You’re probably hearing about Elon Musk and his high school grad “programmers” taking over the federal treasury.

Guess who helped him do that?

Tim Kaine and Mark Warner.

Musk and his Orwellian “Department of Government Efficiency” were given access to sensitive files and systems within the Treasury Department by the new Treasury Secretary, Scott Bessent.

Bessent was confirmed by a 68-29 vote in the U.S. Senate on Jan. 27, with 16 Democrats voting in favor of the confirmation.

Among those 16: Kaine and Warner.

Fu——-.

Neither is bragging about it, which is a way of saying, they didn’t comment on why they voted the way they did, maybe because they’re trying to avoid Google searches leading you to statements that they’d regret.

I’m here to help on that.

They should have immediately regretted being on board with anything Trumpian, but there’s a reason I’ve taken to calling these guys Vichy Democrats.

The guy that they helped put into office almost immediately gave the keys to the federal treasury to an unelected illegal immigrant Nazi billionaire named Elon Musk.

Good work, fellas.

Go along to get along, indeed.
