Why the fuck is it Elizabeth Warren speaking up and the Executive is totally mum? My GOP dad thinks Muskovite fucked up majorly, caused Ukrainians to die, and should be punished. Not that he’s a bellwether, but if he thinks it was wrong, many other GOP folks do as well. Fuck billionaires playing demigods. Warren speaking up is a GOP poison pill and a guaranteed “that’s what the rich are allowed to do, frail mortal!” moment where nothing fucking happens. EDIT: I love Warren. But she gets as much traction as a jr house member.
Department of Justice agencies don't announce when they've started investigations into somebody. You won't hear about it until there are charges.
You know, I thought that after I posted. But I don’t think there’s a damn thing going to be announced ever. Call me a pessimist.
You're probably not wrong.
It's wild that Elon has gone full psycho prissy little bitch just because his daughter came to the realization that billionaires are evil.
I have to assume he's always been this way. Previously he just listened to his PR people more.
But why has he stopped? Is it really just the ego of SpaceX and Tesla both doing pretty ok? Is it dating Grimes? Is it just plain old normal old man poo brain that's hard to see cause he's getting more plugs and plastic surgery?
Cause he's genuinely seemed to start making dumber decisions in recent years, and the fact that his teenage daughter cutoff contact with him because she thought he was evil actually makes a lot of sense for that underlying motivation, not necessarily driven by an over inflated ego but by a shattered one.
SpaceX and Tesla would do so much better if elon was cut out completely and replaced with a person who isn't an asshole or a repukelican
There was a ton of walls put up around him to make sure he couldn’t do anything stupid at Tesla/Paypal/whatever else he’s bought credit for. Once he bought Twitter none of those structures were in place and he was able to go full dictator crazy.
He’s probably been emboldened by trump and the disaster that are his fans. He’d rather be worshiped by a small group than liked by everyone.

Anal probes, Sen. Warren has since clarified.
Hopefully they are large and spiky.
I wish newspapers stopped writing these dumbass titles that only made sense on print when there was limited space.
