Kinda weird that in 2025. Google’s search AI would contradict itself in a short answer to a straightforward question.

Been making a lot of fruit smoothies lately- fruit, ginger, honey, Greek yogurt, milk, and water as needed to thin it out.

Would be simpler for Musk to buy/take over the Libertarian Party. Ofc, a political party is not literally for sale. But the world's richest could buy enough influence in the party to essentially make it his own. And since his ideas are roughyl Libertarian, it would be a good fit.
Elon Musk, the world’s wealthiest person and the country’s biggest political donor, said on Saturday that he would create a new political party.
Elon Musk Says He Will Start a New Political Party
The tech billionaire, who has publicly feuded with President Trump, wrote on social media that he would be creating “the America Party,” though he hadn’t yet filed paperwork.

Of course Musk sucks. He's a terrible person.
But I'll note that FDR allied with Stalin to defeat Hitler.
A progressive "alliance" with Musk pushes the analogy too far, but we cheer on his every anti-Trump move, including opposition to MAGA legislation and potentially starting a third party.

RIP Bill Moyers. Getting to write some speeches for him (on money in politics, back in the late 90s) was intimidating as hell. I struggled to match his voice until he said, just write it the way I would say it, then he took my mediocre prose and turned it into poetry.

It’s a little odd that most reports about tonight’s NYC mayoral election imply that the results of the RCV can’t be predicted. It’s obvious from polling and cross-endorsements that Mamdani will easily exceed 50%. (If Cuomo runs, November might be another story, but Mamdani has the Dem. nomination.)

A huge difference in American politics is that while Bush spent months building support for the Iraq War, Trump just started bombing Iran without any effort to build support, because he knows his supporters (and a supine Congress) won’t question anything he does. Really sad and really dangerous.
