One of the great questions starting Jan 21 is how will Elon and Donald communicate?

Trump is all phone. Nothing in writing.

Elon isn't going to take 10+ calls a day.

I wouldn't be surprised if more than half their communications are via posts on Truth Social and X

I have never heard of a “founder and product architect” being on <1% of the patents of the companies he says he founded.

NEVER. NEVER. NEVER.

“There’s still this idea that news is only ‘real’ once it’s confirmed by big corporate outlets. After all, could one woman with absolutely zero institutional backing in leggings and a sweatshirt in her NYC apartment really be the one to break such an important story? Now we know the answer is yes.”

The NYT reports that AGs from 18 states have sued Trump today to block his executive order that refuses to recognize the US-born children of unauthorized immigrants as US citizens. Good!

I couldn’t agree more. This is my pick for the tweet of the month.
It’s not about Trump supporters. It’s about giving the 75m people who DIDNT VOTE something to vote for

Legitimate discussions on this platform offer that path
It's only powerful if the Trump Supporters are reading what we see and communicating with questions.

The UK public overwhelmingly say US oligarch Elon Musk is a threat to democracy and trying to sabotage their country. The majority see him as a joke and opportunist.

"Musk is a deeply unpopular figure in the UK, with a net favourability rating of -35, lower than Nigel Farage or Tommy Robinson."
