How long before the inevitable fallout between Musk and Trump?

Jeffrey Epstein is cool?

 

I’m fairly terrified of who it would report to at this point. Let’s work on Article II a bit before we throw something else to the Executive Branch.

 

lol

 

I generally don't expect Trump to make it to the end of his term

He might get one of those artificial hearts like Dick Cheney

Rocket River

 

we should start posting basketball memes in the D&D

 

Woke people are mad they got kicked in the nuts when they walked in the women’s bathroom

communist and woke people hate successful businesses
They love looting and shoplifting

 

And Severo too

 

I’m not going to take credit for Musk being part of the team

I’m going to take credit for telling all these dumb woke posters that it was going to happen

Elon wins
Kamala had to pay Oprah to support her

@Os Trigonum
@basso
@Space Ghost

 

Woke people who hate Musk asking how they can look more feminine...

 

Severo may very well have been one of those LatinX who voted against Kamala

Can you pay celebrities millions to appear at your rally and report it as an "event production" expense to the FEC?
by noreply@blogger.com (Ann Althouse)

I'm reading "Did Kamala Harris Pay Celebrities to Endorse Her? Oprah Winfrey Speaks Out" (Newsweek)(examining various claims, e.g. Beyoncé got $10 million just to walk up to the podium and say a few pro-Kamala words):

Nonprofit fact-checking website FactCheck.org said that a Harris campaign official told them the claim "is not true." PolitiFact also said that it had found "no evidence" for the claim and that Beyoncé's publicist told them it was "beyond ridiculous."

Newsweek reached out to the Harris campaign for comment via email outside of regular working hours. Newsweek also reached out to representatives for other celebrities who endorsed Harris and have been accused of being paid for it, including Beyoncé, Megan Thee Stallion, Lizzo, and Eminem, via email.

Some social media users pointed out that two payments to Winfrey's production company, Harpo Productions Inc, can be found under the Harris campaign's disbursements on the Federal Election Committee website. The payments, of $500,000 each, were made on October 15 and are marked as "event production."
​

"Marked as 'event production'"? I hope they didn't mismark anything! What was the "production" that cost a million dollars? Causing Oprah to appear onstage? The social media users are trying to help, but it looks as though they are calling attention to what might be a false statement to the FEC.

Wouldn't that be much worse than mislabeling the hush money paid to Stormy Daniels in private business records?

Tech billionaire Elon Musk was handed a major win Tuesday evening when President-elect Donald Trump announced that the Tesla and SpaceX CEO would co-lead a new “Department of Government Efficiency” with Vivek Ramaswamy.

The announcement reinforces the closeness that Musk has managed to achieve with Trump, even after the election. But for some people in Trump’s orbit, Musk’s presence has felt overbearing.


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.
