I'm not saying he's smart, in fact it's apparent he's quite dumb and has been able to fool people into thinking because he's on the spectrum, he's smart. I'm playing devil's advocate.

He's just a sociopathic opportunist, which unfortunate for our country... we uniquely think both stupid psychological indicators like autism and sociopathy make you smart.

He's a product of nepotism with resources, nothing more nothing less.

The problem is, every other institution is compromised. At this rate next year, we'll be 24/7 propagandized until every demographic they want to dilute is drinking the kool-aid too.

If we had one branch of government I would have confidence. If we still had the media, I would have confidence. We only have the people left, and there's enough complacency and apathy that a sizable coalition may NEVER arise if it doesn't arise NOW.

I’m really confused on how exactly he plans to upgrade the FAA and air traffic equipment.

I saw something about them redesigning airspace and FAST. Just laughable. Entire sectors and “flows” of where planes go

Specific arrival and departure routes and spacing sectors.. we just gonna move all those and redesign everything huh

:mjlol:

That chit ain’t happening

This is exactly what it is. A coup is happening right before our eyes in plain sight. Elon doesn't need to be the figurehead to maintain control.

The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) on Saturday said it will stop e-mailing news organizations and reporters with updates about two plane crashes that occurred earlier this week.

Moving forward, the federal agency tasked with investigating transportation-related accidents and disasters said news organizations and reporters will have to follow the agency’s official account on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, where “all NTSB updates about news conferences or other investigative information” will be posted moving forward.

The NTSB did not say why it was choosing to post information about public safety matters exclusively on X, a private social media platform owned by technology mogul Elon Musk, who has curried favor with President Donald Trump in recent weeks. The Desk has filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request with the government agency to learn more about the NTSB’s decision-making process in moving updates to the news media exclusively to X.

Trump has frequently targeted the news media as a whole, criticizing outlets that have covered him in an unflattering light. He recently settled a lawsuit with ABC News over comments made during the political affairs program “This Week” that he considered to be disparaging, and has a pending lawsuit against CBS News over the network’s interview with Vice President Kamala Harris on “60 Minutes” last year.

On Friday, the Department of Defense announced it would evict four news organizations — NBC News, the New York Times, NPR and Politico — from leased offices within the Pentagon. The office space will be turned over to four other organizations — Breitbart News radio, the Huffington Post, One America News Network and the New York Post — some of which have curried favor with Trump and his political allies in recent times. (The Huffington Post is owned by BuzzFeed, which counts Trump ally Vivek Ramaswamy among their minority owners.)
