It's interesting that MAGA influencers have been violating X's TOS for a long time. Elon Musk has been letting them get away with it, probably to help Trump win the election.

Today, Elon got pissed and canceled the whole crew. Now he's royally despised by them. 1/
I've been listening to the "affiliates" of ConservativeOG who lost their blue checks. Mostly, they are just screaming at each other about whether or not Laura Loomer doxed someone. 2/ Image
Alex Jones' partner Owen Shroyer lost his blue check. White nationalist Nick Fuentes mansplained how they all got used by Elon. His voice is like fingernails on a chalkboard.

Fuentes eventually dominates the conversation. Charles Johnson offers to pay his legal fees. 3/
But "ConservativeOG" talked about his "website" where his "affiliates" work. So, what is that? His profile lists a PAC website, not a company. 4/ conservativepac.comImage
In the fine print, it does talk about "affiliates" of this SuperPAC, but not the "company" he mentioned. 5/ Image
ConservativePac is a small PAC based in Atlanta. 6/ Image
All of its money comes from an LLC in Wyoming. 7/ Image
This looks like the founder. 8/ Image
He's also part of the company "Connect Social" and--ah--now it starts to fall into place. 9/ Image
This is a media marketing company posing as a PAC, which Elon Musk has been platforming to help Trump get elected. It's tied to Alex Jones. The content they push is paid media with paid influencers. 10/ Image
Bottom line: Elon Musk let paid Trump influencers manipulate reach on X, violating X's terms of service, until they pissed him off today.
You can figure out who is working for Greg Disser (ConservativeOG) by looking for anyone who lost their blue check today.

Not a word from @FBIDirectorKash about the Nazi group here in Washington state who attacked a military base to steal weapons, hitting a soldier in the head with a hammer.

They've been selling military weapons online for years and have a thousand followers on Instagram. 1/ Image
Their business logo is a Nazi symbol. 2/ Image
And they sell gear celebrating war criminals. They are veterans of the elite 75th Ranger Regiment. 3/ Image

This is some of the best intelligence work and reporting I've read in a long time. Elon, of course, doesn't want you to read it, so I'm including a gift link further down so he won't censor it.

These are all Russian spies posing as Brazilians. 👇 Image
They were discovered by U.S. counterintelligence in 2022, back when it wasn't run by Trump's people, who promote Russia.

One of these spies was set to be hired at the ICC, where he could prevent Putin from being accused of war crimes. 2/
They were tracked by the same organization in Brazil that investigated Bolsonaro's coup attempt.

The spies were able to acquire legitimate Brazilian birth certificates due to a loophole in the system.

Then they traveled. 3/

Good Lord. The DC U.S. Attorney posted this today. 1/ Image
Here's your answer, @EagleEdMartin. 2/ Image

"I’ve been next to suicide attacks. I’ve been the target of an Al-Qaeda plot to kidnap me. And throughout all of this, I felt that my sacrifices meant something. What I found in the last two weeks is, not only do those sacrifices not matter, but that we’re vilified without any evidence or reason for that." 2/
"The pause on foreign assistance... From a humanitarian and development and stabilization perspective, we know what that means. It means people are dying." 3/

Once again, "Wired" explains what's going on. Impressive. 1/ Image
"Elez’s privileges include the ability not just to read but to write code on two of the most sensitive systems in the US government... Housed on a secure mainframe, these systems control, on a granular level, government payments that in their totality amount to more than a fifth of the US economy." 2/ wired.com/story/elon-mus…
Yikes. A 25-year-old who was hired last week now has access to one-fifth of the U.S. economy. 3/

It indeed appears that Siqi Chen dumped a half million dollars into Trump's wallet. Image
Trump's wallet now has close to $200 billion in it. This is the account that owns 80% of Trump's meme coin. It's a money vacuum for Trump. 2/ Image
Anyone know who owns these accounts? Trump got $83M and $148M from them in the last day. 3/ Image
