Tony,

Mr Musk, who became an American citizen in 2002, has resisted efforts to label his politics - calling himself "half-Democrat, half-Republican", "independent".
That doesn't mean he's shied away from political debate.


The Britain of today is not the Britain of the 18th Century.
Britain today is arguably America's greatest ally.
It's part of the Five Eyes Alliance intelligence network...along with the US, Canada, New Zealand, and Australia.
Also part of AUKUS...(strange goings on at AUKUS lately, seems someone might be getting cold feet).

I love the concept of electric cars.
Quiet, no oil changes, no pistons, no mess etc.
I don't love the reality of them today.
Battery fires.
The time and dramas charging them in public.
Low resale value
etc etc etc

Elon was a fairly standard OCD eccentric entrepreneur until about three years ago.  Then Xavier rejected him and changed his last name.  And gender.  Elon got butthurt that all 12-15 of his children (which he had with women he cheated on constantly) didn't adore his beautiful narcissistic self and decided that progressive liberal ideology (which he previously was okay with) was to blame for this horrific lapse in Daddy Worship.  So he started slurping up Far Right garbage and regurgitating it, then bought himself a social media petri dish so he could create his own foul bacteria culture.  He is a stunted adolescent, like his new bestest buddy.

Sky News:

"Anti-war activists to descend om Melbourne."

Top journalist, bemoaning the fact that bambuworld is basically unarmed and a sitting duck, in reality totally dependent on America:

"In future, a US President could say:
I've got better things to do than defend Australia, a funny euro country of 26 million people sitting on the edge of Asia".
"Where will we be then!"

Horrible news for RedDick: inflation has dropped below 3%, and wages continue to rise faster than inflation.

Famous Amos just died, he was a great man, his cookies were great, but he went way beyond that, and he used his money to support Literacy Programs to teach people how to read. Rest in Peace to Famous Amos.

Salute,

God does not want us to build a wall between us and Mexico, but rather God wants us to help the poor and the oppressed and the orphans in Mexico, and in Latin America.

I went to Mexico with Youth For Christ as a teen with students from Quartz Hill High School, and it was one of the greatest experiences of my life, we brought money and gifts to some orphans in Mexico, and to some people living in a garbage dump in Mexico, to share the love of Christ. That is what God wants for us to do.

When I was homeless I tried to join the Peace Corps to go to Mexico to help the poor, but at that time it was a recession and they already had enough volunteers, they were only accepting people with a Master's Degree at that time. But, I would have went to Mexico and volunteered for free to help the poor in Mexico if they would have accepted me.

We do not need walls, and we need to help the orphans and the poor instead, and we cannot let any asshole cartel members stop us from bringing the love of Christ to the poor children in Mexico. I am not afraid of the cartels, they are weak, and God is strong.

We need to help the poor children in Latin America. That is what God wants.

Salute,

Tony V.
