Musk’s father Errol is in Moscow right night now, giving a speech at a conference organised by Fascist and Putin advisor Alexandr Dugin.

I’m old fashioned enough to think the BBC should be leading on what the deal is and what it means. Rather than the political claims from both sides.

Enough media talk of Israel “hitting targets”. There’s no precision. The one target is Gaza, indiscriminately. An internationally-recognised genocide.

And no more “fragile ceasefire” talk. It was never a ceasefire if one side refused to cease fire.

Last night’s death toll: 413, many children.

The White House has now confirmed Israel consulted the Trump administration before it carried out overnight airstrikes on Gaza. The latest body count is more than 400 Palestinians. 💔
The US, and Trump in particular, is directly accountable for the genocide in Gaza.

Hi, I'm the guy who used to oversee the federal government's agency IT telecommunications contracts. This is extremely bad. There is absolutely no need for this. Not only is it a huge security exposure, but the simplest explanation for this is that it is meant to be a security exposure.

US deports hundreds of Venezuelans "despite" court order.

Meaning, of course: "in breach of".

On the face of it, it looks like there is now a full constitutional crisis in United States, in that the executive is now freely ignoring court orders.

Crisis point reached.

This is blatant defiance of the court order. It was NOT too late. When the judge issued is order, two planes were in the air, and a third took off from Texas AFTER the order.

I'm sure Musk's beef with federal agencies stems from his annoyance with the FAA for all the safety precautions they want his rocket launches to follow. Anyway, here's his latest rocket blowing up near a commercial flight path.
