Where do Elon Musk's political allegiances align?

Republicans

When he was in Washington, DC today, he blew off Democrats.

Twitter is now the propaganda arm of the Republican Party.

A really fantastic article about how the #NYTimes continues to support #transphobia and contributing to making things worse for #trans kids. #LGBT #Transgender #TransHealth https://popula.com/2023/01/29/the-worst-thing-we-read-this-week-why-is-the-new-york-times-so-obsessed-with-trans-kids/

Something is deeply wrong with the New York Times

“17% of Florida's children live below the federal poverty line. Nearly 2 out 10.

1 out of 6 Florida children are food insecure, meaning they don’t know where they will get their next meal.

And @RonDeSantisFL responds by banning children's books.

GOP madness.

… In contrast, child poverty has declined in California by 5 points… And California hasn't banned books.”

What a poster child - chip off the old #TrumpVirus - for 'projection" (spewing out his own disgusting perspective and saying it's the others doing it), and for lying/ #disinformation and sustained squeaky-voiced, brow-furrowed wondering out-loud if 'what if MTG is right? Space lasers, from Jewish owners? It's very possible, in fact likely, that Biden's laptop is being cloned and loaded into chips that are delivered in vaccines. I'm just saying...."

Why is he allowed on TV? #Fox

@carowe @DryBird2993 @stopgopfox If I walk into a restaurant and see three guys of any race with guns strapped to their backs, I am going to turn around and go to a different restaurant.

One old sitcom gag is men not wanting to know about periods. If only tired old jokes were all they were dealing with in Florida, where authorities are planning to harvest data on when underage girls last bled.

Raising the debt ceiling is a routine, bipartisan obligation to cover previous spending.

Taking care of our people means paying our bills on time and protecting Social Security and Medicare.

House Democrats are committed to doing what's right for the American people.

House Jan. 6 committee concludes that the FBI and other federal security agencies could have repelled a violent mob from overrunning the Capitol had they acted on the large volume of intelligence collected beforehand, chief investigator tells NBC News. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/congress/fbi-stopped-jan-6-capitol-mob-acted-intelligence-rcna68155

Bob Woodward: News coverage of the Russia inquiry ”wasn’t handled well” and viewers and readers had been “cheated.”

He urged newsrooms to “walk down the painful road of introspection.” https://www.cjr.org/special_report/trumped-up-press-versus-president-ed-note.php/

One of my favorite things to do is modeling and recreating broken plastic wheelchair parts that cost a shitload of money but I can model and 3D print for super cheap. Rick is a teacher here at Lane Tech that works with wheelchair dependent students and he comes to me with the broken parts. Manufacturers charge way more than the families can afford.

Hey friends. Please read this open letter that I signed onto. It's a collective statement by college and university faculty from across the US who teach African American Studies in defense of the Advanced Placement (AP) African American American Studies course that was blocked/censored in Florida.

"If the McGonigal allegations are proven we have an entirely new set of problems. Not just that one political party was willing to become the cat’s paw of a foreign government, but that a key part of America’s law enforcement apparatus was in on the game." https://thetriad.thebulwark.com/p/charles-mcgonigal-and-the-deep-state

Days later, Twitter is still blocking links to the BBC documentary about Modi and Musk has yet to say anything about the censorship other than that he didn't know about it. That was 6 days ago. https://kenklippenstein.substack.com/p/elon-musk-continues-to-block-access
