"Meet Elon Musk, Our New Shadow President."

As Democrats and pundits start (rightly) calling him "President Musk," I'd like to modestly point out that we at Zeteo were well ahead of the curve on this, running this Jacob Silverman piece on the Twitter boss's newfound unelected power back on Nov 11:
Meet Elon Musk, Our New Shadow President
From making Ukraine policy to destroying the administrative state at home, is Musk the real power behind the throne – and how much will he profit from his new status?

John Dean says Biden should pardon literally everyone Trump vowed to target when he returns to the White House. This includes those who investigated Trump—including Robert Mueller, Jack Smith and their teams—as well as “all on Trump’s enemies list.” However, I don’t agree Biden should pardon Trump.

The Watergate figure said the president could "take the wind" out of Trump's plans for revenge and retribution with a stroke of his pen.

The piece has tons of devastating details about Hegseth's many, many disqualifying personal traits, but we shouldn't overlook the parts about how he has repeatedly mismanaged every single organization he's led and been driven out of job after job for utter incompetence.
Yikes. A racist, drunken, sexual predator. "A different former employee described Hegseth being at a bar in the early-morning hours of May 29, 2015, while on an official tour through Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, drunkenly chanting “Kill All Muslims! Kill All Muslims!” www.newyorker.com/news/news-de...

I hope I can articulate this properly and without offense: Does this ridiculous hysteria about trans women being in bathrooms also seems to kinda reveal that people think men are just inherently dangerous around women?

Maybe it’s me, maybe I’m old fashioned, but I’m pretty sure our president shouldn’t be a rapist, our DNI shouldn’t be on a TSA watchlist list and our head of counterintelligence should probably be able to pass a background check.

Right?

Former DOJ prosecutor Harry Litman makes the case as to why Merrick Garland must release the reports on Trump's cases: "If [Trump] gets his way, history’s record of his crimes will be replaced by blank pages."

It is worth noting that Matt Gaetz pulled out of AG consideration, not because fellow Republicans told him they couldn't support someone who raped and gave drugs to underage girls, but because CNN told him that more accusations were forthcoming.

Matt Gaetz withdrew as AG - because he has something to hide

Matt Gaetz resigned from the House - because he has something to hide

Matt Gaetz begged Trump for a pardon - because he has something to hide

Release the ENTIRE Gaetz report - the American people deserve to know

so is anybody even going to bother to go through the motions of calling for Trump to divest from his businesses this time around, or did we just give up on that one too?

What Jack said:
When I think about Joe & Mika appeasing Trump so they can maintain their comfy lives, I think about Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss enduring years of harassment for simply doing their jobs.

So when Joe defends it by saying people need to live in the real world, he should respectfully go screw himself.

This should terrify every American. It doesn’t matter where you stand on immigration. Using our military as a domestic law enforcement tool at mass scale will destroy its core purpose, turn the American people against them, and damage the institution for decades.

Adam Schiff on Matt Gaetz: "I think he's not only unqualified. He's disqualified ... the whole point with these nominees, several of them, is their unqualification, is their affirmative disqualification ... if they will confirm Matt Gaetz, they will do anything he wants."

Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens.

Don’t think it won’t happen again when they come for the “undocumented.”
