Elon MUSK - HEAD OF

Well said Maw and better put than I could’ve done.
“Sauce for the goose” springs to mind.

Despite all the high-minded reasoning, the turn against X is down to one thing really. Namely, control.

Twitter, when it was Twitter, was theirs. It was the platform beloved by journalists and politicians, with policies that protected their brittle sensibilities; the major platform mad enough to permanently suspend a sitting US president, purely because America’s “wine moms” demanded it.

Musk changed all that. He allowed a broader swathe of opinion, including “deplorable”, pro-Trump opinion, to be expressed on X. They’ve never forgiven him for it.

I refuse to use x so here is the same on YouTube in case anybody else feels the same (you fellow wokerati followers!)

this is a real eye opener.

Statesmanship? That is too funny. 🤣

Tomatoes is a Reform UK Ltd voter.

I’m not sure what the difference is between Elon Musk and Lord Alli, he of the Downing Street pass.
Lord Alli has donated thousands to various Labour politicians over the years. He gave both Andy Burnham and Liz Kendall £26,500 towards their party leadership bids in 2015 and £10,000 to Owen Smith the following year.
He became Sir Keir Starmer's chief campaign fundraiser in 2022 but has given him more than £39,000 in gifts since the previous general election in 2019.
Sky News' Westminster Accounts revealed the peer has donated almost £19,000 in luxury workwear and glasses to the prime minister and his wife so far this year.
He spent a similar sum on accommodation and other "private office costs" for him during the election campaign, accounts show.
According to the register of MPs' interest, Lord Alli has given £14,000 to Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson for "work events".
He also let deputy leader Angela Rayner stay at his New York home for New Year's Eve and gave her £2,230 in donations for clothes.

Statesmanship? That is too funny. 🤣

This is worth a look if you have a few mins to spare. It outlines Elon Musk’s involvement in the run up to the election. It made my blood run cold. x.com/ByDonkeys/status/1855167804808331477

Yes. Whatever accusations of malfeasance were thrown by Trump appear to have been mere projections of how he and Musk were rigging it all.

Sour grapes make terrible whine.

I am haring via BlueSky reports of trouble in paradise. I also wonder how Melania is getting on with her co-first lady Elonia.

"Musk has been so aggressive in pushing his views about Trump’s second term that he’s stepping on the toes of Trump’s transition team and may be overstaying his welcome at Mar-a-Lago, according to two people familiar with the transition who have spent time at the Palm Beach, Florida, resort over the past week.

The sources said that Musk’s near-constant presence at Mar-a-Lago in the week since Election Day had begun to wear on people who’ve been in Trump’s inner circle longer than the tech billionaire and who see him as overstepping his role in the transition. The sources spoke on condition of anonymity because they’re not authorized to speak publicly.

“He’s behaving as if he’s a co-president and making sure everyone knows it,” one of the people said of Musk.

“And he’s sure taking lots of credit for the president’s victory. Bragging about America PAC and X to anyone who will listen. He’s trying to make President Trump feel indebted to him. And the president is indebted to no one,” this person added."

He’s taken on someone who boasts about shooting her dog and a goat. And is going to stop schools indoctrinating children with ‘Marxist’ propaganda and replace it with Trump propaganda instead.

Oh my days, a career as a comedian surely beckons!

“The President-elect has shut himself away at Mar-a-Lago to go through candidates’ profiles, and absolute loyalty is a prerequisite”

Good for Trump. No ‘Blob’ is going to hold him back from what he wants to achieve this time round. He’s had a term in office and no doubt learnt how to navigate better. He was voted in by a majority (sorry all you on here who don’t like him but hey that’s democracy) and they look to him now to Put America First. I quite envy them to be honest having such a patriot in charge of legislation. We here can only dream of such huge ambition and statesmanship being offered to us.

Let’s hope so, but not holding my breath.

Well I think he’ll do a great job.
