COHEN 4/ I do not believe we knew Felix Sater was behind the Agalarov deal.

COHEN 5/ First, this is hilarious. Second, notice they insert the word "direct" on the collusion question (and Cohen does this himself 20 times or so) because Cohen *does* believe he has *circumstantial* evidence of Trump-Russia collusion.
COHEN 6/ Wait a minute... Cohen says he spoke to "many, many people who all claimed that they had [a compromising Trump tape]"...At some point wouldn't Trump say "stop looking, it doesn't exist"? Why does Cohen keep looking and looking and talking to people who say they have one?
COHEN 7/
COHEN 8/ Interesting. So Giorgi is working hard behind the scenes to make sure the Agalarov tape he's heard about (Trump kompromat) doesn't come to the U.S. And Cohen admits Giorgi talks with Trump and might have had a separate line of communication Cohen didn't know about.

Musk is now a bigger fount for toxic, self-aggrandizing bullshit than P.T. Barnum ever was.

He’s an utter 🤡—and that’s both a historical and provable fact. There’s nothing non-journalistic about observing when a man has become infamous for his rank nonsense and foolish gambits. Image
But that’s only the start of the story.

PROOF has outlined—with full sourcing—how Musk for years avoided politics on the advice of his father, and for years avoided revealing his far-right ideologies for fear they would destroy his business empire.

He was right. It’s happening.
In other words, he *knew* his far-right ideologies would be grotesque to consumers.

He *knew* that if he entered politics in America, those ideologies would cause him to become an instant target for hate from a majority of patriotic Americans—who unlike him believe in democracy.

Musk has been told—repeatedly—that this is a lie. The global population is rising and will continue to rise until 2100, then it’ll decline slightly. Many countries, JUST NOT MAJORITY WHITE ONES, have over-replacement birth rates. Musk focuses on a small number of white nations.
So no, there are NO experts in this field who agree humanity is dying. There are NO experts who have a longterm underpopulation concern. There are NO experts who agree with Musk. The ONLY people concerned are white supremacists who worry white nations may become SLIGHTLY smaller.
But his lie is worse than this. He KNOWS and has been TOLD that rich, developed, often—but certainly not exclusively—majority-white nations see a birth rate decline BECAUSE of their wealth. That’s normal. It does not mean those nations will collapse, just reduce slightly in size.

(🧵1/3) Time to clear some things up.

1. Elon Musk has many biographers; none are “official.”
2. I’m a Musk biographer; I don’t use Musk as a source because he’s a known pathological liar.
3. My second Musk biography (first is below) arrives in 2026.

4. Grok is aware I’m a Musk biographer, as is the world (see my bio excerpt below, from my website). But Grok, by Musk’s design, sometimes struggles to access Substack—which confuses it about my status.
5. I’m a multiple-time NYT-bestselling biographer of public figures. Image
(🧵3/3)

6. Elongelicals have a favorite Musk biographer—Isaacson—as Walt tells them what they want to hear. He just repeats what Elon says and is himself a fanboy. My methodology is different: I’m a curatorial journalist.
7. You want fan-fiction? Go with Walt. For the truth, me.

We have due process for a reason.

ICE used to be a legal operation. Now—without it ever confirming for a judge it has the right person and has a reasonable basis to take irrevocable government action—this is a kidnapping.

If you see something like this, report it to the police.
What the police can do is contact ICE to confirm it conducted an operation that resulted in the seizure of a specific person.

If ICE refuses to confirm the seizure of that person at that time, the police have a Kidnapping on their hands.

They'll be required to act accordingly.
If ICE confirms the seizure of that person at that time, the police can ask when the court hearing for the seized person is so friends and/or family reporting a Kidnapping will be able to attend and speak on the seized person's behalf. If ICE refuses to provide the information...

More than any two men in America, Trump and Musk target for vicious retribution anyone who crosses them.

And more than any two men in America, Trump and Musk complain about media using anonymous sources to report on them.

Just take a moment and sit with those two statements.
The question here is why Trump and Musk have such a penchant for *creating* the phenomena they'll later loudly claim to be victims of.

One answer is that they're both malignant narcissistic sociopaths who can't process empathy and therefore can't put themselves in others' shoes.
But the other answer I have found, as a biographer of both men, is that they desperately need public attention to be on them at all times. They need a piece of all our lives in a way that is actually *clinical*—narcissists literally don't know how to process being widely ignored.
