A lot of things happened. Here are some of the things. This is TPM’s Morning Memo.
Turning Point USA leader Charlie Kirk, who was temporarily suspended by Twitter in March for violating its hateful conduct rules, triumphantly announced on Thursday that he was “back” on Twitter “Due to New Management” several days after Tesla CEO/”free speech” messiah Elon Musk made a $44 billion deal to buy the social media giant.
The Commie yachts won’t sell. What proper billionaire would buy a used yacht? Nope. Give some of them to the military.

What about the black helicopters, FEMA trailers, and Jade Helm 15 or whatever?
We used to think they were just afraid of black guys (particularly in the Whitehouse), now they’re afraid of white guys who aren’t afraid of black guys.
