Fresh from pouring his money and energies into helping Donald Trump win reelection, Elon Musk has trained his sights on Europe. That is setting off alarm bells among politicians across the continent. The Tesla and SpaceX CEO has endorsed the far-right Alternative for Germany, demanded the release of jailed U.K. anti-Islam extremist Tommy Robinson and called British Prime Minister Keir Starmer an evil tyrant. Many European politicians have been left concerned by the attention. Greek Health Minister Adonis Georgiadis says Musk’s behavior is “troubling," while Starmer has condemned online "lies and misinformation." Loughborough University politics professor Andrew Chadwick says Musk is using X “a bit like an old-style newspaper mogul,” to promulgate his political views.

Elon Musk, the tech billionaire and unelected adviser to President Donald Trump, is asserting control over much of the federal bureaucracy and sensitive government computer systems despite lacking clear authority. The highest-ranking career official at the Treasury Department was pushed out after refusing to hand Musk’s team the keys to the government’s entire payment system and the $6 trillion in payments the system processes annually, including Social Security checks, tax refunds and Medicare benefits. Musk and his team have also seized control at the Office of Personnel Management and the General Services Administration, key institutions that function as the central nervous system of the U.S. government. “In any other situation, this would be called state capture, and people around the world would be condemning it,” says Democratic strategist Waleed Shahid, who writes in a new blog post that Elon Musk is staging a coup. We also speak with Lindsay Owens, executive director of the Groundwork Collaborative, who warns that Musk could be laying the groundwork for major tax cuts Republicans have promised that will disproportionately benefit corporations and wealthy people like him. “Elon Musk is going to pay for his tax cut with your Social Security,” says Owens.

The emergence of X owner Elon Musk as the most influential figure around President Donald Trump has created an extraordinary dynamic — a White House adviser who's using one of the world’s most powerful information platforms to sell the government’s talking points while threatening its detractors. Musk's use of the social media platform he owns has become both a cudgel and a megaphone for the Republican administration. Democracy experts say that matters because as more Americans flock to social media to get their news, the arbiters of who controls the flow of information on those sites have enormous power to shape the electorate’s perspective.
If you don’t have time to read her excellent book, look for interviews and talks on YouTube. A lot of my understanding of dark money began by listening to her experiences and explanation of this complicated network. I think I remember a “Democracy Now” from 2017 which was particularly good. Also a book talk at Politics and Prose.
“Democracy in Chains”, also 2017 and well represented on YouTube. Nancy MacLean lectures about the book and how she accidentally discovered “the radical right’s stealth plan for America”—to gain enough control to create a constitutional crisis. I’d also add Anne Nelson’s “Shadow Network” —she’s an expert on the CNP (Ginni Thomas, Cleta Mitchell, Steve Bannon, Charlie Kirk…) More recently, Gareth Gore’s “Opus Dei”—find Greg Olear’s interview with him, Opus Dei of Judgement (10-4-24)🤯
@lindamarie Noice! Haha I read Opus Dei ! 👍️ Thanks for the Cleta Mitchell mention! 👍️

Long piece, but an excellent primer on CNP. You will recognize a lot of the names, even if you’ve never heard of the secretive Council for National Policy.
On January 6, 2021, a stunned nation watched as protesters stormed the Capitol to prevent the certification of the electoral votes from the November election. The effort failed…

Homework while doing yard work!🎧 A point came when I realized how strong these forces had become and that if you didn’t know what you were up against, you wouldn’t know how to fight it. Although I’ve tried to share what I’ve learned, my family avoids any discussion. And they live in a captured state! They write postcards, etc.🤷♀️ It’s gratifying to find others who at least understand what we’re up against. If you don’t see this enemy, how do you convince people that it’s vital to vote?
@persagen Killing the #CFPB has been #MarcAndreessen's #1 priority from the jump because CFPB has repeatedly sanctioned #a16z backed companies for all kinds of financial fraud and shenanigans.
"i was told there would be massive cuts to government spending but all i got was the defunding of an agency called the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau that protected consumers from a long list of #a16z backed frauds" #slugsOfA16z
We tried that in the 1930s
