Elon Musk has turned Twitter into a giant propaganda machine focused on reelecting Trump. That’s where all of this madness is headed.
Elon has only ramped up his toxic cocktail of racism and stupidity since I wrote this piece this morning.
In reality, the Biden administration deported 142,000+ immigrants last year -- a record number that Elon actually believes is a drop.
And he thinks they're all axe murderers, too.
