Swampy no drainey
Kelly Loeffler - Small business administrator - 1.1 billion
Bit of an oxymoron, no?
I can feel the wealth trickling down already.
2016 promise: drain the swamp (not fulfilled)
2024 promise: drown in swamp (pre-fulfilled)
Seeing as politics is always a bunch of self serving in-crowd of rich folks, I'd really like to see this for the previous few presidents to know if this is a unique thing to Trump.
I'm too lazy to keep looking, but here's a small sampling. Ambassador positions to friendly countries tend to go to friends/donors and not worth comparing. DOGE can't be compared, as it doesn't exist. Figures are whatever I found at the top of google, not adjusted for inflation or value the years they were in office. Big enough gap that it didn't matter. Maybe someone else can check Bush?
2013 Obama - $6M
- Secretary of Commerce - Penny Pritzker - $3.6B
- Secretary of Education - Arne Duncan - $4.8M
- Secretary of Interior - Ken Salazar - $2M
- Small Business Administrator - Karen G Mills - "At least" $705,000
- NASA Administrator - Charles F Bolden - "At least" $537,000
Thanks for looking into what I'm clearly too lazy to do! A quick lazy Internet search shows that Biden's cabinet appears to be mostly "only" millionaires according to this.
That article also compares Biden's to Trump's previous cabinet. And references Obama's. I would like to note that framing this all as "measly millionaire" is so disconnected from the remainder of America.
this is a really coooool list you got here.
I present - the swamp.
How many on this list were voted for? Only one you say....
Wow look at all the people totally qualified to represent the common citizen!
I'd also be interested in a chart like this that not only shows net worth now, but the net worth of their parents when they were born. This kind of wealth tends to ultimately require generational wealth. I'd wager most if not all were also nepo-babies.
The idea that we should idolize the rich because "if you work hard, you might get rich too" is abhorrent Reaganite nonsense.
Edit: this chart floating around some other communities comes close.

I download most of the cool guides but no way do I want to look these ugly people.
Funny how doge has co-chiefs, would one person not be more efficient?
If you could get hundreds of millions of dollars for someone in exchange for a do-nothing-ego-stroking title, would you do it?
I mean, I don't know you but I assume you're too decent to be a politician.
it doesn't exist
Trump is appointing and he’s a little suspicious of disloyalty so it’s probably something to do with his want of a check on or back up plan for Elon.
Billionaires OBVIOUSLY will use this Opportunity to ENRICH their Workers as they are Known to Do. After all NO ONE gets to be a Billionaire without COMPASSION and RESPECT for the Working Class!
Clearly they all completely understand and empathise with the average American.
Sooooo many people voted for this….. 🤮🤮🤮
I'm pretty sure none of them have ever lifted a box or know from which end to hold a broom.
Never seen a broom. Those are kept in the closet of the help.
Elon carried a toilet, unfortunately it was a new one.
How much could a house cost? $10?
Is this a menu?
And a bingo card.
Unrelated: drones make a great Christmas gift for that recently laid off, benefits denied, recently diagnosed with a disease caused by known carcinogens in their everything, injured at work, under paid and exploited person you know.
Get em before they're deemed a safety hazard and pulled from shelves.
A hit list.
🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽
These are exactly the kind of people I want together in a room. Fish in a barrel
Yeah, maybe they should host an investors conference.
I think something like that is being scheduled for Jan 20th.... although I'm free on the 6th too.
Pray for a small meteor
Or a really big one
I don't see Putin anywhere...
He was cropped off the top of the image.
It's a collection game.

"Small business administrator - $1.1 billion"
huh
Chris wright is as poor to Elon and most Americans are to Chris wright.
$300b vs $171m vs $50k-$300k
Fucking wild
The difference between Chris Wright at 171m and Elon at 300b is about 300b.
Elon bought his presidency for $134m. Adds more perspective on the other guy’s wealth.
More like $277 million overall and $260 million for the Don.

Seems like he got a really good deal given that he and his buddy Jared will milk the NASA budget dry and he'll be able to reap back billions more than that for Tesla too.
@[email protected] the picture got deleted
thanks, I re uploaded it
You are welcome!
'..by the people, for the people'
This new hitman game is unhinged. First mission you off a healthcare CEO and ride of on a bike, that's funny. But making billionaires and politicians the same people is just lazy writing.
true working class heroes, every one. /s
Fucked up
Yeah, couldn't get a picture of Steven Feinberg.
Real salt of the earth
The true cess of the pool.
Put a little bag of cess in the mailbox, get them in a little trouble. Unforgivable.
well, they're the salt you use to salt the earth, so yeah.
Salt as in potassium cyanide
The common clay of the midwest
Damn, that looks like a swamp
So much for people still believing his drain-the-swamp-rhetoric.
Hell, this guy thought the swamp was a threatened habitat, and decided to repopulate it with additional species.
Oh they believe the hell out if it, I assure you.
Kelly loeffler, small business administrator. 1.1 billion??? What the fuck is the scale here.
Mr Feinberg read the room, going for that incognito look in the current hostile climate
Yeah I don't get why the creator didn't post his pic?
There's no need to comment on someone's color. Grey lives matter too.
These numbers will double soon.
Do you think they go around calling Dr Oz a poor piece of shit?
It will be interesting to look at these values in a year's time. Also to see who falls out of favour and isn't in the inner circle anymore.
Yes, the “efficiency” part has nothing to do with American working class and everything to do with how fast and efficient they can be in going unfettered and in lining their pockets.
That’s the real crappy part about deregulation. A lot of it sprang up to keep us safe from people like these selling bad food, contaminating water supplies, not paying overtime, not keeping your healthcare private, among other things.
donnie isn't worth 5b, remember his ny trial?
He might be now, from Truth Social stock. He was lying about being a billionaire before.
Serving their own interests, not yours.
Buh buh buh the dumbercrats are for "they / them" surely Trump gonna fix everything Joe Bidden broke
/S
Men of the people!
That poor 100 millionaire.
Alright team, drain the swamp!
Pumping feces into the swamp is just his roundabout way of draining it.
“To drain the swamp, you first must flood the swamp”
"Crypto czar" has big "tread me harder daddy" vibes.
❌
I bet they call him "Chris Light" when they meet up, and jokingly pay for his drinks.
I wonder if they make Chris Wright wear the gimp costume every cabinet meeting or just for special occasions?
DRAIN THE SWAMP! DRAIN THE SWAMP! DRAIN THE SW-
Take a moment to enjoy your tax dollars at least remaining onshore, American citizens.
Insane
Gee. I sorta thought trump was rich but his net worth seems so small in this group. I mean laughably small.
It's been said for a long time that Trump only tells people he's a billionaire. He's gone bankrupt in so many businesses. If he had just put the money he inherited from his father into an index fund he'd be vastly more wealthy.
But now with Truth Social gone public through a corporate front, he is an actual multi-billionaire, the way net worth is measured.
