I've been wracking my brain for months, trying to figure out how we can get rid of not just Trump, but also Vance and the entire monstrous Cabinet--quickly, legally, and nonviolently. #Liz48 is what I've come up with. Please share this. open.substack.com/pub/gregolear/…

LOL! WTF indeed. Hilarious and informative 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 "The Five 8 Songbook: Liner Notes Note: These are all fair use, because parody is fair use, and also they are less than a minute long. 1/ “America the Stupidful” (“America the Beautiful,” Samuel A. Ward) America / Beware of the... My wife’s vocal powers are on full display, the beauty of her voice contrasting with the four-letter coarseness of the last line. 2/ “What the Fuck?” (“Cool For Cats,” Squeeze) One of the more obscure parodies, but this banger from an underrated band is basically a patter song. Great animation from Chunk. The holy/Zampolli/Stoli rhyme makes it go. 3/ “Forever With Epstein” (“Forever in Bluejeans,” Neil Diamond) This was right around the time the Neil Diamond movie came out. LB sings it with me as a duet. It always makes me feel a little dirty to make parodies about Epstein, but it must be done. Jeffrey said, / “I’ll spill the beans on Trump.” / Now Jeffrey’s dead."

On Trump and Republicans launching gerrymandering wars because they can't win in a fair election, @gregolear warns "It's a ticking time bomb...These are not things that are intended to be... it's supposed to be just a tweak based on population. It's not intended to be used as a weapon." patreon.com/c/PoliticsWith…

@NBA_NewYork I feel like that was the game that started the whole thing, the resurrection of the Knicks.

Q: "RJ have you ever experienced a moment like that before?" RJ: "Yes. Once in New York…"

LIVE BY THE THREE, DIE BY THE THREE BABY

@TommyBeer Coaching malpractice.

With the possible exception of a star picking up a 3rd foul

Will never be a fan of first quarter challenges - even if it’s a def win

If a recent hack is true, then Tucker is a foreign propaganda storefront with no intellectual horsepower or audience.

@MySharonaBrown @chunkled Indeed!

@gregolear @chunkled Yes! My request fulfilled!!

Everything is stupid. Oldie but goodie. Animation by @chunkled...long before the Iranians were using Legos.

Elon Musk is the Ivar Kreuger of our time, and the OpenAI trial is PROVING it in real time. If you don't know who Kreuger was, you should: In the 1920s he was the most admired businessman in the world. The "Match King." He controlled 90% of global match production, lent money to sovereign governments, and his securities were the most widely held in America. But after his death in 1932, auditors spent 5 years untangling over 400 subsidiary companies and discovered the whole thing was held together with fictitious assets, forged bonds, and the unquestioning loyalty of people too dazzled to ask questions. Investors lost $750 million (~$17 billion in today's money). His deficits exceeded Sweden's national debt. Doesn't this sound familiar? The Musk playbook is the most DANGEROUS house of cards I've witnessed in my career. This week in federal court, Musk took the stand to argue that Sam Altman stole a charity. 3 days later he'd contradicted himself under oath so many times that the judge told his lawyers she suspected plenty of people don't want to put the future of humanity in Mr. Musk's hands. OpenAI's attorney asked if Tesla is pursuing AGI. Musk said no. The attorney then pulled up Musk's OWN post from March 4 where he wrote Tesla will be one of the companies to make AGI. His own words entered into evidence against him. BY HIM. Then the attorney asked if xAI used OpenAI's models to train Grok (which violates OpenAI's terms of service). Musk called it a general practice among AI companies. Pressed for a direct answer, he said "partly." Think about that: Musk is in court accusing OpenAI of betrayal while admitting under oath that xAI violated the very same company's terms of service to build Grok. Then came the credibility test: Musk was asked to name his companies that benefit society. He listed Tesla, SpaceX, Neuralink, and X without hesitation. Every one of them is an uncapped for-profit enterprise. Then why did xAI start as a benefit corporation and quietly flip to a for-profit C-corp? No clean answer. This is someone who repeatedly launches entities with noble-sounding charters and converts them into for-profit corporations once the money gets serious. Then his money manager Jared Birchall took the stand: OpenAI's lawyer asked about the donor-advised funds at Vanguard and Fidelity that Musk used to send his $38 million. Did Musk have any legal right to direct where the money went once it entered the DAF? Birchall couldn't answer. Said the legal question was beyond his expertise. The entire lawsuit hinges on that donation creating enforceable obligations. But the man who managed Musk's money just told a federal jury he can't confirm Musk had any enforceable claim over those funds. Now step back... This is a man who promised full autonomy by 2018, a million robotaxis by 2020, and unsupervised FSD by June 2025. EVERY deadline was missed. He claimed he invested $100 million in OpenAI. The real number was $38 million. His defense? His "reputation" made up the difference. Kreuger had 400 subsidiaries and used one entity to prop up another through structures nobody could follow. Musk has Tesla, SpaceX, xAI, Neuralink, the Boring Company, and X. He shifts AI talent from Tesla to xAI, has xAI building the brains for Tesla's Optimus robot, and uses X as a megaphone while the algorithm amplifies his narrative to 200 million followers. Kreuger's investors trusted the man, NOT the math. They loved the confidence. They stopped asking questions because the aura of genius made questioning feel foolish. The same psychology applies to Musk's empire today. Kreuger's reckoning took 5 years of forensic auditing after his death. But Musk is providing his in REAL TIME: contradicting his own posts under oath, admitting to the practices he's suing others for, watching his logic collapse under cross-examination. Different decade. Different industry. Same ending. The truth always catches up.
