Folks think Musk and Trump are engaged in politics, but this is a military operation being executed out of Moscow. If you are playing politics right now, you literally have brought a butter knife to a gun fight.
@davetroy What do you make of Trump’s insistence on raising the debt limit via this CR? What is his ulterior motive?
@jemcewen @davetroy can't hide stealing all the US income when you count it? Seems pretty straightforward
@jemcewen @davetroy Their ulterior motive is to destroy the standing of the USA (destroy Dollar dominance by default and/or promoting Bitcoin as the reserve currency), forcing population instability so that US states splinter into smaller provinces and selling the federal assets, such as tech and military, to the private sector on the cheap.

it’s a JOINT Russia/Saudi/OPEC military operation:

in 2016 King Abdullah threatened to blow up the USA economy if Obama published the missing 9/11 Report pages that link the kingdom to the attacks. it worked.

no sooner Abdullah dies, MBS is parading himself in a suit, calling himself a techbro sitting on a trillion ready to buy up Silicon Valley.

w/o the Saudis & Qataris, there is no Twitter, no Musk, no X.com, no AI. OPEC owns the techbros.

@jamesburrell2 @davetroy I know, but raising the debt limit prevents default for whatever time period is specified. Trump has even called for permanent suspension of the debt limit, which most Democrats wanted before yesterday.
