Certainly on Elon's message and character
Elon Musk, the owner of X, announced a new feature with a post on Christmas Eve encouraging users to try editing images and videos with Grok. Then, a few weeks later, many women noticed something disturbing online: a flood of AI-generated sexualized images of them on the social media platform X.
Women and children are being digitally undressed on social media
X users are asking the platform's AI chatbot, Grok, to create sexualized images before new legal protections take effect.

With increasingly higher costs for basics, people feeling insecurity, his goons killing people on the street, & culture turning its back on him, it's safe bet Trump will invade more places and declare larger numbers of Americans as threats to him and his.

I am outraged by the horrific killing of a legal observer perpetrated by Donald Trump's ICE agents in South Minneapolis. Video footage shows clearly that this killing was unjustified. I demand a full investigation and this agent must be held accountable. www.npr.org/2026/01/07/n...
ICE agent fatally shoots woman in Minneapolis amid immigration crackdown
The Department of Homeland Security accused the victim of being a "rioter" and that the ICE officer who pulled the trigger was "fearing for his life." Mayor Jacob Frey rejected claims of self-defense.
