Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I find it weird, even comic, that musk feels the same impotent powerlessness in the face of trump’s perfidy as the rest of us.
Not the same. He doesn't have to worry about loved ones getting kidnapped.
Yet...
Oh, he never will. For his loved ones to be in danger he would need to be capable of feeling love in the first place.
They could deport all his children to a communist country. That will get him angry
If trump/the fbi gave him a sufficiently exhaustive list of all of his children, I could see it. musk needs to get clean piss and spare organs from SOMEWHERE and it hurts his (father's) life goal of single handedly making the (white) human race significantly balder in future generations.
In all seriousness, the "noveau rich" (of which the child of an emerald mine owner considers himself to be part) tend to be obsessed with their children. They think they are feudal lords who are going to use their children as bargaining pieces. So they might openly hate their families even more than the "old money" families, but they consider them their strongest bargaining pieces. And since musk is both...
You think there is a chance that he might actually fall in love with someone?
Temporarily, sure
Until the ketamine wears off.
Ha! Joke's on you! Elon doesn't love anyone but himself, and I'm not even sure about that.
There's one thing I can think of that would solve all these problems for him
If you're talking about ketamine, he's waaaaayyyy ahead of you.
Cmon man just OD already please, you know?
That's too easy. I want him to expose all the things and continue ramping his feud with Herr Führer until they both take each other, and all of their sycophantic supporters, out.
It's times like these I think back to when Saddam Hussain was captured and tried for crimes against humanity.....
I mean, he'll likely just make more. Pawns, really. Meat shields.
