I really enjoyed watching #elonmusk get mercilessly heckled at his own rally in #wisconsin and then panic, and blame it on people being paid off in the audience.
What about the millions around the world protesting him?
What about the millions of Americans who are?
Nobody has enough money.
He's just a man-child in a death spiral, and all his stocks are crashing.
#trump Whitehouse people are turning on one another, and hiding.
We are winning.

MAN #maga people are slow on #news aren't they?
I still have people claiming that #greenland itself wants to be part of the #usa despite them stopping #JDVance and #ushavance from coming, then every single Greenlander ALSO saying no after the travel agency said no, and his reps went house to house BEGGING for someone to let them, and they also said no.
I didn't know you could be MORE CLEAR and still not be heard.
These people... UGH!

Donald Trump is moving fast and breaking things, but that may result in a better US
The chance of the president succeeding in his radicalism is small, but amid the chaos are challenges to convention that were overdue, says Guardian columnist Simon JenkinsSimon Jenkins (The Guardian)
“A Russian scientist from Harvard Medical School has been detained by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement, according to her friends and colleagues.
…
Petrova’s boss, Leon Peshkin, said in an interview on Thursday that the researcher had good reason to fear being returned to Russia because she had publicly protested the Russian invasion of Ukraine in its first days, called for the impeachment of Vladimir Putin, the Russian president, and was arrested. She managed to flee, first to the former Soviet republic of Georgia and then to the United States, to continue her research on genomes.”

So #ushavance is now NO LONGER going to #greenland as the travel agency involved said she is not welcome with them.
Then #vance had reps canvas house to house, and business to business trying to find a place for them to stay, and not a single person let them.
I love this, as #maga folks were talking up a storm about how Greenland wanted to be part of the #usa
Now the trip is cancelled, and there is no way to spin it that they do want this!
EVERYONE said no.
Lol.
