“…all the best people, the elites and elitists among us, the correct thinkers, the self-appointed guardians of all things good, were buying electric vehicles, particularly Teslas? What a terrific way for them to demonstrate their green street cred. But that’s passé. The latest in look-at-me virtue signaling is selling that Tesla to make an important political statement.
Because Tesla CEO Elon Musk is aiding President Donald Trump in rooting out federal waste and corruption, he’s become a villain to the left. To be caught in one of his cars is simply an embarrassment to status seekers and the prigs obsessed with placing themselves on Barack Obama’s “right side of history.” So like entertainer Sheryl Crow, they have to unload their Teslas, and, naturally, do it as loudly as possible.
Last week, Crow “dramatically bid adieu to her black Tesla,” the New York Post reported, to protest the man she tagged on her Instagram account as “#PresidentMusk.”
Crow took to social media on Friday to reveal she had sold the electric car and was donating the money to NPR, “which Musk has repeatedly called to defund as his Department of Government Efficiency looks to slash federal funding.”
“My parents always said … you are who you hang out with,” wrote Crow. “There comes a time when you have to decide who you are willing to align with. So long Tesla.”
The money she received in return will be “donated to @npr,” she said, “which is under threat by President Musk, in hopes that the truth will continue to find its way to those willing to know the truth.” Which truth is that, we wonder? The truth that Washington is a pit of vipers freeloading off the American people while simultaneously lording over them – and that Crow supports this corrupt arrangement?
There’s also another truth Crow ignores. She and the entire clan of wealthy entertainers and rich elitists are free to fund National Public Radio with the vast U.S. dollars that they earn in our capitalist economy. After all, NPR is a playground and protective bubble for the elites and is in part funded by the Americans they and the NPR editors, producers, hosts and guests constantly mock…”
FORMER VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS:
“…When we think about these moments where we see things that are being taken, but also let’s see it as, you know, nature pours a vacuum, so where there’s a vacancy, then let’s fill it, right? And let’s know that the reality is that the progress of our nation has always been about the expansion of rights, not the restriction of rights. We’re seeing a U-turn right now.
For those rights to be maintained, which means we have to be vigilant, and it’s just the nature of it. I mean, look at this beautiful play, and everything that we know he ended, and he was suppressed, he had to suppress so much, but he knew, and he, you know, he took those risks, but we have to be clear-eyed, and it doesn’t mean we don’t see the beauty in everything, right? These things all co-exist, but I believe we fight for something, not against it, right?
And that’s our optimism, right?…”
“…New leadership and new rules are too much for sanctimonious DOJ employees, who resign rather than follow orders to depoliticize the department…”
And why have NY Dems turned against Mayor Adams. He complained about crackpot Dem policies and he has cooperated with Trump.
“…In a scathing nine-page letter, the acting deputy attorney general detailed a long list of insubordination and politicking by Danielle Sassoon, the temporary U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, related to her refusal to drop the federal case against New York City Mayor Eric Adams as instructed. Last September, the then-U.S. Attorney for SDNY handed down a five-count indictment against the Democratic mayor, a move some considered political retribution for Adams’ intraparty squabbles with the Biden administration…”
“…I ask because all the chatter we hear about “draining the swamp” is completely pointless. The swamp that is the Washington establishment cannot be effectively drained. There is no valve huge enough to handle the requisite discharge. The institutional sewers would be overwhelmed by the effluvium.
No, the fetid, corrupt, woke and self-serving bureaucracy that is the seat…”
