Stephen K. Bannon, one of Elon Musk’s most vocal critics, said he was advising the president to cancel all of the tech billionaire’s contracts and launch several investigations into the world’s richest man. “They should initiate a formal investigation of his immigration status, because I am of the strong belief that he is an illegal alien, and he should be deported from the country immediately,” Mr. Bannon, the former top aide to President Trump who is now an influential ally and informal adviser, said in an interview. ...Mr. Bannon said the Trump administration should also investigate Mr. Musk’s drug use,...

In a bombshell interview with Eric Bolling on The Balance, former New York City Mayor and Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani stunned conservatives by publicly expressing deep frustration with key decisions made under the Trump-era Department of Justice and FBI. Giuliani — long viewed as a stalwart ally of the MAGA movement — admitted he is “very upset” with recent actions by officials at the Department of Justice and FBI. This comes after FBI Director Kash Patel reportedly appointed Steven Jensen to lead the coveted FBI Washington Field Office. According to the New York Times, Jensen “played a key role in...

Eh, this could get messy. Apparently, Steve Bannon was talking to media in Italy and said some rather confrontational things about Elon Musk. (CP) “I will have Elon Musk run out of here by Inauguration Day,” Bannon told the Italian daily Corriere della Sera this week. “He will not have a blue pass to the White House, he will not have full access to the White House, he will be like any other person.” “He is a truly evil guy, a very bad guy. I made it my personal thing to take this guy down,” Bannon added. “Before, because he...

Civil war has broken out within the MAGA Republicans. On the one side are the traditional MAGAs, who tend to be White, anti-immigrant, and less educated than the rest of the United States. They believe that the modern government’s protection of equal rights for women and minorities has ruined America, and they tend to want to isolate the U.S. from the rest of the world. They make up Trump’s voting base

There are many people who only became aware of Elon Musk after he dropped Ron DeSantis and took up a position in support of President Trump. Most of those people do not have a reference for Musk complying with the platform control demands of Brazil, France and Turkey [Durov (Telegram), and Pavlovski (Rumble) did not]. Most of those Pro-Elon people also do not have a reference for Musk claiming he and his legal team did not know former FBI Chief Legal Counsel James Baker was the legal counsel for Twitter at the time of the purchase, until after independent journalist...

Laura Loomer, a staunch ally of President-elect Trump and far-right activist, suggested that some Republicans in Trump’s circle don’t want to cross billionaire Elon Musk. “It sounds like people are scared of crossing the king, the king of the world, Elon Musk, the monarch,” Loomer told longtime conservative broadcaster and pundit Eric Bolling on Monday. “Nobody wants to cross this guy,” she added in the interview, as highlighted by Mediaite. Loomer also suggested during the interview that Musk’s multimillion-dollar campaign that helped propel Trump back into the Oval Office may have intimidated some within the president-elect’s base. “This is the...

Effective December 26, Elon Musk changed the Twitter algorithm to diminish those voices who would openly confront his network of supporters within Silicon Valley and beyond. If large follower Twitter accounts, like those of Musk himself, David Sacks, Vivek Ramaswamy and Musks’ promoted network of influencers begin blocking accounts on the platform, then the voices of those accounts get purposefully diminished by the algorithm.Much like having a VIP section that can remove people from the audience, Musk is pushing opposing viewpoints into the background of the public square.[SOURCE]The timing of this is not accidental. The allies of Musk have been...

The internal rift inside the MAGA movement over the H-1B visa continues to play out on X with Elon Musk attacking a critic of the program on Friday using a profane quote from Tom Cruise's character in the movie "Tropic Thunder." Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, who have been tapped by President-elect Trump to lead his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), argued earlier this week that American culture has not prioritized education enough and therefore foreign workers are needed for tech companies like Musk’s SpaceX and Tesla. Many tech companies have embraced the H-1B visa program, which allows U.S. companies to...

It’s November 2023, and, following the October 7 attacks by Hamas terrorists that killed some 1,400 Israelis and at least 31 Americans, thousands of demonstrators march through New York City, calling for the destruction of the Jewish state. Chants of “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” echo through the streets, along with “there is only one solution: intifada revolution.” Among the crowd is the infamous Palestinian American activist Linda Sarsour, who warns through a megaphone that a cabal of wily Jews has conspired to place “their little posters” (of kidnapped Israeli civilians) across the city, seeking...

A major point of contention among Redditors was including the state of Missouri in the South. 'I'll be deep in the cold, cold ground before I recognize Missourah!' a man declared, whose comments history suggests he lives in Alabama - and who further poked fun at how some in the southern part of Missouri pronounce the state's name. 'I feel like Missouri was only given to the south here to generate interaction and comments. Missouri is definitely Midwest, and classified by the government as Midwest,' a second argued. What do YOU think is the correct area for Missouri? South Midwest...

Texas Can Survive as the Lone Star State Posted Jan 30, 2024 By Martin Armstrong | Oil Production Crude Energy 1 graph Most importantly, Texas has oil, gas, and refining capacity and would continue to produce and refine fossil fuels. Without Texas, the United States would not be able to wage war, lacking the energy to fuel its tanks. Texas could stand on its own, and to ensure energy, other Red States would join hands against Washington.

The danger we all feel is coming, the apocalypse: it’s not something God is sending, it’s not something the average sinner or believer is causing, it’s what Satan’s miserable, misleadable devotees are doing to the rest of us. The devil can’t make anything happen in this world unless people help him. There would be no reason for God to send judgement otherwise. The rulers of this world divide us (otherwise indivisible) pushing tribalism through ethnicity, religion, politics: black vs white, commie vs capitalist, Islamic terrorists vs everybody, vaxed vs unvaxed, Ukraine vs Russia, Palestine vs Israel, gay vs straight, sinner...

A massive pro-Palestine protest that started at 12pm on October 21 saw the attendance of some 100,000 people, the Met Police said, with many groups pledging their support to Palestinians. Among them were representatives of the LGBTQ+ community. But a video widely shared on social media appears to show uneasiness and lack of unity among some of the factions attending the event. The clip, filmed in Trafalgar Square where the "March For Palestine" ended, initially shows a Progressive Pride Flag being waved. Shortly after, the flag representing the LGBTQ+ community can be seen falling to the ground. As people surrounded...

President Joe Biden said Sunday on CNN’s “Fareed Zakaria GPS” that he didn’t think Ukraine was ready for NATO membership. Biden said, “I don’t think it’s ready for membership in NATO. But here is the deal, I spent a great deal of time holding NATO together because I believe Putin has an overwhelming objective at the time that he launched 85,000 troops into Ukraine, and that was to break NATO. He was confident in my view that he could break NATO. So holding NATO together is really critical.”

A trend is emerging in which those who seemingly were Trump supporters are being uncovered as something else, in some cases they now appear to be “never-again Trumpers.” Laura Loomer reported on the late-night communications House Speaker McCarthy had, apparently in preparation to modify California’s Delegate laws in order to move some delegates away from the presumed frontrunner – Trump, and toward a runner-up such as DeSantis. Here in Georgia, Brian Kemp, Brad Raffensperger and others have made it quite clear that they will not support Trump. Raffenspergers office has said hey will not even confirm the election schedule until...

Metals magnate and Republican donor Andy Sabin said he has soured on Florida Governor Ron DeSantis over his stance on abortion and Ukraine, and is now planning to back Senator Tim Scott instead in the 2024 Republican White House race. Sabin had been considering donating to DeSantis, who is expected to officially announce a White House run in June, but changed his mind after the governor signed a new law banning abortions after six weeks and called the war in Ukraine a "territorial dispute." While Sabin is not a megadonor, his decision not to back DeSantis underscores concerns among some...

People who have received COVID-19 vaccines express discriminatory attitudes toward unvaccinated people, a new study of over 15,000 citizens of 21 countries across the world suggests. “Individuals who comply with the advice of health authorities morally condemn the unvaccinated for violating a social contract in the midst of a crisis,” two Denmark-based scientists wrote in their paper, published Thursday in Nature. “Those who refuse vaccines report that they feel discriminated and pressured against their will.” To measure COVID-19 vaccination status-based prejudice, researchers asked some 15,233 people how they feel if a close relatives of theirs are going to marry a...
