I am not quite sure of what is going on here politically in the US.

The US Supreme Court upheld the Tik-Tok ban that was upheld by a US Federal court just before Felon47's inauguration. This after the Felon requested the SCOTUS to delay their decision till he "assumes" the office. Is that a shot across the bow of Trumpforce yacht?

Israel's security cabinet approved the ceasefire and this too just before Felon 47 is worn in. Netanyahu wanting to credit Biden administration with negotiating this ceasefire (which they did) and diss Felon47?

So what is next?

Nay to Hegseth, yet another sexual predator.
Nay to Kristi Noem who is banned in certain parts of her own state?

And we have people making money on Tik-Tok bitching and moaning while not realizing that Tik-Tok is banned in China and so are other social media sites. Here is a list of sites that are banned in China:

Google, YouTube, Facebook, Yahoo, Wikipedia, Reddit, Fandom, Netflix, Zoom, Bing, Instagram, Whatsapp, Spotify, Skype
List is too long and astounding.

What are they afraid of?

President-elect Donald Trump has made revisionism a cornerstone of his political career. Here’s why that’s so dangerous.

Elon just couldn't help himself. Like Doctor Strangelove in the movie of the same name, his arm just jumps out there. It's a reflex. Just this time when Elon got excited, it happened in public. .
