Again, you may not like the UFC thing at the White House, but the moment you hung a giant pride flag from the columns and had half-naked “trans” activists exposing themselves on the lawn, you lost all right to complain about desecration.

[Race @multiplanet1]

Elon Musk got rejected by Netscape. He walked into the lobby, was too shy to talk to anyone, and walked out. Never got the job.

At his first company Zip2, the board demoted him. Twice. They refused to let him be CEO.

He got fired from PayPal as CEO while flying to his own honeymoon. The board voted him out mid air.

He almost died of malaria in 2000. Ten days in intensive care. Lost 45 pounds. A day from death.

His first child died at 10 weeks old.

His first rocket exploded. Falcon 1, flight one. Burned on the pad.

His second rocket exploded.

His third rocket exploded. The last of his money was nearly gone.

Tesla nearly went bankrupt in 2008. The closest he ever came to a nervous breakdown.

Both companies almost died on the same Christmas Eve.

He was sued by investors. Mocked by the people who built cars before him.

His childhood heroes, the astronauts who inspired him, testified against his company to Congress.

The Cybertruck window shattered on live stage in front of the world.

He overpaid for Twitter by his own admission and watched its value collapse.

He was beaten unconscious as a child and thrown down a flight of stairs.

He has said he goes to sleep alone and it kills him.

He failed in public, over and over, for thirty years.

He is the richest man in the history of the world.

The difference was never the absence of failure. It was the refusal to stop after it.

@CCPISASSH0E Why do we need such an obtuse memorial anyway? What do they purport to be memorializing? 🤔

[Christian Toto @HollywoodInToto]

He wasn't MAGA. He wasn't cruel. His house burned down and his city betrayed him.

So let's crap on him on national TV, says this late-night clown

Please share if you're as sickened by this as I am

[Oversight Committee @GOPoversight]

ActBlue's CEO published an op-ed on why she's pleading the 5th today during @HouseAdmin's hearing.

They allegedly allowed foreign donations to Democrats. They lied to Congress about it. Now they want to stay silent.

We will keep digging for the truth.

Useful Idiot Kristen Welker's PATHETIC defense of California election fraud DEBUNKED

Larry O'Connor takes Welker to task for the rigged system she's dismissing.

"The real scandal coming out of California right now is quite possibly every single thing we are seeing transpire before our very eyes is 100% legal."

O'Connor explains that anyone with a functional brain can see what's happening in California and know that the election is being stolen.

"You can steal something and not break the law. And that's what's happening here. They are stealing it without actually breaking the law."

As a former Californian resident, O'Connor breaks down the entire process.

"This is the election system in California as we speak. Anybody who is a registered voter gets a ballot mailed to them, and you register to vote because you walk into a DMV, and you automatically get registered no matter what. And as you know, California leads the nation in giving driver's licenses and registrations to illegal immigrants, people who are in the country illegally, and they're getting driver's ed. They're getting commercial driver's license in California right now. And when you go through the process, they register you to vote. And there is no check for citizenship. There's no check for ID, there's no check for anything. And they'll register to vote. And you're on the voter rolls."

O'Connor even stated he hasn't lived in Los Angeles County since 2012, and he's STILL being notified by email that his ballot has been mailed to him.

"I don't know who's got it. Whatever address I used to live in has has the Lawrence O'Connor ballot, and I'd love to know if I voted. I probably have without anyone knowing it."

And then comes the issue of ballot harvesting...

"In California, individuals can go and collect ballots from anyone. They can go and knock on the doors and say, 'Hey, give me your ballot. I'll take care of it for you' legally. And those people who knock on your door and collect your ballot, they call it 'ballot harvesting,' they can work for political entities. They can work for political action committees."

"They can go and they can pick and choose what ballots they want to collect. And they bring them in or they don't. And every mail in ballot, there is no ID required for every single mail in or drop box ballot. All you've got to do is sign the ballot. But of course, it would be discriminatory to allow somebody who is illiterate and can't write their name to not vote."

"So when you sign your ballot, you can just make a mark. You can make a smiley face if you want, but it's witnessed. Don't worry. There's a little box for a witness to sign. But of course, there's no name associated with a witness. It's just a signature. And oh, by the way, when those ballots are collected, the witness signature isn't checked."

"They just check that there is a signature for a witness. So, of course, there's nothing keeping people from making a little mark on the signature for the voter. And then that same person squiggling the witness box, putting it in an envelope and then having those votes come in. Oh, what else are they doing in California? Well, they allow ballots that come in as late as a week after Election Day to be counted. That doesn't seem right. Oh. It's okay. The ballot had to be mailed or put into a Dropbox or delivered by Election Day. But of course, if it's not postmarked, they'll overlook that. If there's no postmark at all on the envelope, they'll just look at whatever date you put on it and they'll trust you, and then they'll count the ballots."

"Every single thing I just described for you is accurate and legal. They're not breaking the law. They're following the laws that they have written so that they can get away with this garbage and everyone knows it."

[Secretary Markwayne Mullin @SecMullinDHS]

I’m not surprised you would say something like this, @GovSherrillNJ.

On June 8th, I personally granted you access to the facility as an act of good faith— despite you having exactly ZERO federal oversight authority. Of course, you’re still trying to turn Delaney Hall into a political football for the radical left.

You were told BEFORE you went in you would not have the ability to speak to detainees. This is a federal facility, Governor. You are NOT federally elected.

I suggest you and your health inspectors spend more time at your New Jersey state detention facilities. Delaney Hall has 2x more medical personnel per detainee than NJ state prison, and at least 2x as much square footage. Detainees are also 2x more likely to die in NJ state custody. ⬇️

[Wall Street Apes @WallStreetApes]

Here we go, the Los Angeles Times is admitting that yes, tens of thousands of mail in ballots did get processed for only Mayor Karen Bass and Nithya Raman but it was “a glitch”

They say the system just “glitched” for a minute and didn’t process any ballots for Spencer Pratt but really there were ballots for Spencer, they just didn’t get processed during the “glitch”

No, we don’t believe you. This is fraud and Democrats are cheating

“It was the result of a lag in an automated collection of the data in which there was one data collection that captured votes in a single batch of votes for Bass and Raman, and then about 1 minute later, the collection of the rest of that same batch of votes — Folks I spoke to also said there is no fraud. But again, there was no batch of votes without any Pratt votes. There was sort of a 1-minute variation between the upload of Bass and Raman votes and Pratt votes on some media websites.

Officials and others who have reviewed the data say that is not any proof of fraud. There was no fraud.”

Again, yeah right. We need a federal audit into California elections

[The🐰FOO @PolitiBunny]

So either you understand why Alabama was allowed and Virginia wasn’t (different laws) and you’re a liar, or you don’t understand how this works and you’re a moron.

[Tim Bode @Tim_Bode]

No comment @GovSherrillNJ ?

[Nick Sortor @nicksortor]

@DHSgov One of our reporters, who got locked up in a New Jersey jail while documenting the chaos outside Delaney Hall a few nights ago, asked for toilet paper after being in a holding cell for 18 hours.

They told him to use his hand.

Wanna condemn that, @GovSherrillNJ?

[Western Lensman @WesternLensman]

Scott Pelley fired.

This commencement address last year was peak Pelley:

The drama. The theatrics. The self-important preening and performative outrage. The sermonizing. The propaganda.

Scott can now bring this kind of energy to Substack and hits on the Jim Acosta podcast.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Exactly right

[Tim Bode @Tim_Bode]

@ChuckEcken75226 @PlatinumKey13 Correct. It hit the bill of his helmet. 😁

[Mary Katharine Ham @mkhammer]

A reminder that Alfonsi was reporter on a 13-minute 60 Minutes feature this year that opened w a German police raid on a man’s apartment for posting a cartoon they didn’t like. There were no critical questions for the German speech police and zero pro-speech figures interviewed.

[Tim Bode @Tim_Bode]

@DavidAd65794047 The problem here isn't Matt. The problem here is that *you* seem more concerned about someone shedding light on the problem than the existence of the problems themselves.

[Western Lensman @WesternLensman]

Spencer Pratt schools NBC reporter who wants to know if he’s running for LA Mayor just to promote his “brand."

Reporter: “Man, your brand is hotter than ever!"

Pratt initially talks about getting in the race after losing everything in the fires.

But then he gets to the real-life risk his decision carries — safety concerns for him and his family:

“Running for mayor is not fun. I have to have 24 hour security with the amount of death threats. My kid now has a security next to him when he goes in the ocean, because psychos come to the beach."

"This is not fun fighting DSA socialists in the city of L.A. So anybody that really is paying attention, politics is not fun."

"And now I'm deep in politics fighting a machine that is against the truth."

They keep trying to question his motives. It’s not working.
