I am all for Elon Musk continuing to invest into failed companies, campaigns and people as well as help run them into the ground. I really have no problem with that.

Enter Elon Musk.
You can bet that Elon is all set to sabotage his own Starlink network over Ukraine to help T rumpp, and ergo Putin in that war. The US needs to pull the plug on ALL contracts and subsidies they’ve given to the ratfuck Musk.

In Texas, it was an intra-,party GOP bloodbath with Abbottt & Paxton seeking revenge for the loss on school vouchers and impeachment, respectively.

Good news? Anti-LGBT gadfly and sexual assault enabler Jared Woodfill lost his bid to unseat Lacey Hull. Not because Hull is all that great, but Wodfill is awful.

Oh - and we missed another opportunity to get rid of Sheila Jackson Lee, but Colin Allred got a solid win to take on Rafael Cruz this fall.

First thing in my “news” feed this morning AP - Who is Jason Palmer? A previously unknown Democrat beats Biden in American Samoa’s Democratic caucus. This is list as a TOP STORY! Even TPM had to throw the American Samoa story out there, but at least TPM also mentioned Vermont. Getting very sick of this nonsense.
