LaMouffette's JournalFirst Twitter, now MSNBC? Melon Musk must be stopped. But how???
Another ominous news report about Musk's and Trump's efforts to consolidate power and control the media:
From CNN today:
Elon Musk has called MSNBC the utter scum of the Earth. He has said the channel peddles puerile propaganda. Just a few days ago he said, MSNBC is going down. And now he is posting memes about buying the channel.
Conventional wisdom holds that Musk the worlds richest man and key Donald Trump ally and his friends are just joking. But Musks posts are adding to the anxiety that MSNBC staffers are feeling about the reelection of Donald Trump and the recently announced spinoff of Comcasts cable channels.
I spent Sunday on the phone with sources to gauge what might be going on. I learned that more than one benevolent billionaire with liberal bonafides has already reached out to acquaintances at MSNBC to express interest in buying the cable channel. The inbound interest was reassuring, one of the sources said, since it showed that oppositional figures like Musk (who famously bought Twitter to blow it up) would not be the only potential suitors.

That Spoonamore guy who wrote the "Duty to Warn" letter is going to be on Thom Hartmann in about 10 minutes.
Even Thom said at the start of his show today that he was skeptical and had reservations about Spoonamore's allegations, so yes, this could be just a big ol' conspiracy theory. Still, I want to see what he has to say.
Mango Mussolini filed 62 lawsuits contesting the results of the 2020 election. Why doesn't Kamala do the same???
I posted this question earlier in response to another post about Spoonamore's "Duty to Warn" letter to Kamala Harris.
If she asks for a recount and is denied, then she should file lawsuits in all of the swing states. Democracy itself is on the line, here. We will not survive another four years of Trump, and who is to say that he will leave the White House in four years after he's termed out?
With Trump as president and Tulsi Gabbard as head of the Department of National Security, we are toast, all buttered up and handed on a silver tray to Putin.
C'mon, Kamala! When we fight, we win, remember????
This is a long shot, but maybe the shock nominations of Matt Gaetz and Tulsi Gabbard will make Repub Congress members
NOT acquiesce to Trump's demand for recess appointments. Yeah, I know, I'm dreaming. They will all fall in line, except for a concerned Susan Collins and the furrow-browed Lisa Murkowski.
I almost never miss the Rachel Maddow show, but I missed this one in which she called out the weird remarks by
Mango Mussolini during his rallies where he tells his cult members that they don't have to vote because he already has all the votes that he needs. It certainly sounds like they had a foolproof strategy in place for stealing the election, that is, ALMOST foolproof since Donnie Dementia seems to be spilling the beans:
Just googled it: There are "only" 813 billionaires in the United States. There are over 345 million of the rest of us.
The billionaire ruling class's greatest fear is that the people they are screwing over suddenly realize they are being screwed over and rise up against them. Hence, the trillion-dollar marketing scheme to brainwash Republican voters and divide our citizens and make us hate each other and blame each other and not the billionaires who are truly to blame. And, of course, this is also why autocrats from Putin to Xi to our very own Trump do everything they can to destroy the free press.
We Democrats figured this out a long time ago. But Repub voters are still in the dark. How do we enlighten them?
I urge everyone here to google "Underground Media During World War 2" to get ideas of how we can each start disseminating our own truthful counter-propaganda in our own communities to try to give our brainwashed Repub neighbors the information that they will never, ever hear on Fox News, OAN, rightwing radio and social media, etc.
Our counter-propaganda already started during the election when women started posting sticky-notes in women's bathroom stalls to let women know there vote was private.. How about, for example, printing off some copies of Kareem Abdul Jabbar reaction to Mango Mussolini's reelection that someone posted here today and leaving them wherever we can?
I know this is tantamount to a guppy fending off a shark attack, but if enough of us guppies make these small acts of resistance (and large acts whenever we can), it might make a difference.
Kamala did NOTHING wrong. She was, and we are, up against incredibly powerful anti-Democratic Party / anti-democracy
forces, namely, the billionaire class, whose members include Putin, Musk, the Koch network, the Federalist Society, et al. Their goal is clear: everything autocracy, everywhere, all at once. And they're not going to let anything stand in their way.
Kamala did not lose, they WON, with their trillion-dollar "Democrats are evil!" marketing campaign that played out on Fox News, OAN, News Max, over 1,500 conservative radio stations, radical rightwing internet platforms, and, of course, Trump's Republican enablers in Congress.
The billionaires' campaign has been brainwashing Republican voters for years, and now the transformation is complete, much like the end of the cult classic Invasion of the Body Snatchers.
The question now is how on God's green Earth are we going to combat these forces?
What can be done now to protect our nation's top-secret documents from Trump, I mean, the documents he hasn't already
stolen, made copies of, shared with Putin, the Saudis, and Kid Rock, and buried at the golf course with dead Ivanna Trump?
I hope the intelligence community is putting their heads together to try to find some way to safeguard the documents, but I really see no way to keep them out of Benedict Trumpsky's hands.
If Harris had won and we had kept the Senate and won the House, we would've had a chance to try to impose some rules, like don't let a convicted felon and rapist ever become president, but that chance is gone.
I am, quite frankly, terrified.
I think Toddler Trump made his vile remarks about Puerto Rico because he is still butt hurt over the negative press
he received over his "Let Them Use Paper Towels!" political stunt after the devastating hurricane that hit PR. It was a stupid thing for him to do, and he was called out for his stupidity by Puerto Rican government officials, by the press, by Democrats, by late-night comedians. And vindictive Don doesn't get remorseful, he gets revengeful. Hence, the trashing of a beautiful place filled with remarkably resilient and kind people.
What a dick he is. I can . . . not . . . wait for him to get dumped on the garbage heap of history.
I'm thinking that President Harris should replace Merrick Garland with Jack Smith, that is, once Smith has succeeded in
putting Mango Mussolini away in prison for the rest of his miserable life.
