Elon Musk’s Dodgy DOGE Warriors and Deceits
The more I learn about Elon Musk and some of the false claims of his conflicted DOGE warriors, the more skeptical and alarmed I become.
The Pentagon Heroes Who Derailed Elon Musk
A shoutout to the brave sources who leaked to the New York Times that the Pentagon was set to give Elon Musk a briefing on the U.S. military’s plan for any war that might break out with China. Although President Trump and others in his administration dismissed the report as “fake news,” here’s why I believe it was accurate—and a rare instance where I regard Beltway leakers as national heroes.
