Here it is: the new PROOF report on Musk. Massive, fully sourced, horrifying. The silver lining is that what Musk is up to and what he wants is becoming clear.
Spoiler: it has absolutely nothing to do with caring about children—which this report establishes (exhaustively) he does not and never has.

Elon Musk May Have Just Revealed the Real Reason For His UK Sexual Violence Lies
Musk’s false claims that Pakistanis are behind UK sexual violence—when government and media reports confirm gang-based UK sexual violence is largely white—are rightly termed racist. But it gets worse.

However badly you expect this to go, it will go worse.
Read the 2020 book Proof of Corruption if you want to know who this man is and what he is capable of.
More or less as soon as he takes the reins of the FBI, you should perceive the FBI as we know it as no longer existing in any meaningful way.

Is anyone going to call out Bernie Sanders for only showing up every 4 years as a Leftist, or is that only reserved for Jill Stein?

If you can’t explain the Minsk Agreements, I don’t want to hear about how Russia invaded Ukraine and Putin is a bad guy while Biden just forgave $46B of Ukraine’s debt for our involvement in a proxy war with Putin, endangering all of Europe now.

How about MSNBC start doing honest reporting on Israel, AIPAC, Dem sellouts, centrist bullshit — and maybe SAVE ITSELF?? Nah. That would be more like journalism
MSNBC is now a sinking ship.
Besides Rachel Maddow & Nicolle Wallace,
who is the next commentator you would save from the ship?

THREAD. One of the moments that changed my career was my first day as a public defender in D.C.'s juvenile court. When I walked into the courtroom, which is closed to the public, all the little children were fully shackled in metal chains on their wrists, waists, and feet.

Trump vetted Hegseth in 2017; past allegations came up and scuttled a VA nom. This time Trump axed the normal vetting processes, hired a private firm, didn’t wait for a report, selected Hegseth. Now his team says it was blindsided. Uh, no—it got caught. This is why media needs curatorial journalism.

It isn't just a cross tattoo. Hegseth has "Deus Vult" written on top of it. That's a somewhat botched version of a slogan from the Crusades that's popular with far-right extremist groups. The Proud Boys wrote it on their shields it in Charlottesville under their guise as the "Alt-Knights."
Hegseth: "I was deemed extremist because of a tattoo by my National Guard unit in Washington, DC, and my orders were revoked to guard the Biden inauguration...a Jerusalem cross tattoo, which is just a Christian symbol ...I'd never had orders revoked before"
