So, Trump announced a bunch of tariffs today. Basically everybody but Russia.

But then there is 15-30 % for everybody. But Lesotho? Fuck Lesotho in particular, apparently. 50% tariffs.

Just by a super coincidence, seems like Starlink is trying to get a contract in Lesotho and having some difficulties. Clearly unrelated.

Amerikkalaiset jättifirmat ovat taas ryhtyneet mainostamaan Twitterissä

Eivät suinkaan siksi, että Twitter/X olisi jotenkin houkutteleva mainosalusta, vaan siksi, että ne pelkäävät joutuvansa Elon Muskin "tuhmien listalle", joka saattaisi aiheuttaa isompiakin ongelmia.

End of the #Bromance?

After the #Wisconsin #SupremeCourt election debacle, wäre #ElonMusk failed to procure the seat for the #MAGA candidate, bis dayy as #DODGE's #ChainsawMan are numbered:

Via #RachelBade @ #Politico:

"Trump Tells Inner Circle That Musk Will Leave Soon
The president is pleased with Elon Musk, but the decision comes as the tech mogul increasingly looks like a political liability.... "

EXACTLY what a #SOCIOPATH would say:

#ElonMusk has a…diagnosis of what’s *ailing* #America: It’s being destroyed by #empathy. In a long interview w/Joe Rogan, in numerous tweets…, #Musk has argued that “empathy” is a “suicidal” trait that is a driving force behind civilizational extinction. It is time, he believes, for “the West”…to bar its doors to #immigrants of a *certain type* & endure “temporary hardship” so govt can be transformed & “the woke mind virus will die.”

#Wisconsin In a stunning rebuke to outside influence and big-money #politics, Susan Crawford has defeated Brad Schmiel in the hotly contested race for the Wisconsin #SupremeCourt. The election, which drew national attention for its implications on abortion rights, voting laws, and corporate influence, took an even more dramatic turn when billionaire #ElonMusk poured a staggering $20 million into support for Schmiel—only to come up empty-handed. #billionaires #corruption #elections #democracy


Loser says what?

#ElonMusk is so full of crap, he claims that the #Wisconsin #VoterID requirement on the ballot “was the most important thing.”

It literally was already required of Wisconsin voters, the amendment merely codified it.

They are incapable of admitting when they lose.

Brad Schimel called Judge #SusanCrawford & conceded!

Finally a Republican who respects elections & of course it’s a member of the judiciary.

The Democratic-backed candidate for #WisconsinSupremeCourt defeated a challenger endorsed by #Trump & billionaire #ElonMusk, cementing a #liberal majority for at least 3 more years.

#SusanCrawford, a Dane County judge who led legal fights to protect #union power & #abortion rights, defeated Republican-backed Brad Schimel in a race that broke records for spending, was on pace to be the highest-turnout #Wisconsin #SupremeCourt election ever & became a proxy for #USpol battles.

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.

Elon Musk's Family History in South Africa Reveals Ties to Apartheid & Neo-Nazi Movements

Elon Musk was born in 1971 in Johannesburg, South Africa, and raised in a wealthy family under the country's racist apartheid laws.

"Musk lived what can only be described as a neocolonial life," said McGreal. "If you were a white South African in that period and you had any money at all, you lived with servants at your beck and call."

Money is pouring into Wisconsin’s Supreme Court election so fast that political observers now believe it is likely to reach $100 million by Tuesday, election day.

Already, it has become the costliest judicial race in U.S. history.

I have resigned as a reviewer for the Royal Society. I encourage others to do the same.

Dear editors,

Today I saw some news about the Royal Society which made me very uncomfortable. As a result, I am afraid I will withdraw my voluntary reviewing work for Royal Society. I will not after all be completing this review for Royal Society Open Science.

How Elon Musk’s SpaceX Secretly Allows Investment From China

As a U.S. military contractor, SpaceX sees allowing Chinese ownership as fraught. But it will allow the investment if it comes through secrecy hubs like the Cayman Islands, court records say. “It is certainly a policy of obfuscation,” an expert said.

“'What I’m saying is hang on to your stock,' Musk said."

And while he was saying this to the rank-and-file, board members and other insiders have been cashing out in a big way. (abcnews.go.com/Business/tesla-…)

Exactly the same thing happened at Enron when things started to go south.
