    They should literally be running on this.

    We know what immigrants are stealing citizens jobs. Or mooching off the system. It’s him.

    Things to investigate, what am I missing?:

    1. His brother’s admission that they fraudulently used their student visas to start businesses, and if he didn’t admit it on his naturalization application, then that’s grounds for denaturalization.
    2. Election fraud related to his promises to pay for votes, and other suspicious statements.
    3. Countless privacy, data security and other laws violated at DOGE.
    4. His associations with Jeffrey Epstein.
    5. Use of his controlling power at his companies to benefit himself and defraud investors.
    6. Lies to the NHTSA and consumers about the capabilities and safety claims about Tesla cars.
    7. Illicit preferences and treatment for his companies as corrupt payment for funding the GOP electoral machine.

    That’s in 4 minutes off the top of my head. I’m sure there’s more. Hakeem Jeffries, you can have that list for free to start with - or, hey, better yet, let’s get someone else who actually will take some action to lead the House.

    How many Benghazi sessions did Clinton have to endure? Gonna need like 10 times as many for him. Just hours and hours of time wasting for him, hopefully with lots of temper tantrums and perjury.

      I love it. Yeah, Hillary had to deal with a lot of complete nonsense lawfare over that, and it was entirely made-up bullshit over 4 dead Americans. Because the cons knew she was going to run.

      The least we could do is have some shitstain like Elon endure 100x that over real stuff. Because what he (and Vought) have willfully done is likely going to (probably has already) kill far, far, far more than just 4 people.

    Please, please, please yank his citizenship.

    Dems, when you get accused of partisanship, the move is to deny it and carry on with your plans. Ignore the naysayers and achieve your goals. DO NOT run away while whining about how the media is unfair.

    I’m certain they’ll get around to it, we’ll see a strongly worded report in 24 months.

    Instead, let’s rescind Musk’s citizenship for fraud on his application.

      now

      That’s his whole problem…

      Last minute media blitzs work against neoliberals because that’s the same thing neoliberals have to resort to if they want to win elections

      Otherwise their platforms and candidates can’t stand up to the scrutiny.

      With progressive policy/candidates, the more voters hear about them, the more popular they get.

      That’s why every state Dem party operating at campaign levels the last 18 months resulted in a shit ton of progressives making it to the general and winning special elections.

      Republicans can’t compete against that, which is the entire reason why in February of 2025 the DNC pivoted away from neoliberalism.

      Absolutely no one should be surprised by what’s about to happen over the next two years. But they will be because billionaire owned media will keep denying it’s happening, and then try to credit neoliberals after it happens.

    Yes. As he should be. But so many people are in the running for being on the top of that list.

    Asshats like Russ Vought need to be on there, too. Sure, Musk was having idiotic teenagers with no qualifications doing their “doge” bullshit, but it’s Vought behind a lot of this.

    Get that motherfucker on the stand.

    Same with Carr. And Hegseth. And Bondi. And Blanche…there are just so many motherfuckers that need to pay.

    Good. That whole thing was a clusterfuck at best, and more likely sabotage and treason (I’m not just throwing that word about – he’s been working closely with Putin through all that, whether he was a collaborator or a useful idiot, and undermining US government institutions on behalf of a rival power is the definition of treason).

    The potential probe will focus on Musk’s massive political donations to Republicans and his past role leading President Donald Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency.

    I don’t know that there’s anything necessarily illegal about his donations? But I think in the previous election he was paying people to vote for Trump, and sending people pre-filled ballots, both of which are clearly illegal.

    Representative Greg Casar raised concerns about potential conflicts of interest, questioning if Musk’s donations aim to secure additional federal government contracts for SpaceX and Tesla.

    This has to be the biggest problem with Musk. Although again, not sure if there was anything strictly illegal done there. If there was, it was probably on the part of Trump, who has complete immunity from prosecution for Presidential acts.

    So I remain pessimistic…

      Both giving and receiving bribes is illegal.

      Of course, if we’re talking immunity, though, Trump could decide to pardon Musk at any time, and there’s nothing anybody could do about it.
