A bunch of big men chase, throw & abuse a frightened animal. What happened to make them so cruel? What happened to journos who laugh at cruelty?

Vichy Dem @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social refuses to use our Constitution’s tools to tear down the Trump Regime. He collaborates in Trump’s fascism. He betrays his Oath of Office and sabotages our Republic. No wonder @electdemocrats.bsky.social DCCC love him: he’s playing their donors’ song. Traitor.

The interview gave The Economist some relevance and let Musk show himself pushing back against the evil media. It worked for both sides. As Zanny Minton Beddoes complimented him, he was effectively calling for her head — all part of the game. disconnect.blog/elon-musks-t...
Elon Musk can keep wreaking havoc and bullshitting everyone because he’s simply become too big to fail. Investors can’t let him go bust, and the media can’t let him become irrelevant. Too much is built up around him, so he can effectively do as he pleases. disconnect.blog/elon-musks-t...
After The Economist’s interview with Elon Musk, will major media finally reassess how they cover the fascist billionaire? As its editor-in-chief did the rounds saying she was “not a Musk hater,” he was on X calling her a traitor to the West and suggesting she be murdered. Please, have some dignity.
Elon Musk’s tired schtickWhy does the media keep debasing itself for a man who despises them?disconnect.blog
“The companies don’t crash because investors have simply put too many eggs in the Elon Musk basket. If he collapsed, they would lose billions… For media, it’s much the same: they’ve spend so long helping elevate him to this position, they can’t give up on him.”

Yes. Death threats to a witness is a crime. @glennkirschner.bsky.social said there IS a process the FBI can use to determine the intent of the threat & to make the case, but it isn't done when they come from Trump or his MAGA supporters. But a civil case can be made, I hope she brings it.
