The only explanation for this is that Trump basically milked Musk's popularity with dumb people and kept him around until Musk was no longer useful. Musk on the other hand thought he was going to control Trump to be a shadow president on his crazy drug-induced power trip but got a reality check and now his ego is hurt and is making a fuss. I doubt this will gain any traction, to build a political party is extremely expensive, Reps and Dems have hundreds of rich people behind them for greasing the wheels, plus brand recognizability and organized people and community presence. The most we can tell from this is that billionaires still need a political front to push their agenda and see how many times can Musk fail without losing his fortune.

If they do and Trump gets it, we know how far the far right has compromised Europe. It's a coup in slow motion so it's good to know at which point we are right now.

At this point she is trolling with legislation, this is not even legislation for financial profit, she is just doing it to fuck with the minds of people that support green energy transition against climate change. Pure malicious glee. I hope she faces mob justice at this point.

It's not a matter of accuracy even, if for any two natural numbers x < y it holds x - y = 0 then x = y, which is a contradiction. So this is basic consistency requirement, basically sabotaging any effort to teach kids math.

Hopefully he meets a peaceful end with an appropriate tie around his neck that shows how much people appreciate his life's works.

This is part of the tactic "have the cake and it eat too". He did his government tour to gain favor with Trump but damaged his brand, and now is just providing friendly opposition to capture the MAGA crowd that does not like the debt ceiling going up while trying to repair his image. It also aligns with the general chaotic energy that floods the news with meaningless drivel that occupies working memory of adults.

Basically just herding the sheep.

Meh, these type of infighting doss not mean anything. Trump is a miser that exerts pressure by complaining about his underlings. The supreme court has done it's job to undermine US democracy by letting a criminal run for president.

On the same note, Musk criticizing the BBB is also just Musk's style of overly criticizing his employees when things don't go his way. It is more of a disorientation tactic, the same chaotic energy that keeps producing meaningless news that overflow the working memory of adults. It's all part of the routine.
