Summary

Elon Musk, a Republican megadonor and close Trump ally, is reportedly set to have office space in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building near the West Wing.

Musk is expected to head the “Department of Government Efficiency,” aiming to reduce federal spending under Trump.

Critics question Musk’s influence, noting his frequent presence at key Trump meetings and events.

This move, if confirmed, would grant Musk continued access to Trump post-inauguration, sparking debate about the billionaire’s role in the administration despite holding no official government position.

      Wonder how duck guns do against drones?

      There are 10ga shotguns designed to shoot high brass loads to lead and take down fast moving waterfowl. Market hunters back in the day also had what were basically shot cannons they used.

      They’d have to be close in from the Ukrainian footage I’ve seen. Some of the drones could have been taken down by shotgun with a good shot.

      Higher drones would require flack, I guess.
