Elon denies he betrayed the Ukrainians in the midst of a Russian assault in order to help Putin. But WSJ has the evidence: he did. Can we allow a drug addict from South Africa to run US military assets in the middle of a war? How did this happen? www.wsj.com/world/ukrain...
an old saying in Texas politics was the only way a popular pol could get taken down was getting caught "with a dead prostitute or a live boy." Sure looks like the latter with this guy.
Trump: "I'm studying his body. I've never studied the body of a man before. It's not my thing. Nothing wrong with it, of course. But it's never been my thing. But I looked at his ass. I said, 'His ass, shit, it's like a pile of muscle.' Then I looked at his legs and I said, 'Man, his feet are big.'"

All that tech and they let the drones fly though the front door. I thought Russia was supposed to be good at cyber stuff?
Ukrainian attack drones struck Sberbank’s newly built Mega Data Center in Balakovo, Saratov Oblast. At least one drone flew directly into the facility’s entrance. The 122.2 billion-ruble complex was designed for around 3,000 server racks, up to 120,000 servers and 82 MW of power. #Russia

How to defeat tech billionaire power? Look at Solano County. When billionaires invaded their community with plans to build a "tech utopia," Democrats AND Republicans banded together to fight back. In a triumph of local democracy, they stopped the project...for now. 🎁 www.wsj.com/us-news/sili...
