@GlobalAffairs Earlier this week, X was ordered by the Australian E-Safety Commissioner, subject to an approximately $800,000 AUD fine, to remove a user's post. The post had criticized an individual appointed by the World Health Organization to serve as an expert on transgender issues. X is withholding the post in Australia in compliance with the order but intends to file a legal challenge to the order to protect its user's right to free speech.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. – Today, Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey filed suit against Media Matters to force the nonprofit to turn over documents related to his investigation into its fraudulent business practices. General Bailey launched his investigation in November 2023 after evidence came to light that Media Matters solicited donations from Missourians under false pretenses to target X, formerly known as Twitter, in direct violation of the Missouri Merchandising Practices Act. “My office has reason to believe Media Matters used fraud to solicit donations from Missourians in order to bully advertisers into pulling out of X, the last social media...

Business magnate Elon Musk asserted in a post on X that the U.S. will be "toast" if there is not a "red wave." "I voted 100% Dem until a few years ago. Now, I think we need a red wave or America is toast," Musk wrote. The term "red wave" refers to a dominant performance by Republicans during an election cycle.

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency has set its sights on the Moon, recently choosing defense giant Northrop Grumman to work on concepts for building a lunar railroad network, according to the Debrief. The recent development is DARPA's latest announcement concerning their 10-year Lunar Architecture (LunA-10) Capability Study. The ultimate goal is to reportedly establish a human colony on the Moon and a "thriving lunar economy." DARPA published the following statement about the development: The 10-Year Lunar Architecture (LunA-10) will explore the rapid development of foundational technology concepts designed to move away from individual scientific efforts within isolated, self-sufficient systems...

Elon Musk recently posted what is — or should be — a devastating video ad (“infomercial?”) by Western Lensman exposing the Democrats plan to utilize The Great Replacement to solidify their power for the foreseeable future. Please watch the video. It is well worth one minute and thirty-nine seconds of your time. The video illuminates the Democrats’ Seven-Step Program for winning elections and obtaining a permanent majority, effectively making the United States a one-party state. (Some possible synonyms for one-party state are: authoritarian regime, autocracy, oligarchy, Marxist-Leninist regime, fascist regime, police state, people’s republic, dictatorship, and banana republic, among others.)....

Neuralink posted a livestream on X featuring Noland Arbaugh, the first person to use Neuralink's technology that enables control of a computer via thought. In the video on Wednesday, Arbaugh said that he is 29 years old and noted that he is paralyzed below his shoulders due to a "diving accident" around 8 years ago. He demonstrated his ability to move the cursor on the computer screen and play chess using the Neuralink technology. And at the request of the Neuralink engineer who was also on the video, Arbaugh paused music that had been playing. In an apparent reference to...

Ever felt like the more you understand about how things work, the more insane it all seems? Scott Adams recently touched on this, highlighting how the system protects itself by being so outrageously flawed that those who start to see through it are often labeled as crazy. It’s like stepping into a “crazy zone” where you realize that what you once thought was reality might just be a facade.

X owner and Tesla CEO Elon Musk has posted a devastating ad exposing the migrant invasion for what it really is. The ad was originally produced by Western Lensman. Musk, who has become progressively red-pilled over the last few years, shared the ad with his 177 million followers on X with the tagline: “This is happening!” The ad, which was originally posted and produced by the anti-communist account Western Lensman, exposes how the Democratic Party’s open borders policy is part of a broader plan to entrench single-party rule. This is actually happening! pic.twitter.com/qeNBu3S1mF — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) March 19, 2024...

The Honorable Terrence K. Williams goes off on Don Lemon

Van Halen only wanted green M&Ms; Mariah Carey demanded a chewing gum valet; J-Lo demanded a newly painted white dressing room; Justin Timberlake demanded door knob cleaners; and then there's Don Lemon. The deposed CNN show host was trying to make his big comeback ala Tucker Carlson with his own show on the X social media platform. His first big "get" was Elon Musk, an interview that was supposed to air in his debut show next week, but will air on YouTube instead. But then Lemon opened his mouth and removed all doubt. Hubris oozed out. Don asked questions in...

Elon Musk escalated his war of words with former CNN host Don Lemon, comparing him to a spoiled child. “Don “Veruca Salt” Lemon,” Musk posted Friday on X — likening Lemon to the outrageously indulged character in the Roald Dahl classic “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.” The jab comes hours after The Post reported Lemon had made extravagant demands on Musk as part of a deal to host a talk show on the platform.

Don Lemon demanded the sun, the moon and the stars from the SpaceX boss – before being unceremoniously dumped this week, The Post has learned. The ex-CNN anchor sent over an astronomical wish list to Elon Musk during contract talks to host a show on the billionaire’s social media platform X – including a free Tesla Cybertruck, a $5 million upfront payment on top of an $8 million salary, an equity stake in the multibillion-dollar company, and the right to approve any changes in X policy as it relates to news content, according to a document reviewed by The Post....

A new step toward the future of mankind was taken this week following another successful launch from SpaceX. As with other major news stories, it can be interesting and informative to see how it was covered by different media outlets. Here is a rundown of how 13 major news sources covered Elon Musk's latest successful launch: CNN: Musk Chooses Space Exploration Over Ending World Hunger Salon: I Lived It: I Inhaled Musk's Rocket's Fumes And They Killed Me Snopes: Fact check: did Elon Musk's rocket successfully launch? Mostly false. Not the Bee: EEEEK! ELON MUSK LAUNCHED A ROCKET INTO SPACE...

Elon's tweet on Xransomnote: I enlarged the two attachments in that embedded tweet: Mar 10, 2024 ransomnote: SO I guess we watch for large manufacturers to use the promise of cheap foreign labor cut their domestic employment costs. One strategy: maybe just ignore regulatory issues until a 'red tape shutdown,' let all (domestic) employees go, drag feet through regulatory correction and then WHAM!!!! Hire back cheap using all those illegals waiting for citizenship. Brandon then brags about his job creation prowess.....

Illegal immigrants are tilting the balance of power towards Democrats, who are refusing to change the practice of counting them in the Census. “Most Americans do not know that the US census currently counts, for purposes of voting power, all people in a district, regardless of citizenship!” Musk posted on X Friday, in a post with 19.2 million views as of Sunday night. “Senate Democrats just voted unanimously to defeat an amendment that would have stopped counting illegals for congressional seat apportionment and electoral college (presidential) votes,” ...

@elonmusk Most Americans do not know that the US census currently counts, for purposes of voting power, all people in a district, regardless of citizenship! Senate Democrats just voted unanimously to defeat an amendment that would have stopped counting illegals for congressional seat apportionment and electoral college (presidential) votes. Since illegals are mostly in Democrat states, both the House and the Presidential vote are shifted ~5% to the left, which is enough to change the entire balance of power! This is a major reason why the Biden administration is ushering in record levels of illegals and doing so few deportations.

Hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants were directly FLOWN INTO THE US by the Biden administration ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ X owner Elon Musk has once again spoken out on the Biden Administration’s complete neglect to secure the Southern border, and facilitation of mass illegal immigration, warning that with the amount of unvetted foreigners being freely allowed into the country, there is sure to be some major catastrophic event being planned. In a post to X, Musk wrote “This administration is both importing voters and creating a national security threat from unvetted illegal immigrants.” Musk pointed to a Daily Mail article covering an...
