"No one voted for Elon Musk." (They did however vote for Donald Trump who promised repeatedly to have Elon Musk root out wasteful spending in our government.)
What a difference it makes, having an actual Commander-in-Chief:

BREAKING: In December 2024, the @USArmy had its best recruiting number in 12 years.
In January 2025, the Army hit its best recruiting number in 15 YEARS.
BOTTOM LINE: America's youth want to serve under the bold & strong "America First" leadership of @realDonaldTrump

CIA Director Ratcliffe -- what sweet words those are -- announced that he offered buyouts to the incompetents and traitors at the CIA.
Trump is warning that tomorrow is the last day to accept his generous offer of eight months pay in exchange for voluntarily leaving the government. Because after that, he's just firing people, and they can collect unemployment like Non-Governmental Peons have to do.
The Trump administration warned federal workers Tuesday that the "majority" of government agencies will be downsized and that a buyout offer extended last week will not be renewed.
The so-called "Deferred Resignation" program offers more than 2 million federal employees unwilling to comply with a return-to-office mandate about eight months of pay and benefits if they resign before midnight Thursday.
"There will NOT be an extension of this program," read an email to government workers from the Office of Personnel Management.
A new book is pushing the lie that Kamala Harris really wanted to do Joe Rogan's show -- she's not an idiot who's afraid of embarrassing herself without friendly editing, you see -- but Joe Rogan spurned her every effort, because he wanted to rig the election for Trump.
Christian Toto reports that not only is Joe Rogan saying this is a lie, but also that the "authors" of this book never bothered to even ask him for comment on the defamatory lies they were publishing about him.
Rogan's theory is that her young aides lied to Kamala about Rogan not being interested, because, in their stupid hyperideological woke view, going on Rogan would "normalize" and "platform" him, and they objected to that.
"We have all the receipts, by the way," Rogan added. "Of course, I have a whole list of conversations that took place ... I think it's someone trying to cover their ass for the fact that she never did it, and if she did do it, it might have had a positive effect. [If] we got along great, and [it improved the] 'young male vote' things could have been different."
I think he's wrong about that. I think Kamala Harris is a deeply stupid woman who at least has the sense to know she cannot survive a long conversation without a friendly editor to knit her word-salads into something palatable.
This is actionable. Part of your defense to a defamation lawsuit is claiming you had no malice. But part of showing that you didn't have malice is going through normal journalistic processes.
Processes like "reaching out to the target of your hit piece for comment."
The authors of this defamation didn't bother doing that, Rogan says.
"[The authors] supposedly talked to 150 different people [about] what happened with her coming on the show. They didn't talk to us, and which is kind of crazy. They didn't even ask. But they said things that just weren't true." Rogan said on his Jan. 4 episode.
I didn't feel like covering the Carlos/"Karla" situation so I'm glad Ed Driscoll did.
The transgender pretending to be a woman "starred" in what I'm told is one of the worst movies of all time. Hollywood really wants to go bankrupt, so they showered 13 Oscar nominations on this piece of shit -- one shy of the record, and two more nominations than The Godfather got -- to say f*** you to all normal, mentally-healthy people.
That much you know.
What you might not know is that someone in the nasty media went digging through this transgender's old tweets to cancel him, and found him saying Forbidden Truths like, get this, George Floyd was just a "drug addict" and "hustler."
St. George?!!? How dare you, sir!
So now, after elevating this no-talent nobody for Woke reasons, they're now cancelling him for Woke reasons.
Instead, the trade press has attacked Gascón for social media posts uncovered by a renegade freelancer, Sarah Hagi, who identifies as a black Muslim and who is Canadian but writes hit-pieces for U.S. media. The trade press has heroized Hagi for exposing dated "racist tweets" by Gascón. Gascón's posts ranged from criticizing Black Lives Matter and questioning the credibility of the George Floyd scandal to what Hagi claims were endorsements of Adolf Hitler.
So a Muslim in a hijab attacks a trans performer who identifies as a woman yet doesn't kowtow to all the liberal pieties. It's an almost humorous fulfillment of the prediction that the Left will eat itself....
But the unserious Hollywood trade press remains trivial. Variety went for standard left-Hollywood accusations. Daniel D'Addario wrote a piece on the Gascón affair, with a headline calling Gascón "the Donald Trump of Oscar Season." D'Addario mentions President Trump nearly as often as he mentions Gascón. A former television critic for Time, D'Addario uses prejudiced phrases -- "the politics of prejudice emanating from President Trump," "our current, entertainment-obsessed president" -- even digging-up the Obama birth certificate controversy and the tired comparisons of Trump to Hitler. D'Addario practices code phrases the same way that Gascón's old tweets, according to Hagi, issued "dog whistles."
Variety and the Hollywood Reporter and The Wrap betray their own integrity by waging industry vendettas against Gascón and Trump as if both were infidels to the DIE (Diversity, Inclusion, Equity) cause.
What makes this fracas serious is the underlying media mania for cancellation and censorship -- of a performer and a president. It's an extension of the angry zeal that has overtaken the media in general, from legacy publications to the internet upstarts that all mistake partisan activism for journalism. The idea is to effect the revolution in gender and identity that is part of the social transformation progressives demand be installed in our language and thinking. The Academy's endorsement of Karla or Carlos Gascón has exposed the trade media, transforming it into a medium of spite.
They can all go, literally, to Hell. Boycott their garbage movies. Not another dime.
Speaking of mentally-ill garbage people with no moral center who are no longer culturally relevant: Kanye West stripped his current wife/consort down to the skin and showed her naked, much-altered body to the press corps. Note this clip contains nudity. He really wants us to believe he's so totally over Kim Kardashian that he's had a plastic surgeon cut his current consort to look just like Kim Kardashian, and has her exposing herself in public just like Kim Kardashian.
I get it, dude. You're totally over that skank. It's so obvious.
And speaking of media figures with absolutely no remaining credibility or audience: Andrea Mitchell has finally left MSNBC. I imagine she'll be doing some podcast collabs with Jim Acosta, Chuck Todd, Don Lemon, Jennifer Rubin, and all the rest of the Unwanted.

CASE DISMISSED in Ashley Biden Diary Matter
The US Attorney in SDNY has dropped the case against Project Veritas journalists who were raided and persecuted for investigating the diary of Joe Biden's daughter. After years of threats, no charges will be filed.
From the very start, this was a bogus investigation that exposed the shameful lengths the former administration would go to live up to Joe Biden's line that "no one fuc*s with a Biden."
The Biden DOJ acted like criminals - surveilling our newsroom, confiscating dozens of devices, forcing us to spend millions to defend ourselves against our own government.
This unconstitutional attack set a dangerous precedent that the courts were unwilling to stop.
It is good that the new administration put an end to it, and they should act to hold those responsible accountable.
No American journalists should ever again be targeted for their work.
Shock: Deep State parasite Billy Kristol, who literally is on the payroll of the Deep State, says he prefers the Deep State to actual elected, responsive representative government.
Who could've guessed.
The North American Man-Boy Lincoln Association spreads disinformation, and flirts with actual insurrection, by calling the duly-elected government a "coup":
Democrats are calling upon their most psychopathic antifa-aligned shock troops to "fight in the streets" and go to "war"
This response to to the insurrectionary representative who calls for "war:"

She is not wrong: They are at war against Elon's effort to eliminate waste, fraud, and abuse--because their entire professional-activist apparatus is dependent upon waste, fraud, and abuse of taxpayer funds. Losing access to that cashflow is an existential threat.
These people had better be careful. Let me remind them that the last time a politician "incited" his followers into violence, he was hounded by four separate criminal cases and all of his lawyers and friends were hounded as well.
We watched what you did with the trumped-up fake "insurrection." If you think we're not frothing at the mouth to use the full force of government to ground you into a fine pulp, you're deluded.
I want you to riot. Do it. Do it.
You say we're "fascists." Okay. Well give us the pretext to come after you, and we'll show you how "fascist" we can be using your New Norms against you.
