These so-called oligarchs should be called out for what they actually are-despicable human beings. Their risk-taking and ingenuity should not be celebrated in the absence of their humanity and their boundless greed. I hope I’m around for their reckoning. But at 71, I’m guessing I’ll just be around to witness the crash and burn of the shining city on the Hill.
I am 73 years old and have often told my wife that if you look back in history, most democratic governments last about 200 years. Sop, we are just about on track. Our only hope is that we can turn 2/3 of the special house elections coming up. But, the crash and burn is starting today....
Thank you for this launch. Musk is what my millenials call a "Douche."
Wish Mark Cuban would fund a national streaming spot where the masses could view Substack journalism and the journalists would be paid by contributions.
Musk's disingenuous self-aggrandizement needs to be broadcast far and wide. This bottom-feeding guttersnipe has the money to PRETEND that he's a huge humanitarian, all without lifting more than a finger (figuratively speaking). He brays like the loudest ass about his supposed charity, getting others to spread his lies, while he provides the barest minimum in order to say that he participated.
Courtesy of his familial wealth, he's had the opportunity to invest in multiple innovative companies. As luck, or good maneuvering by their respective corporate boards, would have it, he's managed to earn billions from his investments, largely while adding little or nothing to their value. His money is his only claim to fame, and even the Money Grubber in Chief will tire of him eventually.
He is a corrupt asshole. Would anyone like to buy a used starlink "kit"?
If you absolutely need it it's a good thing, it's also 150 a month You don't pay that kind of money unless you can't live without it. Since then I've had both T-Mobile and Comcast and they're just as good.
Just like Detroit's lead water fix. Just like Hurricane Maria and microgrids for Puerto Rico. Just like the imaginary Covid ventilators. Just like the ill-fated sub to rescue the Thai cave kids. Musk must insert himself into any well-publicized disaster with empty promises because he has a hero complex and loves the attention.
Thank you for reporting the actual truth about him. Due to his immense wealth and media presence he has great PR amplified by his x-followers and believers in his great intelligence. In this regard he is equal to Trump , if not superior.
He is a very dangerous being, trying to gain absolute leadership over the US, implementing his dangerous visions along with his techbros.
Best of luck in your new venture. We need this now. I’m glad to be aboard.
Thanks for the support, Paul.

I’m right there with you and I will try as much as possible to prevent it from happening.
Good luck on your latest endeavor. You’ll have lots of material
It never was a shining city on the hill.
I know, but the republican’s original god said it was.
What an awful human being.
Take out “human” and it’s more fitting for this “being”. He was and is a POS.
The worst

Dreaming big to stay alive the next 4 years.

Glad you are doing this. The truth needs to be told
Thanks for this. Important journalism!
it's always a grift...always. That's his default.

For years now we have known that Musk is the second worst person on the planet. And possibly the most dangerous.
Sad to find out that was true.

Looking forward to this, much needed.

Keep up the good works!
What an ass bag
Crumbs, stale crumbs, not from the table of joy but from the Nazi pig's front shirt.
