investigators have settled multiple lawsuits with Tesla in recent years over Clean Air Act and hazardous waste law violations.

    Trump also fired the inspector general at the Department of Labor, which oversees the National Labor Relations Board. The board has 17 open investigations against Musk’s companies Tesla and SpaceX for alleged unfair labor practices, safety violations, and discriminatory work practices.

    Musk’s tangled web of open investigations is further complicated by his lucrative business arrangements with the federal government. Altogether, Musk’s companies were awarded $3 billion across nearly 100 different contracts in 2023 — and account for at least $15.4 billion in government funding in the past decade. ..”

    • You voted for it, you got it.

      Which administration awarded those contracts?

      Inquiring minds would like to know.

      • Jazzman

        Irrelevant. The contracts are not the issue, the illegal firing of inspector generals by the guy they have been inspecting is.

        Sheep are less gullible.

  13. Jazzman

    Trump has fired 5 inspector generals – he can’t legally do that without Congressional review – who have or are investigating Musk companies engaged in federal contracts. You sheep are applauding this?

    • Inspector General Walpin's Revenge

      So what! Obama did it, get over it. Elections have consequences.

      • Jazzman

        In a constitutional democracy, overthrowing the government by a private citizen is not supposed to be one of the consequences, or are you new to America. We don’t do that here.

        Musk – with Trump’s lawyers – is presently trying to get a judge to rule that he can have read/write access o the Treasury Department. The US Archives Department has been cleaned out – it is traditionally a non-controversial non-partisan office – and awaits Trump loyalist appointees.

        I don’t understand how this hyper partisan BS and replacing of merit based hires of civil service positions by Trump cronies can be applauded. You get that he won’t be in office forever and it’s likely Democrats will win back the presidency soon, even if not in 4 years (they’ve won every popular vote but 2 since 1992) and you will not want them packing the system with their yes men.

    Wow. A bunch of boomers and dudebros with the IQ of a turnip jump to defend a sexist, ageist, homophobic cartoon. How surprising.

      You forgot ableist because liberalism is a mental disability

    • Mr. Peabody

      It’s so true, though. Where were the scores of UF students protesting? You guys are walking anachronisms. Maybe bring a dinosaur or two from the Florida Museum.

    Jake: you’re beautiful…Kaboom!💥

    You need to do one of the commissioners losing their sh!t over Trumps executive order banning paper straws..
