We have entered the out loud part of billionaire gangsters literally taking over the world or trying. Elon dreams of an authoritarian world where he can house his workers a la Foxconn. Honestly someone is going to star popping these malignant ghouls soon and Elon is a prime candidate. One special ops team and a MANDAP and no more X.
We now live in an overt oligarchy heading toward fascism. Although it’s always been an oligarchy behind the scenes IMO, you are right, they are now saying the quiet part out loud. They are also taking actions that were once done behind closed doors right out into the open.
David Frum: “If conservatives become convinced that they can not win democratically, they will not abandon conservatism. They will reject democracy.”
We are watching that happen. An oligarchy run by a fascist would be just fine with conservatives as they’re showing us every single day.
Frank Wilhoit: “Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition… There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.”
Laws clearly do not bind Trump, Thomas, Roberts, Alito or Musk and they’re done pretending that they do. They don’t even bother playing lip service to the idea that we have a government of laws, not of men.
I once had a Mexican friend tell me “I weep for my country” when talking about Mexican crime. Watching the Republican’s accelerating mockery of our laws, institutions and government I’m sorry to say that as an American I weep for mine.
This guy’s brains only spilled out because someone hit his ear. He hasn’t changed he’s still the same dickhead. He wants to lock up anyone who opposes him.
He feels “persecuted” because his crimes are catching up to him. Don’t fall for it he literally only cares about him self and surrounds himself with criminals and dickheads.
We don’t trust people under 21 to consume alcohol that affects you for a few hours. We should not allow kids 12 yrs old to make irrevocable decisions with lifelong, permanent impacts.
I’m always on the fence with these subpoena resistance cases.
On the one hand, it’s Twitter, Elon, and Epstein related. Fuck all of them.
On the other hand, I don’t think that businesses should just blindly turn over information because the DOJ managed to find a judge that would rubber stamp a subpoena. Obviously that’s not every subpoena, or even likely a large number of them in the grand scheme, but it happening even once is too much to take it at face value being justified.
This subpoena has nothing to do with the DOJ. This subpoena was issued as part of discovery in the civil defamation case between the two women in the article
Most likely what I think is happening here is X literally does not have the records that are being subpoenaed, because why keep records when you’re trying to destroy a business?
You seem to have a problem with reading comprehension buddy. Nothing in this entire thread is even remotely close to defending Epstein or his accomplices.
The closest it gets is demanding that the Constitutional rights of US citizens actually be acknowledged and defended instead of just allowing the government to ignore them because of some bullshit “think of the kids” excuse which is never about the kids, it’s always been about giving the police more excuses to arrest anyone they want. Usually those in the way of the rich and powerful, or a group they can then point to and classify as a criminal to justify treating them as less worthy of respect or basic rights.
That’s weird since I just got an email for a “payment due” on 8/15. It is so fucking exhausting to try to keep up with all the bajillion different “payment plans” and if you don’t choose the right one based on all the misinformation out there then fuck you, you don’t get the tasty breadcrumbs we’re leaving in hidden corners.
I am so tired of my student loan payments changing or being threatened to change all the time. Just tell me how much I owe you each month and leave me the fuck alone. I need to focus on budgeting groceries.
THAT explains why he all of a Sudden Endorsed Trump! Because Trump, who was BEST FRIENDS with Jeffrey Epstein until Epstein bought a Bigger Mansion, definitely would NOT Protect Elon Musk if it was found out Elon Musk was Raping Kids on Epstein Island!
If Kamala came out of the gate and was like “legal weed, y’all”, or something to that effect, I think it would address a lot of the skeletons that taint her candidacy. I know she’s sort of tried to atone for the things she did as a prosecutor, and I personally respect that was her job, but she really needs to plant her feet on who she’d be as the leader of the US.
