- “Time to drop the really big bomb”…
- Will Epsteingate become the next Russiagate?…
- The PASSIVE stream of income that could absolutely MAKE your retirement…
Dear Reader,
“Time to drop the really big bomb,” announced bombardier Musk yesterday.
Cruising high above his target, Mr. Musk opened the bomb bay panels… thumbed the pickle… and declared “Bombs away!”
Impact soon followed:
“Trump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public.”
Is it true? Is the president listed within the Epstein files? And is that the reason they have not been revealed?
I do not know. I have ordered my agents to investigate the claim.
Yet it is clear the Trump/Musk “bromance” is ended.
The War of Words
The president has even threatened to scissor Mr. Musk’s contracts with the United States government:
- The easiest way to save money in our Budget, Billions and Billions of Dollars, is to terminate Elon’s Governmental Subsidies and Contracts.I was always surprised that Biden didn’t do it!
Former Trump advisor Steven K. Bannon suggested that the president immediately seize SpaceX assets… and deport him.
Yet Earth’s wealthiest man owns a speech platform of his own. Employing that platform, he returned fire on the president’s position:
Without me, Trump would have lost the election, Dems would control the House and the Republicans would be 51-49 in the Senate. Such ingratitude.
The former Trump drummer has even endorsed pleas for the president’s impeachment.
Welcome Back, Elon!
Thus I hazard Mr. Musk will undergo a rehabilitation of his reputation within certain circles.
Critics had previously denounced his cruel and destructive hatcheting of the federal labor force.
Yet his generalship of the Department of Government Efficiency has ended.
And that department worked little actual damage to the federal bureaucracy.
His sins are thus pardonable.
Now, he has turned his coat against Mr. Trump. He is in fact releasing aerial bombs upon the president’s head. .
If that does not return Mr. Musk to their excellent graces… what will?
Thus I hazard that outraged expressions such as this:
And this:
They will soon vanish from public gaze.
Mr. Musk may be a billionaire. Yet he is “their” billionaire again.
Democrats Pounce
The business titan’s defection certainly represents windfall political profits for the president’s foes.
Democratic congressman Daniel Goldman of New York plans to spend them:
- I called for the full release of the Epstein Files a month ago because of my suspicion that Attorney General Pam Bondi was concealing the files to protect Donald Trump. Now my suspicion has been confirmed.
Thus the “Epsteingate” of Trump II will develop into the “Russiagate” of Trump I.
It will be on the lips of every reporter who addresses the president.
“Mr. President, you denied having ever been to Epstein Island. Did you lie about that? What are you trying to hide?”
Mainstream newsrooms will seize the opportunity with a force defying all description.
“Now we’ve got him!”
It Doesn’t Matter if Trump’s Guilty of Anything
Is Mr. Musk’s accusation true? Is it false? And if true, did the president perpetrate actual illegalities?
It makes no nevermind to the mainstream media.
They will get their hooks in… and will not lift them out.
I concede the possibility that I may be proven mistaken.
- The Independent, for example, claims that Mr. Trump is indeed listed — yet he is not suspected of illegality.
Meantime, the president has undergone greater scrutiny than any other United States president.
It would truly gobsmack me if the slightest evidence implicating Mr. Trump would remain dark.
Sure as sugar… it would have leaked already to an eagerly receptive media.
Yet hard experience informs me the media will cling to ithe story with fantastic ferocity.
It Was Probably Inevitable
I am nearly tempted to claim that Mr. Musk’s rupture with the president was foreordained.
The South African native was never truly “MAGA.”
The matrimony was a matrimony of political convenience.
And the president’s more nationally-minded enthusiasts had long regarded him with suspicion.
At times they have even trained their cannons on him.
Yet it was the president’s “big, beautiful bill” that truly forced the schism.
Mr. Musk labeled the legislation a “disgusting abomination”… a “massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill.”
I have little doubt that he is correct in the particulars.
What congressional spending bill is not a disgusting abomination?
For Musk, the Political Is Personal Assumes New Meaning
Yet does the business titan’s venom derive from more personal sources?
Mr. Trump — evidently — believes so.
The president intimated, strongly, that Mr. Musk was furious the bill struck out an electric vehicle tax break that filled Tesla’s coffers:
- Elon was ‘wearing thin,’ I asked him to leave, I took away his EV Mandate that forced everyone to buy Electric Cars that nobody else wanted (that he knew for months I was going to do!), and he just went CRAZY!
Thus — if true — the political truly is personal as it pertains to Mr. Musk.
Of course, I do not know.
Yet I do know… or at least suspect strongly… that the row between him and the president is nowhere near ended.
Claims and counterclaims will go flinging from each camp in the days to come.
I am readying my popcorn.
