It’s strange; it’s just strange. According to the Washington Post (Bezos) and New York Post (Murdoch), President Trump’s incoming chief of staff, Susie Wiles is reminding all of the Trump nominees not to post anything on social media.
Why?
No, seriously; why the reminder?
According to information relayed by a ‘source’ inside the transition team, this warning is not connected to the recent blowup controversy over immigration and H1B visas. So why the reminder?
As reported, the warning from Wiles does not apply to the DOGE team, Ramaswamy and/or Elon Musk, or to any of the Czars (David Sacks) and appointees who do not need Senate confirmation. The warning only applies to those who are going through the confirmation process. But again, the timing… why?
The nominees Wiles notes in her admonishment, have not been posting on social media. So, what triggered the reminder that says, “no member of the incoming administration or Transition speaks for the United States or the President-elect himself.” It’s odd. The only issue that has erupted where that concern would be applicable are the issues around immigration and H1B visas. Yet the source on the transition team says Wiles was not speaking about that issue.
I consider myself a person with attune Spidey senses. Pretending just doesn’t work for me. When the principal officer says, “no member of the incoming administration or transition speaks for POTUS”, and then an anonymous transition person quickly says Wiles is not talking about team DOGE, my suspicions are that Wiles’s reminder was triggered specifically because of the dangerous controversy, and the anonymous transition team member is obfuscating the reason behind the warning.
In essence, I suspect the warning really is about what the Occam’s Razor indicates it would be about. As always, I could be wrong; but I’d be willing to wager on this one.
NY Post – President-elect Donald Trump’s chief of staff Susie Wiles sent a message Sunday ordering nominees to refrain from any posting on social media as Senate confirmation hearings are scheduled to start next week.
“While this instruction has been delivered previously, I am reiterating that no member of the incoming administration or Transition speaks for the United States or the President-elect himself,” Wiles wrote in a memo obtained by The Post.
“Accordingly, all intended nominees should refrain from any public social media posts without prior approval of the incoming White House counsel,” she said in the Dec. 29 missive.
The first-ever female chief of staff, nicknamed the “Ice Maiden,” also noted that she appreciates “how enthusiastic everyone is” about joining the second Trump term in her otherwise frank directive.
[…] The Wiles memo, according to a Trump transition source, is not in response to the recent social media ruckus caused by Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) chairs Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy over H-1B visas that had MAGA world spinning.
DOGE is not an official entity, despite its name, and does not need Senate confirmation, meaning the tech moguls are free to convey their opinions online. (read more)
For many, this immigration/H1B issue is critical.
I completely understand and support their concern for many reasons.
Elon Musk (et al) has made himself a wedge.
If you do not support Musk, you are anti-MAGA.
What’s missing in this new definition of MAGA? President Donald J Trump.
Maybe Wiles can see it also.
The gaslighting, the demand to ignore what you witness with your own eyes, is stunning. Yet the shouts are very familiar in abusive relationships.
I’ve now seen mountains of evidence of a major criminal enterprise centered around H1B and student visas, and Indian corruption.
Enough to know that two men trying to pretend they don’t understand what this issue is all about, and even making threats in support of continuance of the fraud, belong nowhere near the POTUS.
The student visas should be suspended until the fraud can be cleaned up.
The H1B visas never served a good purpose from the get-go and that should be done away with on Day One.
They aren’t about “the best and the brightest”, they NEVER were, and Vivek and Elon know it. They are both oily con men.
They never belonged near the POTUS in the first place. IMO Musk is a handler of sorts, pushing Trump (gently) in the direction the cabal wants him to go. Vivek is just a glory seeker looking for a way into the Whit House, not sure whose behind him at this point.
What surprises me is that this issue has now become so prominent. I do NOT recall any discussion by sundance or any or the right wing sites, like RedState, Federalist, Hot Air or even American Thinker before the last two weeks. What caused this issue to become so prominent so suddenly?
Susie Wiles admonition makes sense; don’t give the Left any targets. No matter what Pete Hegseth or Kash Patel or even RFKJr says, it will be attacked. Musk Ramasawmy and Sacks are taking all the flak right now distracting the Left from its usual baseless, tendentious and hyperbolic attacks.
It suddenly became prominent because of objections over an appointment made by President Trump on December 22, of a pro-Twitter censorship pro-raising the H1B cap Indian man to assist with AI.
Over Christmas, Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy decided to revile and threaten people who were critical of or even talked about the issue. They made a sacred cow out of the corrupt H1B program.
David Sacks got in on the act with some name-calling of his own, and also tried to censor any discussion by claiming we were stupidly falling for a psy-op meant to divide MAGA.
What those nominees have been saying is on record, and they have already been attacked and will continue to be attacked.
“Elon Musk has made himself a wedge”. Let’s rephrase this: Elon Musk was allowed to make himself a wedge along with his pal Vivek. Elon needs his butt kicked out of Mar a Logo and go find himself another grift.
I would love to see a million folks dump X.
His profane rant was hateful and ridiculous.
Asperger’s, or not,
grow up!
Let Musk experience the effects of censorship.
‘His profane rant was hateful and ridiculous.’
It was worse than that. THIS, is the image of the incoming Trump admin projected to the world:
“Go F yourself in the face” (and threat).
Musk should be pushed out of the Trump cadre immediately.

Said this on the first day after I read it. He threatened to remove the “fools” from the Republican party and I said bring it on Musk we could wreck X in a week, and we should. If every patriotic American exited that platform it would be gone. And we should after his violent, defamatory rhetoric. He was speaking from the heart, this is how really thinks of the patriotic people of America. Time to get rid of him. Maybe the cabal, his handlers, will see the handwriting on the wall and remove him from his job. Or maybe Trump will wake up and remove him from his job. One can only hope.
Thank you a million times over!
Back in the day when you nicknamed somebody “Wedge” it was an insult.
It was shorthand for “Wedge: The simplest tool known to primitive man.”
Intepirdine is a drug that effects the brain it right thought connect it with nurolink and you have taken Free Will from the human.
Vivek took thru a BS. White paper his mommy wrote Interpirdine making his millions.
Elon is the face of nurolink a device implanted into the human mind allowing direct connectivity with the internet.
perhaps Musk was just getting out ahead of some news
Report: Musk’s Tesla Replaced Laid Off Americans with Foreign Workers on H-1B Visas
Elon hasn’t assimilated very well in my opinion. Most first-generation immigrants are quite aware of the role the native population played in creating what is now their new home. Most express their gratitude and tread carefully, cognizant of being newcomers. His behavior is really quite unseemly and frankly, repugnant.
He got caught lying about the not-so-special nature of the H1B positions and rightly lost credibility as a result.
No Elon, America is not your oyster. Nor your vending machine nor your ashtray. Elon is as badly assimilated as the second generation Bill Kristol.
As for Vivek, we all know there is a kernel of truth in his remarks. But there are really two cultures: the popular culture which is imposed top-down. (The culture Vivek so glibly drew upon in his rapping gag during primaries.) And then there is the bottom-up culture upon which generations built their families, towns, and this nation. This is the native culture that no immigrant masters fresh off the boat.
When Elon and Vivek are sufficiently acculturated, they can lecture us. Acquiring stuff and manipulating the system requires no culture – animals can do that.
I don’t think either one should be allowed to be here long enough to “sufficiently acculturate”.
Tesla replaced laid off US workers with foreign workers using H-1B visas that Musk want to increase

Regarding Elon’s quest for Mars, from whom is he going to get the money to fund the initiative?
I think I see a pattern here:
But Joshua had commanded the army, “Do not give a war cry, do not raise your voices, do not say a word until the day I tell you to shout. Then shout!”11 So he had the ark of the Lord carried around the city, circling it once. Then the army returned to camp and spent the night there.12 Joshua got up early the next morning and the priests took up the ark of the Lord. 13 The seven priests carrying the seven trumpets went forward, marching before the ark of the Lord and blowing the trumpets. The armed men went ahead of them and the rear guard followed the ark of the Lord, while the trumpets kept sounding. 14 So on the second day they marched around the city once and returned to the camp. They did this for six days.
15 On the seventh day, they got up at daybreak and marched around the city seven times in the same manner, except that on that day they circled the city seven times. 16 The seventh time around, when the priests sounded the trumpet blast, Joshua commanded the army, “Shout! For the Lord has given you the city!…..20 When the trumpets sounded, the army shouted, and at the sound of the trumpet, when the men gave a loud shout, the wall collapsed; so everyone charged straight in, and they took the city.
Anyone else see Antichrist qualities in Elon or is it just me?
Yes, but I don’t think he or the timing fits the biblical narrative.
I agree. Interesting that he displays qualities and is well positioned for that roll.
Yes, I thought the same thing the other day lol. And I don’t usually ascribe that moniker to people.
This is the first time I’ve ever made such a public statement about anyone. Note that I’m not saying he IS Antichrist but he certainly is an interesting character.
He has high functioning autism. That undoubtedly fed into the indiscreet way he sometimes expresses himself; social cues don’t come naturally to him, he is a bit tone deaf in that area. We all have our gifts and that’s not one that God gave Elon Musk.
Also, the antichrist won’t care about women or children, kind of like Yuval Harari, the globalist “prophet” who is gay, or many of the childless leaders of European nations like Merkel and Macron. Daniel 11:37: “Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god; for he shall magnify himself above all.” Musk definitely doesn’t fit into that mold.
Guess I’m not a great detective but I knew nothing about S. Wiles.
After reading 5 or 6 comments when she was announced as COS, I was thinking what the fudge.
