In an apparent effort to bolster Elon Musk’s waning but still enormous wealth, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick on Wednesday urged Americans to buy up Tesla stock.
Hmmm, as someone who is an expert in fiber optic technology, I’ve never heard of improving an Internet connection at one site by using a LEO at a data center. That is bizarre and makes no sense. Who the hell is in charge of IT at the WH?! This sounds more like an installation for Russia or China to spy on the WH.
This is a long range plan which began, let's say 60 years ago, but got into swing with the internet reaching every home in America. The Russians couldn't be more delighted to pick off millions of vulnerable Americans with their propaganda and lies coming directly from the machines in the individual hands of Americans. And 70 million Americans have fallen for it. Of course, all have been aided and abetted by right wing media and talking podheads. Shameful that we have let Russians determine who we are, we have let them split us in two, We are not gullible as much as we are human. Any evil overlord knows he just needs to use fear and perhaps, violence, to turn words into weapons, even when those words are confusing and untrue.
Jeez, where to begin? Blatant open corruption by this horrible person, unparalleled unstopped. We are gasping here, no one seems to be able to stop the juggernaut which is destroying our country before our own eyes. Someone please stop this man right now. Stop these men right now. Turn off their power and support, arrest them, do whatever it takes to stop Musk and Doge et al.
"White House officials said the installation was an effort to increase internet availability at the complex."
Complete bullshit, commercial and government fiber is plentiful there.
"Some areas of the property could not get cell service and that the existing Wi-Fi infrastructure was overtaxed…"
Complete bullshit, building out local wifi infrastructure with satellite internet.
WH officials said that Starlink had “donated” the service and that the gift had been vetted by the lawyer overseeing ethics issues in the White House Counsel’s Office.
Absolutely hilarious, but still disgusting bullshit.
I have to take a deep breath every time I read Musk Watch due to the increasing horror of what Musk is doing. Thank you for the investigative reporting that no one else is doing.
Conflicts of Interest majorly!! With all these government contracts, these guys should be nowhere near government functions. Of course, they went after tRump 🙄 for other crimes and failed.
Emoluments clause? Nevermind! Insider trading is now and has been legal?
Musk's only black "friends" would have to be his servants. They are the only black people that he would condescend to interact with. How long can failed businessmen and failed human beings trump and musk prop each other up? We have to make sure their regime of horror fails before they add our democracy to their list of failures.
I hate Evilelmo with a fierce and awesome hatred hotter than the heat of a multitude of suns. May his crusty loins be infested with the fleas of 1,000 camels!
Lutnick is an absolute disgrace. I suspect most readers of MW know that it is wildly unethical for the Commerce Secretary to advise people to buy a particular stock and give his opinion on the value of that stock.
Lutnick was CEO of Cantor Fitzgerald, a financial services company, that lost 658 employees in the Sep. 11, 2001 attack by al Qaeda terrorists on the World Trade Center, including his younger brother, Gary. Now Lutnick is helping another foreign terrorist, Elon Musk, destroy our democratic republic from within. WTF is wrong with you, Mr. Lutnick. Seriously.
"(Shortly before those comments, Cantor Fitzgerald, the investment bank where Lutnick served as CEO, upgraded its rating of Tesla to a buy. Cantor Fitzgerald is currently managed by Lutnick’s sons.)"
This is pretty much the definition of Insider Trading.

BlueSky is up and coming and would be worth considering
Trump makes sense if you assume he's a Russian asset whose job is to ruin the US and weaken the West. Musk makes sense if {um...help anybody?}.
Nice summary and report PI!

Voting Republican is easier than compassion or thinking.
As a kid in the 60s, I always worried about the Russian tanks rolling into Washington and taking over. Looks like they didn't need the tanks.
…if you understand his upbringing, his personality, and his drug addictions

Everybody, keep your eyes and ears open. I wouldn’t be surprised if public institutions are forced to buy Tesla stock to pump the price higher!
Most corrupt administration in history.

What does the lead subheading, "We had several black servants who were their friends" refer to?
You have to read a way down to get a quote from the dad. He says that Elmo had black friends, sorta. Just another racist comment.
Excellent piece. Can you find out who is paying this gang? From day one we all know their mischief isn't being done for free.
The richest man in the world isn’t musk it’s Putin Who do you think is paying?
