Musk lies brazenly to hide his own conflicts.

The image is a screenshot of a social media post by Brian Tyler Cohen (@briantylercohen
). The post reads: "Says the guy who spent millions to elect a judge that will soon be the deciding vote on a case involving Tesla’s ability to sell cars in the state." Below, a post by Elon Musk (@elonmusk
) at 10:23 PM on 4/1/25 with 1.1M views states: "The long con of the left is corruption of the judiciary."

It gives me no pleasure to say she was right.

A tweet from Isaiah Martin (
@isialahrmartin
) features a meme with a background of a brightly lit arena filled with people. The text on the meme reads: "OH HI THERE" at the top, and "ARE YOU LOOKING FOR THE PERSON WHO LITERALLY TOLD YOU ALL OF THIS WOULD HAPPEN?" at the bottom. In the foreground, Kamala Harris is sitting in a chair with a water bottle and some electronic devices on a table in front of her.

50501: The People’s Movement ❌👑

50501 is a decentralized rapid response to the anti-democratic, destructive, and, in many cases, illegal actions being undertaken by the Trump administration. Can I count on the senator to support us either in person or by sharing and elevating our movement?

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942.

I know. I was there in those camps.

This was LBJ’s order of 1965 specifying non-discriminatory practices in federal government hiring and employment.

A tweet by Melanie D'Arrigo reads: "The Department of Labor is ending all investigations and enforcement related to discrimination in the workplace. This doesn’t promote merit-based work. It promotes and protects bigotry."

Below is an image of a U.S. Department of Labor notice announcing the cessation of all enforcement and investigations under rescinded Executive Order 11246, citing a directive from Acting Secretary Vince Micone.

Maybe they were just overstimulated and accidentally did Nazi stuff.

A tweet by Rep. Gloria Johnson (
@VoteGloriaJ
) includes a screenshot of a document from the Tennessee Federation of Republican Women titled 'Growing American Patriots Through Literacy', dated March 2024. The document controversially references Adolf Hitler in the context of training youth. A news headline reads: 'Tennessee Republican women’s group cites Hitler in promoting its reading list' by Sarah Dolgin. Johnson comments: "Well, here we are. Tell me again how we didn’t see what we saw. Chattanooga Republican women say to be like Hitler."

What do you mean the void has a wait time?? I can’t just scream into my pillow, I have a lot of feelings and big lungs. The neighbors will hear me and call someone.
