Elon Musk

Musk says that Peter Navarro is dumber than a sack of bricks. Well, he's not wrong.

This could be the only thing he and I agree about.

Musk Fails (Big Shock)

Billionaire CEO Elon Musk confessed to the Cabinet Monday that his cost-cutting scheme fell enormously short of the $1 trillion savings he had promised the American people, Reuters reported Thursday.

The embarrassing reveal proved that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) saved only $150 billion, or 85 percent less than his original goal.

“Our goal is to reduce the deficit by $1 trillion,” the Special Government Employee Musk told Fox News last month.

Reporter Bret Baier then asked him if, as a “special government employee,” he would leave the office in his given time period of 130 days.
“I think we will have accomplished most of the work required to reduce the deficit by a trillion dollars within that time frame,” he said.

(My bolding.)

If Trump really wanted to reduce the deficit, he wouldn't be pushing for another big tax break, mostly for wealthy Americans.  From what I have read, the deficit will increase with Trump's overall policies, even with those cuts figured in.

I think what Trump and Musk have really been doing is undermining Congressional authority, specifically to cut Democratic programs which they call "waste and fraud."  Give a dog a bad name and hang it -- that's a part of the fascist playbook.

Ashley St. Clair Just Spilled All of Elon Musk’s ‘Harem Drama’

This is who Elon Musk has always been: a misogynist and, frankly, a predator. But clearly, it wasn’t until Musk’s behaviors personally affected St. Clair that she cared.

Among those insights are the (obvious) revelation that he’s using Twitter to recruit women to have his babies; that he’s obsessed with pressuring any and all women around him to have his babies and employs a professional fixer to keep the women in line; that he “is concerned about… Third World countries having higher birthrates than the U.S. and Europe”; and even more sordid details about his ongoing court battle with Ashley St. Clair, who revealed their baby in February.

St. Clair divulged further details about her interactions with Jared Birchall, the man Musk charges with keeping his—as St. Clair put it—“harem” in check, which includes managing NDAs with the mothers of Musk’s kids, paying them off, and staving off “harem drama.”

Musk first offered St. Clair $15 million and $100,000 a month to raise their newborn son, Romulus, in exchange for her silence. This, Birchall said, was the standard operation with the mothers of Musk’s kids. Relatedly: Four publicly known women have had Musk’s 14 kids, but several sources told the WSJ that this number—of kids and mothers—is definitely much, much higher. The report, in fact, details that Musk initially hoped to have at least 10 children with St. Clair.

In the weeks preceding St. Clair’s decision to come forward, she’d been in conflict with Musk and Birchall over concerns about the financial offers they’d made, namely that there were no guarantees for financial support if her and Musk’s son became ill, nor any trust fund; further, Musk’s refusal to publicly acknowledge the child or have his name on the child’s birth certificate, St. Clair argued, would make the child feel illegitimate.

Musk pressed St. Clair to have more kids with him. “To reach legion-level before the apocalypse,” he told her, referring to his kids, “we will need to use surrogates.” Musk told St. Clair he wanted at least 10 with her, she claims.

According to St. Clair, Birchall described Musk—who is single-handedly responsible for large swaths of children in poorer countries starving and dying of disease thanks to DOGE—as a “very big-hearted, kind and generous person.” But, Birchall warned, taking legal actions like compelling Musk to take a paternity test or hiring a lawyer “always, always leads to a worse outcome for that woman than what it would have been otherwise.” Birchall further described an operation that, frankly, sounds like Musk regards the mothers of his kids as employees. “[Musk’s] entire world is set up to be, like, a meritocracy” and Musk’s mothers receive benefits when “people do good work”—that is, when they respect his privacy.
