"Right-wing attack machine" goes after Musk.

Just to show who has the real power in this country.

After yesterday's showdown between the richest man in the world against the most powerful man in the world, people were anticipating what today would bring?

Trump began by talking about the economy. He wanted to change the subject, it appeared?

Mush has been rather silent today. He is studying his next move.

In the meantime, Steve Bannon is calling for Musk to be investigated, that his SpaceX company be nationalized, and that Musk be deported.

FOX News is trying to clean up the Epstein scandal in Aisle 6. They are telling their viewers that if there was anything to the scandal, Joe Biden would have used it to go after Trump. But, since he didn't, there is probably nothing to look at there.

As they are attempting to clean up the attacks from Musk, they are simultaneously doing a hatchet job on Musk, talking about his drug use and his personal life and his numerous government contracts.

By the end of the week, we will likely be hearing about the Epstein "hoax" put out by a sick and drug-addled opponent of Donald Trump?

Biden wouldn’t use the Epstein files to “go after” a political opponent. I heard a MAGA say that on CNN yesterday. It is self revealing. MAGA weaponizes anything they can and assumes we all think like them

....the more they divide the Republicans.

Musk is not going to be intimidated into complete silence. The more they piss him off, the more they help the Democrats. He will use his money against them. so long as he has money, he has power.

I would not be surprised if his next big tweet states that he is starting a Third Party to represent the majority of this country.

And that he will fund those Congressional candidates willing to run against all those that voted for the "abomination" of a spending bill.

In my opinion, Musk lusts for power much like Trump does.

Wouldn't it be a crying shame if every Tesla in the country drove itself to Washington on June 14?
