And they're planning to take it one step further: create an economic crisis, then use that as an excuse to gain more power over the economy and politics. 1

It’s your theory that Republicans will gain more power over politics by creating an economic crisis. Do I have that right? Seems like a really well thought out plan and I’m sure it will work out spectacularly for them.

He's hitched his wagon to a nominal Republican, but he has his own agenda.

ChiGoose Posted November 1 Posted November 1 If Trump wins and launches his deportation of illegal immigrants, is he going to deport Elon Musk? Elon Musk worked in US illegally in 1995 after quitting school – report "[T]he world’s wealthiest individual was almost certainly working in the US without correct authorization for a period in 1995 after he dropped out of Stanford University to work on his debut company, Zip2, which sold for about $300m four years later. Legal experts said foreign students cannot drop out of school to build a company even if they are not getting paid." Oh, and here's a video of his brother admitting that they were violating immigration laws. If he lied about this on his citizenship application, he could be eligible for denaturalization. I'm assuming MAGA is going to be very concerned and upset about this... 1

The Frankish Reich Posted November 1 Posted November 1 Elon: there's gonna be pain in the short term, but it'll all be worth it! For Elon: a haircut to his roughly $800 billion net worth. Hey, maybe even a couple hundred billion. Poor guy. Ordinary Americans: wipe out half of your retirement savings, or leave you without a job. Sounds like a good plan. 1

Big Blitz Posted November 4 Author Posted November 4 So just like CNN? All the networks? Tell us how they police “disinformation” and what exactly it is the Soros family finances who they finance and why. 1
Starr-Bills Posted November 4 Posted November 4 Got to appreciate Leon’s chutzpah telling a judge (there's a difference between "randomly" and "by chance,") to pay a “salary”.

You really don't know where you stand, eyerolls The party that is pushing pro-union and pro-worker policies is the corporatist party. The party whose only major piece of legislation in a decade was permanent corporate tax cuts and temporary individual tax cuts, and whose nominee has told billionaires and corporate leaders he’ll do whatever they want if they give him money is the party of the people. 2

All true. His lawyers are arguing that Musk misspoke when he said a person who signed his fealty to the 1st/2nd Amendment pledge would be chosen AT RANDOM to receive a million dollars. They're saying that the Musk group would vet them to see if they'd be good spokespeople for his PAC, and that this makes them contractors rather than "winners." Suckered again by the world's richest man as he tries to weasel his way out of a plan that clearly ran afoul of the law as written. 1
