In March 2024, Elon Musk threatened Don Lemon on camera: “Choose your question carefully. There’s five minutes left.” Lemon asked it anyway. A few hours later, Musk killed his show.
A year earlier, CNN had fired Lemon. Four months earlier, Musk had told advertisers leaving X to “go f*** themselves.” Earlier that same hour, he’d admitted taking ketamine every other week or so.
In the video below, Musk is relaxed. He jokes that he only had “one puff” on Joe Rogan’s show and doesn’t even know how to smoke pot. Whatever he is taking, he says, “I should keep taking it.”
Then Lemon brings up the advertisers.
“Is this the question you want to ask?”
Lemon’s questions are “not cogent,” Musk says. “You are upsetting me.”
Hours later, Musk cancelled the deal. Lemon posted the full interview on YouTube anyway and sued Musk in August 2024. By January 2025, Musk was working in the White House.
So who lost this interview: the man who lost his show, or the man who lost his cool?

This is crazy
In San Francisco there are people living on their boats floating in the bay. They aren’t in the marina taking up a spot
Local Officials say they must leave because they aren’t paying rent…. To float in the water….
“For decades, people living out here on the water have clashed with the authorities. They're part of the history of this place and a kind of countercultural way of living, but Sausalito's increasingly mega-wealthy, and there's really kind of no place for leading that life here anymore. The remaining anchorouts have been in a really tense battle with officials who really ramped up efforts to clear the bay. They got rid of boats and crushed them”
The people living on the boats say there is no way they could afford an apartment in the area
“I think the apartment I'm moving into is probably about $3,800. There's no way”
From what I can find if they leave the bay are then the Richardson Bay Regional Agency’s enforcement power is no longer valid. However the waters are much more dangerous outside the bay, which is why most don’t leave
Americans are so “free” you can’t even float in the water without paying rent…

Dr. Wladimir Lorentz, founder of "Have My Baby in Miami," boasted on his website that he helped over 2,000 foreign nationals come to America and give birth on our soil.
He just plead the 5th and refused to answer any of my questions.

Illinois…
Statewide proficiency jumped in 2024:
Reading: 41% to 53%
Math: 28% to 39%
They must be doing a better job teaching the kids, right?
Nope.
Dems just lowered standards because old standards were “too high”.
Everything Dems do is a scam.
Everything. Single. Thing.

Congratulations to Gavin Newsom on memorizing this line. It might be his greatest accomplishment.
He couldn't reduce homelessness or the cost of living in California, but he managed to get this line down.
For a guy who claims that he can't read, it's quite the achievement.

Full George Floyd Bodycam Footage.
He repeatedly says "I can't breathe" around the 10-minute mark.
From Grok: Official court-released bodycam transcripts and footage confirm that George Floyd first began saying “I can’t breathe” (and repeated it multiple times) while officers were attempting to place him in the back of the squad car—well before any prone restraint, neck compression, or other action that could be perceived as mechanically restricting his airway or breathing.

During her run for President in 2020, Elizabeth Warren told the story of a broke college student who donated three of her last six dollars to her campaign.
Warren was so happy about this. "That's what we got to do."
During that same campaign Warren was exposed for using a private jet for travel, even for trips that were short and drivable. Watch Warren hide behind the her staffer when she realized she was caught on camera.
Warren's campaign also used thousands of dollars of funds to buy copies of her book that she received a massive advance to write. That's a nifty grift.
