One thing to keep an eye on. We keep hearing in various reports about people 'on Musk's team' doing this or that. In most cases these seem to be his private sector employees. And a lot flows from that. But in most cases we don't know. That's, I think, because most reporters don't actually know.

THIS IS A BLATANT LIE AND A DISGRACE TO THE MEMORIES OF THE VICTIMS.
While emergency responders are still recovering peoples' loved ones from the freezing water, Trump is using these families' pain for POLITICS by blaming their deaths on DEI.
A total failure of leadership.
