So now we are going to have government by extortion with Musk running the extortion.

I am seriously asking. Can he be deported as a clear and present danger to America?

My trump voting bro proudly says he watches the news. Some sort of national fact checker may not only be necessary, but welcomed as his voters begin to wake up to the outrageous lies they believed.

So many opportunities for grift and only 4 years do it all. Trump realized he needed help. And Musk paid a good price to be at the front of the line.

Voters who view themselves as MAGA soldiers willing to unite to defeat incumbents of their own party they regard as RINOs.

What Musk or Bongino or Levin or anyone else says is meaningless without the ability to motivate the group-think of those primary voters.

It is a demonstrably successful political movement, whatever damage they might be doing to the country.
