    @SamFisher This is pretty funny.

    Now that Musk doesn't have to worry about the Biden administration holding back SpaceX contracts, he can tell California to **** off. Great news BTW! This should free up a lot of regulatory issues.

    X is next.

    Biden tweets instead of talks, as Elon Musk seizes on chaotic election

    By Cat Zakrzewski, Naomi Nix and Trisha Thadani

    President Biden bypassed traditional media in making his stunning announcement that he won’t be on the 2024 ticket, instead posting a letter on X. Elon Musk immediately took a victory lap.

    “White House aides learned Biden was dropping out by reading X,” tweeted the billionaire social network owner. In a series of further posts in the hours after Biden’s announcement, Musk stressed the social network’s role as a direct channel to convey world events more nimbly than cable news and news sites.

    This is an excerpt from a full story.

    Vinod is a strange cat. Spent many hours with him. Wouldn't trust him.

    There's also that thing where he was trying to annex a public beach as his private beach.

    Does anyone know if Reed Hastings or Reid Hoffman or Donald Trump or the other people he tagged replied to his (Elons) thirsty tweets or did they just ignore him

    (I don't have a tweet account so I can't check)

    I don't know, maybe Reid could check while on Epstein Island, where he was a very frequent visitor?

    Elon Musk’s transgender daughter, Vivian Wilson, speaks in first interview (nbcnews.com)

    July 25, 2024, 6:30 PM CDT
    By David Ingram


    Vivian Jenna Wilson, the transgender daughter of Elon Musk, said Thursday in her first interview that he was an absent father who was cruel to her as a child for being queer and feminine.

    Wilson, 20, in an exclusive interview with NBC News, responded to comments Musk made Monday about her and her transgender identity. On social media and in an interview posted online, Musk said she was “not a girl” and was figuratively “dead,” and he alleged that he had been “tricked” into authorizing trans-related medical treatment for her when she was 16.

    Wilson said that Musk hadn’t been tricked and that, after initially having hesitated, he knew what he was doing when he agreed to her treatment, which required consent from her parents.

    Musk’s recent statements crossed a line, she said.

    “I think he was under the assumption that I wasn’t going to say anything and I would just let this go unchallenged,” Wilson said in a phone interview. “Which I’m not going to do, because if you’re going to lie about me, like, blatantly to an audience of millions, I’m not just gonna let that slide.”

    Wilson said that, for as long as she could remember, Musk hasn’t been a supportive father. She said he was rarely present in her life, leaving her and her siblings to be cared for by their mother or by nannies even though Musk had joint custody, and she said Musk berated her when he was present.

    “He was cold,” she said. “He’s very quick to anger. He is uncaring and narcissistic.”

    Wilson said that, when she was a child, Musk would harass her for exhibiting feminine traits and pressure her to appear more masculine, including by pushing her to deepen her voice as early as elementary school.

    “I was in fourth grade. We went on this road trip that I didn’t know was actually just an advertisement for one of the cars — I don’t remember which one — and he was constantly yelling at me viciously because my voice was too high,” she said. “It was cruel.”

    Remember when Musk criticized Twitter for being biased and partisan?

    Elon is a rich weird clown. He is a parody of the show Silicon Valley.

    While you are clutching your pearls, just remember that the Democrats (mainly Obama) used the US intel agencies and foreign intel agencies to create a fake Russian collusion scandal that was used to investigate and imprison Republicans for years. But go on with your outrage over a fake video! LOL Democrats are always guilty of doing far worse that what they accuse Republicans of.
