Billionaire tech entrepreneur Elon Musk, a key adviser to President-elect Donald Trump, over the weekend branded the United Kingdom a "tyrannical police state" and endorsed calls for a new election.

"The people of Britain have had enough of a tyrannical police state," Musk posted on X, quoting a post about an online petition calling for another election that has now reached 2 million signatures.

It came a day after the Musk reposted a graph showing U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer's declining approval ratings, adding: "The voice of the people is a great antidote."

Musk has clashed for months with Starmer, who said in August that the country was on the verge of a "civil war" after violent unrest in the U.K.

Asked about the petition during an interview on ITV's "This Morning," Starmer said: "Look, I remind myself that very many people didn't vote Labour at the last election. I'm not surprised that many of them want a re-run. That isn't how our system works.

So refreshing, to hear the truth spoken unapologetically.

For the Russians, Putin is a modern day Reagan.

Despite what we're told, the man is widely popular in Russia, restoring national pride, over seeing an economic recovery, restoring their military, dealing with the crime and corruption they had in the 90s.

For us he's portrayed as a bad guy 24/7, but for those that live in Russia and remember how it was under Yeltsin, the decline Russia suffered post Soviet era, he's the hero that fixes that, AND stood against the globalist and western decadent culture with its LGBT, euthanasia, radical feminism, abortion, DEI and race babble...

Remember Sochi and the Olympic games? That is where that became really apparent. In the West you had nonstop attacks on Putin and his stance on LGBT, but while we were making it sound negative in the West, the folks in Russia were cheering him on and he was scoring major points there.
