US Election & Presidency

Trump has removed the security details for a number of previously protected people. They include Mike Pompeo (the Iranians have made credible threats to his life) and Dr Fauci who many nutjob conspiracy theorists have threatened to kill. Evil behaviour which may well lead to someones death.

As far as Elon's "gesture", seems like over here we have a bunch of mouthpieces for Musk DEFENDING his actions as if it's being overblown He's a troll who's enjoying pissing off the evil woke, and this is his form of "humor". At the same time, it's appealing to their base. Does this make up for the H-1B curfuffle
I'm not sure if that's just an American media thing or not, but it's really upsetting the amount of great PR these guys get from the podcast sphere. Guess we will tolerate anything as long as a rich guy does it and he has our favorite "bros" defending him. For someone on the left like me (big surprise I know, haha) I just don't get the appeal of the spineless jellyfish we have when it comes to people with money.
