‘What Did He Even Mean by This?’: Tim Walz Sparks Outrage After Internet Hears What He Called Elon Musk

Tim Walz continues to light up the internet — for all the wrong reasons.

The Minnesota governor and Democratic vice presidential candidate has been in a proxy war with billionaire Elon Musk over Musk’s support for former President Donald Trump — Walz effectively called Musk a “dips*** last week, as Fox News reported.

And at a campaign stop in Detroit on Friday, he sparked a storm of social media responses after he appeared to imply that Musk, a father of 12, is homosexual — and Walz was clearly insulting Musk at the time…

Walz was in the process of talking about the economy when he turned the subject to tax cuts for billionaires like Musk.

“If you’re a billionaire, Elon Musk for example, say, that gah … , that gay got …” then he snickered.
“Michigan knows that word,” he said.

“Look, that dude got a tax cut and the rest of us got shafted on the whole deal,” he said.

(The full video of the event is available here. Walz’s “gay guy” comments come about the 6:30 mark.)

Now, Walz almost certainly didn’t start out intending to call Musk “gay.” From the sound of the butchered sentence, he was trying to say “that guy got” and it came out as “that gay go…”

But his juvenile leering — along with the “Michigan knows that word” aside he tossed to the crowd — showed that once Walz committed the error, he also committed to going ahead with what he clearly meant as a slur. (To give Walz credit, he did switch the troublesome word to “dude.”)

Now, it’s safe to say that if Musk were gay, the world wouldn’t have needed Tim Walz to break the news. And it’s a damn good bet that he’s not.

Besides the dozen children he’s sired, the uber billionaire’s romantic life is the stuff of international tabloid fare (how many other guys have dated actress Amber Heard?), and it’s a better-than-even chance the news of any gay liaisons would have leaked long ago.

Buying Politicians is Easy

Last week, in “The Strange Story of Peter Thiel,” I examined Thiel’s history, from his upbringing in a globe-trotting family to his years at Stanford to the formation of the “Thielverse” to the creation of Palantir.

As you’ll recall from that exploration, by the time disgraced Admiral John Poindexter introduced Thiel (and his creepy Big Brother / Big Data surveillance company, Palantir Technologies) to the US intelligence community, Thiel was a full-fledged deep state actor, amassing power and influence in line with his billions of dollars of wealth.

But as incredible as that meteoric rise to riches and power was, it’s only the very beginning of a decades-long journey through citizenship shopping and shadow presidencies and war profiteering.

This is the continuation of The Strange Story of Peter Thiel.

Bill Gates’ donation to Kamala Harris: An act of patriotism or a hidden strategy?

The recent secret donation by Bill Gates to Kamala Harris’ campaign has generated controversy and suspicions about the true motivations behind this political move. Gates, known for his «philanthropic» works and his malign influence on global issues, has donated $50 million through Future Forward USA Action, a 501(c)(4) organization that allows the flow of «dark money» into political campaigns without revealing the identity of donors.

This financial support marks a shift in Gates’ stance, who had previously stayed away from politics, declaring himself “bipartisan.” However, the decision to specifically support Harris in her presidential campaign has raised questions about the motivations behind this political investment. Isn’t that curious? Just a reminder, one of the most anti-human individuals on earth is… Who do you think?

Kamala’s Secret Weapon: The British Operatives Determined to “Kill” Elon Musk’s Free Speech Platform X

Amid the chaos of pre-election America, major information has surfaced, revealing internal documents from the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH). This UK-based group, which was founded by British political strategist Morgan McSweeney under the name Brixton Endeavours Limited before being renamed to the Center for Countering Digital Hate in 2019, outlined a clear goal in their agenda: “Kill Musk’s Twitter.” The documents make it clear that the CCDH is targeting Elon Musk’s social media platform with full force. McSweeney, who helped guide Keir Starmer to victory in the UK, is now involved in US politics, advising Kamala Harris as she navigates the upcoming election, raising serious questions about the CCDH’s reach and motives.

Now, if you’re wondering why a think tank founded by a man who helped turn Keir Starmer into the British Prime Minister is so dead set on smashing up a social media platform thousands of miles across the pond, you’re not alone. But the CCDH isn’t just any ragtag team of keyboard warriors. These guys are plugged into Washington power circles like an iPhone into a dodgy charger, with ties so tight to the Biden-Harris campaign, that they might as well be writing the tweets. And with McSweeney now advising Kamala Harris, well, let’s just say the plot thickens.

Bill Gates to Stand Trial in Netherlands in COVID Vaccine Injury Lawsuit

A Netherlands court last week ruled that Bill Gates can stand trial in the Netherlands, in a case involving seven people injured by COVID-19 vaccines.

According to Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf, the seven “corona skeptics” sued Gates last year, along with former Dutch prime minister and newly appointed NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, and “several members” of the Dutch government’s COVID-19 “Outbreak Management Team.”

Other defendants include Albert Bourla, Ph.D., CEO of Pfizer, and the Dutch state.

“Because Bill Gates’ foundation was involved in combating the corona pandemic, he has also been summoned,” De Telegraaf reported.

According to Dutch independent news outlet Zebra Inspiratie, the plaintiffs allege that Gates, through his representatives, deliberately misled them about the safety of the COVID-19 shots, despite knowing “that these injections were not safe and effective.”

Dutch independent journalist Erica Krikke told The Defender that the seven plaintiffs — whose names are redacted in the lawsuit’s publicly available documents — “are ordinary Dutch people, and they have been jabbed and after the jabs they got sick.”

Krikke said that of the seven original plaintiffs, one has since died, leaving the other six plaintiffs to continue the lawsuit.

Former Republican Justice Department and other officials sent a letter Monday to Democratic Attorney General Merrick Garland requesting he open an investigation into billionaire Elon Musk’s cash prizes to registered voters in swing states.

Musk handed out the first two checks for $1 million at a Donald Trump rally in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, on Sunday.

Bill Gates Pours $50 Million to Back Kamala Harris, Just Days After Elon Musk Claims Billionaires Are ‘Terrified’ of Trump’s Epstein Client List Promise

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has quietly funneled a staggering $50 million into a nonprofit backing Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign.

According to the far-left New York Times, Gates’ donation to Future Forward USA Action, a “dark money” group that doesn’t disclose its donors, is his largest political contribution yet.

Despite his ‘bipartisanship and neutrality’ claims, it seems Gates, who has been busy talking about climate change and vaccines, is suddenly very interested in the outcome of the upcoming election—especially after Elon Musk’s recent bombshell statements about why billionaires are so keen to back Harris.

“I support candidates who demonstrate a clear commitment to improving health care, reducing poverty, and fighting climate change in the U.S. and around the world,” Gates told the NY Times.

“I have a long history of working with leaders across the political spectrum, but this election is different, with unprecedented significance for Americans and the most vulnerable people around the world.”

‘I’m definitely upgrading my security’: Leftist German Magazine Der Spiegel Calls Elon Musk ‘Enemy Number Two’ – Tech Billionaire Comments on the ‘Vitriolic Hatred’

With his electric cars and rockets, Elon Musk was once a very well-liked figure in liberal circles.

But his work for free-speech on social platform X and his ‘all-in’ support for Donald J. Trump’s Presidential campaign have put him in the crosshairs of the planetary leftist hatred.

Now the leftist German Magazine Der Spiegel has crystalized this hatred in a strong cover story: ‘Elon Musk, Enemy Number Two’. Elon Musk: Staatsfeind Nummer Zwei – DER SPIEGEL (behind a paywall).

This took the internet by Storm, especially the X social media platform.

On Sunday (20), during town hall discussion in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Musk commented on the ‘vitriolic hatred’ by the left, and said that he planned to upgrade his security after the Der Spiegel quite literal hit-piece.

On his event in support of Donald Trump’s candidacy, the talked about the heightened political atmosphere.

WaPo’s Favorite Environmental Group Uses ‘Political’ Research To Link Climate Change to Natural Disasters. It’s Also Bankrolled by WaPo Owner Jeff Bezos.

World Weather Attribution was founded in 2014 to produce research linking extreme weather events to climate change. That research is then funneled to mainstream media outlets, giving them what the group calls the “larger global warming context” as they cover natural disasters.

The group found a friend in Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, who in 2022 announced a $10 million grant to WWA and two other organizations to “scale effective communication on the links between climate change and extreme weather.” The Bezos Earth Fund said the money would provide the WWA an outlet to “reach the most important audience segments via trusted messengers.”

One such messenger is Bezos’s newspaper, the Washington Post, which has cited WWA research in more than 70 stories over the past three years, a Washington Free Beacon review found. It does so uncritically, publishing the group’s non-peer-reviewed findings to suggest that climate change is to blame for recent natural disasters, including Hurricane Milton. Nonpartisan experts in the field, however, are not so sure of WWA’s methods, portraying the group’s flashy studies as rushed, partisan, and “incomplete.”

Bezos’s funding for the group, paired with the Washington Post‘s favorable coverage of its research, raises questions about the newspaper’s declared independence from its billionaire owner. The Post’s stories citing WWA do not acknowledge that Bezos—who purchased the paper in 2013, one year before the group’s founding—also bankrolls WWA.

“The motivation is entirely political,” Ryan Maue, the former chief scientist at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, said of the climate group. “I’m not sure what the scientific community’s opinion on it is, but my guess is that it has gotten along this far because of its political weight and the media attention that it is given, meaning you don’t want to be on the wrong side of this.”

Maue particularly criticized WWA’s methodology, which consists of determining the probability of a recent extreme weather event, comparing it with the probability of a similar event that occurred decades ago, and attributing the difference to climate change. That leads to flashy findings—but not necessarily accurate ones, according to Maue, who argued that the WWA values speed over accuracy and, as such, produces “incomplete” research.

“What they are able to put out is the headline that climate change made Hurricane Helene worse and then count on the scientific illiteracy of the corporate media in order to produce headlines that become, you know, more and more outlandish, making claims that obviously are not supported by the science,” he told the Free Beacon.

Elon Musk Blasts Dishonest MI SOS For Having More Registered Voters on Voter Rolls Than Eligible Voters: “Shame on you for blatantly lying to the public!”

There is no question that America’s elections are broken. However, one state arguably wins the prize for the most crooked elections in the nation, and that state is Michigan.

To date, Michigan’s Soros-funded SOS Jocelyn Benson has lost 10 election-related lawsuits, in which the plaintiffs sued her for intentionally weakening the state’s election security.

One of the many lawsuits against MI SOS Benson was filed by the RNC in March. The lawsuit accuses the Democrat SOS of having more active voters on the voter rolls than eligible voters in 53 counties in Michigan.
