This serves as advertisement for Alex Gibney’s documentary, Musk, opening October 9. Pass it on.

The Major Social Media Platforms Are All Rejecting Paid Ads for Alex Gibney’s ‘Musk’ (Exclusive)
YouTube, TikTok and Meta have all turned down the trailer for the Oct. 9 doc, citing “political” content. X won't even take Bleecker Street's calls. The distributor is appealing.

What is so frustrating about current media: DC media losing it over Dems & a Twitch streamer—running for no and holding no office—who has zilch name rec outside narrow online circles, while actual USG voices and senior leading Repubs—including those in office!— say the most vile racist stuff daily.

You'd think the fact that the son of the President of the "party of family values" 2nd marriage is to the daughter of Epstein's banker and it was funded by a Rusisan oligarch involved in the mass kidnap of Ukrainian kids during a KGB agent's illegal war Would be bigger news..

Don’t believe the lies. Trump is *not* selling $2.8 billion of bombs for Israel’s genocide. It’s worse. Trump is *giving away* $2.8 billion of bombs for Israel’s genocide. American taxpayers are paying for those bombs.

this is a particularly bad picture for a politician to be in. first of all, he's at a nazi rally. and as Chris point out, he's standing just a few feet away from a guy who is about to commit a hate crime murder. but you can also see Taylor Wilson (sonnenrad shield) & Alex McNabb (bald).
