Purple-haired Democrat Rosa DeLauro, the top Democrat on the House Appropriations Committee. Think of that.
Crazed purple-haired Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro has become the latest Democrat to melt down over the influence of Elon Musk.
In a speech on the House floor on Thursday, the representative from Connecticut complained that Republicans are “scared” of Musk and that he is responsible for a possible government shutdown.
“They got scared, because ‘President Musk’ told them. ‘President Musk’ said, “Don’t do it. Don’t do it. Shut the government down.” Imagine!”
“What does he know about what people go through is when the government shuts down? Are his employees furloughed? Hell no. Is he furloughed? No. And when you shut the government down, people don’t get paid.”
“And maybe if none of us got paid if the government shut down, some people on the other side of the aisle would feel differently about where we’re going in this effort.”
“We had an agreement. But you know, this is not different from what we’ve experienced over the last year and a half or so.”

Musk, who is arguably the most influential person in American politics besides Donald Trump, was a vocal opponent of the proposed $1.7 trillion spending bill negotiated by the embattled Speaker of the House Rep. Mike Johnson (R-LA) and he urged lawmakers to vote against it.
As reported yesterday by The Gateway Pundit, the bill includes provisions such as a $69,000 annual pay increase for members of Congress, $900 million for a new football stadium in Washington, D.C., provisions to fund 12 new biolabs, 72 pages of “Pandemic Preparedness and Response” policy and continued funding of the pro-censorship Global Engagement Center (GEC).
“The more I learn, the more obvious it becomes that this spending bill is a crime,” Musk wrote on the X platform on Wednesday. “It even includes funding for the worst illegal censorship operation in the entire government (GEC)!!
“Any member of the House or Senate who votes for this outrageous spending bill deserves to be voted out in 2 years!”

Elon Musk did not shy away from the purple-haired lady’s attacks.
Musk responded to the attacks: “The crazy lady with the purple hair is the top House Dem in charge of spending taxpayer money!? “
Epic!
DeLauro is the face of the Democrat Party.
The crazy lady with the purple hair is the top House Dem in charge of spending taxpayer money!?
