True ⬇️ and by the way the US presented no proof he is a terrorist. That is something the US could have (and had a right to have) alleged and proved in court but chose not to. And admitted the deportation was a US mistake.
How much you wanna bet that soon we’ll find out it’ll cost $100 billion or some such amount to fix everything he broke?
I'm not saying journalists should never interview admitted propagandists. There are journalistic reasons to do so. But if we do, we must be prepared to -- in fact it is our duty to -- challenge vociferously all unsubstantiated claims. Otherwise, we ourselves become propagandists.

The economy is in free fall.
The markets are collapsing.
Our soldiers are dying.
Our sensitive information is being leaked over text message and gmail.
Random people are being kidnapped and sent to foreign torture prisons.
And Trump is fucking golfing.
There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers.
Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.

"When asked about Musk’s political activities...

The House just voted that “each day for the remainder of the 119th Congress shall not constitute a calendar day for purposes of section 202 of the National Emergencies Act.” A day is not a day. Lewis Carroll, George Orwell, and Franz Kafka must all be chuckling — or weeping.
The Repugs are as responsible for this horrific, evil monster committing war crimes against our ally in favor of Putin.
