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.

Trump doesn't want the Panama Canal; his gripes about China are illogical.

You know who does want the Panama Canal? Putin.

Putin is upset that Panama has been blocking the transit of sanctioned Russian gas supplies through the canal. This must be what it's all about ‼️ Image
Russia media is also saying that Trump's comments about Greenland work to their advantage and "opens up certain possibilities for our foreign policy." 2/ Image
Why Canada? Canada has been blocking cargo flights into the country because of a Russian threat to blow up planes. Chatham House Fellow Kier Giles explains, "This may be Russia actually preparing the ground for a full-scale attack on a NATO member." 3/

Wow. Elon Musk's lawyers have advised him not to seek a higher security clearance because "Musk would have had to answer questions from the government about his contacts with foreign nationals and drug use."

He's hiding his conversations with Putin. Image
This will change with Trump in power. "SpaceX already has been scouting locations for a secure facility where Musk and other DOGE staffers could review highly classified information." 2/ wsj.com/tech/musk-spac…
Elon Musk believes, “We don’t want to give exact instructions on how to make a nuclear bomb .... but unless there’s a genuine risk to the country, all the information in the government should be public.”

But I don't think he knows how to recognize "genuine risk." 3/

Wait a minute. Has Robert F Kennedy Jr been taking money from Russia? euronews.com/2024/12/04/rob…
I'm reading about Russian meddling in the Romanian election and came across this tidbit (using Google translate). Kennedy acts like he works for Putin, so this would make sense. 2/ Image
The Russian company paying quack medicine pushers was discovered a few years back, but Kennedy wasn't mentioned then. 3/ rferl.org/a/russia-pfize…

Jeffrey Epstein said Trump was "incapable of not trying to cop a feel," and he confirmed model Stacey Williams' account that Trump assaulted her.

According to Michael Wolff, who has a hundred hours of tape with Epstein, Trump and Epstein were in a "true BFF situation." They "palled around for the better of 15 years." 2/
Wolf says Trump and Epstein had a competition over who would sleep with Princess Diana first. (Neither succeeded.) 3/

Elon Musk says we must accept "temporary hardship" once Trump is elected.
I'm listening to his "town hall" now.
"Historically, the force and function for getting rid of bad laws and regulations has been war." --Elon Musk

I was too distracted by the cheap knife and "Patriot Addict Deals" to even notice what he said. So I looked into the company.... 1/
Their Facebook page sells this sort of thing... hopefully not the dog. 2/ Image
You can even get a mini gun that snaps into your belt buckle. 3/ Image
