With Kayne - at times I think he's addicted to be controversial but now that the Pro-Trump stuff is basically the go-to 'edgy guy' move he has to go full anti-semite to get attention.

Yeah, I'm sure that's true. I guess I should have said stamped out Nazism.

I hear you. Maybe I've been naive, but it's been pretty shocking to me to see how mainstream antisemitism seemingly has become over the last months and years.

It doesn't help that groups like the ADL have been running around and attacking allies by equating Anti-Zionism with Anti-Semitism for the last 10 years.

Now of course, the "Leftists are the real nazis" crew are having their faces eaten by their right-wing cohorts and are acting confounded by this turn of events.

You can also thank #######s like Mort Klein (head of the Zionist Organization of America), who cozys up with literal white supremacists like Steve Bannon because he hates Palestinians/Arabs so much he has to write in Brietbart about it.

Over/Under on the "reveal" doing basically the same thing most Conservative media has done for Hunter Biden in the last three years; eg. inadvertently humanize him, or potentially make him look like a rad as hell party animal

Gotta make sure the "facts" don't trigger the Twitter "well actually" filters.

To be fair, he only said 5 PM ET. He didn't specify which day or year

I'm sure this will just as timely as when he first announced SpaceX was going to Mars, when Tesla Autopilot would be ready, when the Tesla Semi would ready, when the Cybertruck would be ready, and when Twitter Blue would be ready.

Hang in there, Yoho!

The guy called the Twitter banning of Trump - a President who supported/promoted/led an insurrection against his own government to overturn an election (in any other country it would be called a coup attempt) - a "grave mistake" is freaking out about Hunter Biden. Sounds about right for Republicans.

The time is curious too.. this is basically the time that companies release news that they want to avoid getting attention or impact their stock immediately. We will see though. It was a weird move to ban it the way they did.
