A judge ruled that a $56 billion compensation package that Tesla had awarded to Elon Musk was illegal and that Musk would have to return the money. He is now losing even more money than Donald Trump. #Delaware cnbc.com/2024/01/30/tesla-shar

Remember, Allen Weisselberg is the one who actually approved the hush money payments to Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal -- or, more accurately, the payments to Michael Cohen to reimburse him for the hush money.

So Weisselberg would be yet another compelling witness at trial.

If Weisselberg is taking a deal, he has to reciprocate.

What is he giving the prosecutors in return?

1) Testimony in the upcoming hush money trial?

2) Testimony for a newly revived criminal fraud case against Trump?

3) Both?

The case against Trump for fraudulent financial statements should ALWAYS have been a criminal case.

Manhattan DA had that case open -- then Alvin Bragg closed it.

NY AG Letitia James went ahead with civil case.

Allen Weisselberg's perjury may reopen criminal case.

Ted Cruz is a cancer on America. Texas: you deserve better. Vote him OUT on March 5, 2024!

Look who's touting #Bidenomics.

Via Victor Shi:

Wow. A Fox anchor, Larry Kudlow, just said on Fox, “I was wrong about the slowdown and the recession. Everyone was wrong.” This is the truth. There is no recession. There is no slowdown. Our economy is strong & booming because of President Biden. Period. Be loud & proud. #ClusterFox

Hey, folks, looking to #getFediHired

I've got some good prospects already, but I'd love to speak with anyone in the #SustainableEnergy #GreenEnergy and #logistics sectors. I'm #Chicago and/or will work remote, I have a proven track record leading several organizational transitions to #kubernetes and #cloudNative architecture. If you want help there, OR if you can help me better understand either of those verticals, I'd greatly appreciate a DM.

Just checking to see how the 2nd Amendment is making my community safer.

On the morning of October 7th, Hamas militants broke into the home of Ella, 8, and Dafna Elyakim, 15, and live-streamed the attack as they shot and killed their father, murdered his partner, Dikla, and forced her son, Tomer, to trick other residents of Kibbutz Nir Oz into false safety before murdering him as well.

Dafna and Ella were taken to Gaza in their murdered father’s car and placed in the home of a Gazan family.

There, they were psychologically tortured as Hamas members told repeatedly that they would only go home in coffins and that no one in Israel cared about them.

Over the course of their 50 days in captivity, the sisters were held in two houses, a school, and finally a subterranean tunnel.

As they were finally being released on November 26, a Hamas operative whispered to them: “We know where you live and we’ll come and kill you if you reveal where you were held captive.”

The bravery of these two young girls is astounding.

They are heroes. But they shouldn’t have to be.

Keith Siegel was taken captive with his wife, Aviva Siegel, a kindergarten teacher, from their home on Kibbutz Kfar Aza on October 7th.

The Siegels, aged 64 and 62, woke up to the sound of sirens on the morning of 7 October. Grabbing a phone, they rushed to their safe room in their pajamas, expecting to be there for 10 minutes or so.

The Siegels kept in touch with the family over WhatsApp, explaining they had been advised in a message on the kibbutz’s WhatsApp group not to speak aloud. At about 10am, the messages stopped.

The couple was driven into Gaza in their own car, along with a neighbor and her two children.

Aviva Siegel was released on November 26. Her husband, Keith, remains a captive.

Keith Siegel, originally from North Carolina, works for a pharmaceutical company and is known as a quiet, kind man, dedicated to his wife, children, and grandchildren.

Bring Keith home now!!

Hamas’ network of tunnels under Gaza is approximately 160% larger than the London Underground, which is 250 miles long.

For reference, the Gaza Strip, which is about 25 square miles, is only 23% the size of London.

These tunnels have shafts poking out of homes, schools, UNRWA facilities, mosques, hospitals, kindergartens, and graveyards.

This is the monster that Israel is fighting: everywhere, immense, and terrifying.

And all of Gaza is sitting atop its nest.

Erick Peretz, 58, and his 16-year-old daughter, Ruth, were murdered by Hamas while attending the Supernova music festival on October 7.

Erick had taken Ruth, who was born with cerebral palsy and muscular dystrophy, and used a wheelchair, to the festival because of her love of music.

“For years he would go to these festivals and bring Ruth because it made her really happy and she loved it,” said Ya’arit Peretz, Erick’s daughter, and Ruth’s sister. “There were times he would take her and she didn’t want to come home. It was their tradition, to go to festivals.”

The pair were both missing for many days as their family searched frantically for information before they were informed that their bodies had been found more than 10 days after the attack.

Erick devoted his life to Ruth. He was an incredible father, a man with a free spirit, who loved everyone and was always smiling.

May the memories of Erick and Ruth forever be a blessing.

This is just priceless. Trump argues in court, he cannot be removed from the ballot, because the office of the president is not explicitly mentioned in the constitution as one which must not participate in insurrection…

… only to be met by an army of 25 skilled historians who have the insight and documentation which proves, that indeed, what was meant in the constitution is exactly the opposite.

Stupidity never wins.

The wonderful Michael Popok has the story:

@AlliFlowers @mentallyalex @robbienorlyn I’m so busy trying to mobilize people in other ways I hadn’t thought about it. Maybe I’ll slip any hardcore Trumpers I encounter a Mike Pompeo 2024 sign. 🤭

@TonyStark how do we manifest this? I would very much enjoy watching them eat themselves and leave the rest of us to grow and reach for the stars.

Seeking references #academictwitter --- has anyone done a taxonomy of the ways in which we use anthropomorphic language (to describe computer systems or otherwise)?

Synagogue ‘swatting’ prompts legislation to increase penalties in Arizona tucsonsentinel.com/local/repor
Following hoax calls last year that triggered police responses to Arizona synagogues, a Republican proposal would increase the penalties for “swatting” in the Grand Canyon State.

#House ethics committee reached out to Rep. Matt #Gaetz’s ex-girlfriend amid ongoing investigation

“The outreach, which has not previously been reported, is a sign that the GOP-led committee’s investigation into the Florida Republican has recently expanded to include questioning around allegations of sex crimes, drug use and illicit benefits.”

These #Texas #traitors don't seem to be aware that the #Constitution explicitly prohibits member states from leaving the union. There is no legal mechanism for Texas to declare its independence from the #UnitedStates. So, what we're talking about is armed rebellion, and criminal charges for those who participate. These people are all about law & order until abiding by the law is inconvenient to their desires. Then, they're freedom fighters. 🙄
