If you haven’t seen Jasmine Crockett’s latest speech at the Treasury hearing, do yourself a favor and find the clip (I’m quite sure it has been displayed numerous times here at C&L.).
It was a masterclass in how to shred a billionaire fraud in real time. With surgical precision, Crockett laid out how Elon Musk—poster boy for Jim Crow wealth and erratic decision-making—was attempting an illegal financial maneuver to dodge DOGE oversight. Musk’s love affair with fascism–see Trump, AFD in Germany, the right wing nutter convict in the UK, Meloni, Le Pen, etc.–has grown so intense I’m expecting *bow chick a bow wow* music to start playing as Elon enters a MAGA meeting to “deliver a pizza.”
Clearly didn’t expect to get called out so publicly & thoroughly, but Crockett didn’t flinch. Her interrogation was pointed, factual, and completely obliterated Musk’s fragile tech-god facade.
We discussed it in a Live Stream you’ll love. I did a rant about how much arse Jasmine kicked, how Tesla sales & stock have crashed harder than a SpaceX rocket & a troll entered the chat, and for 30 mins tried(!), while I/my audience ripped MAGA with all the sarcasm, wordplay & mockery we could muster. Folks, it’ll be one of the most cathartic moments you get. Hope he’s back for my next live stream at Cliff’s Edge 2pm et today! (be there, click on the “Live” vertical!). And while there, subscribe to Cliff’s Edge for more great content like this!
