I keep going back to this interview as we watch France burn…
The Far Left interviewer frame Elon and us as “Far Right” for being against exactly what is happening today.
Elon’s every word was proven correct.
Her view was proven wrong.
The Media is the Enemy of the People.
Orchestral improvisation. Rare and wonderfully amazing
Being an exceptionally talented musician is one thing. But to stand before such high-caliber fellow musicians, a large audience, and cameras—all while remaining composed, communicating skillfully and effectively, showing genuine enjoyment, and staying focused on the creative process—that is what truly amazes me.

I just found the most brilliant bit by @JohnCleese
He explains Leftism better in 90 seconds, than you could learn from any academic in 20 years.

🇺🇸 Nearly half the people who stormed the Capitol on January 6 were doctors, lawyers, CEOs and business owners, and only one in ten belonged to a militia
Robert Pape's team read every court file on all 1,575 defendants, and the face that came out is the opposite of the one Americans expect.
A Boston gynecologist on bodycam beating officers in the rotunda. Defendants who stayed at the Willard.
Since then the same pattern: Mangione from generational wealth and an Ivy League degree, the correspondents' dinner shooter from Torrance with a Caltech education and a manifesto casting himself as Robin Hood.
Support for political violence now sits above 30 percent on both sides, and his September survey is the highest reading in five years of tracking.

Mississippi 4th graders now rank #1 in the country in reading and math score improvements.
