Who’s going to take the first shot at Musk? Some MAGA arsehole, or a VA recipient after their benefits get cut?

It will be the Jewish Space Lasers.
He’ll go up in one of his SpaceX things and they will shoot him down.

A Cybertruck has exploded outside Donald Trump’s Las Vegas hotel, killing one and injuring seven.

Hard to know if that’s symbolic of what’s to come between Musk & Trump, a deliberate act by a disillusioned nutter, or just another Tesla exploding as they seem inclined to do.

The “same rental app” story is a bit of a nonevent. Two cars used for nefarious purposes were rented using a popular car rental app that is used by thousands of people every day.

I wonder what went wrong with the New Orleans attacker? He had a long and what appears to be successful career in the military and appeared to have a good post-military life.

I have so many questions:

Hang it in the Louvre:

Both he and the New Orleans bloke did tours of Afghanistan and were based out of Fort Bragg/Liberty. Pretty wild coincidence.

The first shots in the upcoming civil war?

There was talk that there was a video of people loading the new orleans truck before the attack

They weren’t at the base at the same time but the similarities between them makes it a little weird that they’ve ruled out any connection so quickly.
I know that just about every available resource would have been assigned to both of the attacks but it still feels like they’ve come to that conclusion very quickly.

Especially given the first attacker they were after a group, then they weren’t.

They couldn’t have traced back exactly who each of these people were in contact with when abroad, or even state side for that matter so quickly.

Unless it’s purely to ensure there isn’t collective fear brewing.

/takes off conspiracy theorist hat

While I don’t think this is the entire reason I can’t help but think that, with the upcoming inauguration, the various US Intelligence and Law Enforcement services are trying to keep a lid on the powder keg.

I’m no conspiracy theorist but the second attack (Musk car, Trump hotel) could and probably would see serious reprisal attacks from the MAGA lot if it wasn’t shut down as a lone attacker as quick as it was.

One thing is for sure though, the US is teetering on the brink right now. I’d hate to be living there.

I know of people who are actively looking to get out of the US and move here. I’m glad they’re seeing the warning signs and not ignoring them.

So Musk is now punching on very heavily with the UK, even going to the extent of calling for Farage to step down his position. Haha it’s fucking amazing when Farage is now being seen as weak on immigration and conservative matters by Musk

It’s nothing to do with Farage being soft on anything, it’s 100% because Farage disagreed with Musk’s call to have Tommy Robinson freed from jail, and Musk, being the overstimulated toddler that he is, threw a tanty.

Imagine being so much of a cunt that Nigel Farage thinks you’re a dick, despite being a racist, fascist, homophobic cockwomble.

Trump not ruling out invading a NATO ally.

This will be a test for whether congress is still at least semi-sane.

I made the mistake of clicking on the comments of a Fox article on that one. Jesus christ the amount of deluded people that think Greenland and Canada WANT to be part of the US is amazing
