US Secret Service says it is Aware of Musk Post about Biden, Harris

Tuesday, September 17, 2024

"The Secret Service is aware of the social media post made by Elon Musk and as a matter of practice, we do not comment on matters involving protective intelligence," a spokesperson told Reuters in an email. "We can say, however, that the Secret Service investigates all threats related to our protectees."

Musk is the real joke in the story.

The richest man in the world, who made perhaps the butt-ugliest 'heinously ugly' truck ever, not to mention that Hertz is selling 10's of thousands of Teslas, and using the money to buy gas vehicles... is going to make the Gov werk better?

S'riously?

He'll make it work better for him.

Fake assassination attempt on Trump by feral Trumper.

Trump: Democrats are trying to kill me!

Vance: Democrats are trying to kill Trump.

Public: ummmm ... . That shht was fake as fkkk.

Second reported assassination attempt. (Trump didn't want to go through the whole charade again)

Still no one cares.

Musk: why is no one trying to assassinate Biden/Harris?

Why any self respecting progressive with a conscience would drive a Tesla at this point is beyond me.

I guess the richest person in the world truly is untouchable. No rules apply to Musk. He probably really can shoot someone dead on Fifth Avenue and not face any legal consequences. He has outgrown the universal constraints of our money fueled society.

Unless he is also giving money to all the right people on all sides, it seems sooner or later he will be targeted for termination.

#7 | Posted by moder8 at 2024-09-17 06:45 PM

So we have a candidate who has been targeted twice and somehow Musk is the villain?

Wow

#8 | Posted by BellRinger at 2024-09-17 09:30 PM

No... Dems are the villain, ask Trump and JD.

What, you didn't get your 4chan notification?

LOL send him to GITMO

@#8 ... somehow Musk is the villain? ...

Mr Musk may not be the villain.

But, it is now up to the Secret Service to determine if he is a villain.

Deport Elon Musk.

#12 | Posted by Alexandrite at 2024-09-17 10:01 PM

@#12 ... Deport Elon Musk. ...

While i am not there. Yet.

I do have to say, he seems to be an immigrant who is actively trying to destroy Democracy in the Country.

Musk Pours Money Into New York Races Critical to House GOP Win
www.yahoo.com

... Elon Musk's super political action committee is funneling $2.1 million to Republican candidates in battleground districts across the country, possibly helping the world's richest person build a bench of allies in Congress. ...

So... similar to Mr Thiel funding Sen Vance's Senate campaign?

Billionaires wanting to take over the Country?

They'd like us to go back to the days of appointed Senators whose nicknames were Sen Copper, Sen Steel, Sen Railroad, etc etc

The government should seize Starlink and SpaceX under eminent domain. He should have all government contracts terminated and his security clearance rescinded. You cannot trust a Reichwing drug addict to keep national secrets safe, and he has already shown that he will stab a paying customer in the back in favor of Russia.

Musk is smart which is one reason he is rich. Biden is recognized as a clueless fool or tool that spends his time sunbathing instead of working. His own party and Nancy Pelosi just threw him out of power and replaced him with Kamala who never got a vote as a candidate. Everyone recognizes Kamala offers nothing positive just like Biden.

Every election since obama you've screamed that the democrat candidate is the "worst ever!"

And now you've gone from biden being the worst to kamala being the worst.

Seems like you just say that about anyone who opposes your cult leader.

Just like on January 6, 2021, right Robson?

Trump is asking for your vote in New York because the Democrats in NY STATE are obviously completely corrupt and inept. Every office in NY is corrupt from Gov to Mayor to entertainment to Sean Diddy.

Is that what you said after charlottesville? Or Jan 6th?

The undisputed leader of the right has spouted hateful rhetoric since day 1.

The left doesn't have an undisputed leader (because we're not a cult) but no dem with power spouts the destructive hatred that trump does.

Now he gets shot at BY A REPUBLICAN AND A FORMER TRUMP VOTER, and you blame democrats?

But not trump. Nope. Just because he filled his adminstration with donors and lobbyists and his son got 2 billion dollars from the saudi prince doesn't mean he's corrupt like all those democrats.

#23 | Posted by SpeakSoftly at 2024-09-18 08:05 PM

Democrats offer only more crime, corruption, foreign terrorist gangs, and destruction of our once safe and lovely America. Even unions have had enough of lying scheming Dem pols like AOC and
and the little banty rooster in $500 ties Mayor Adams. New Yorkers need to revitalize their brain before it disappears.

An orange guy in a nice tie makes sense to you because he played a rich guy on tv. But a black guy in a nice tie really makes you mad.

Hertz is selling 10's of thousands of Teslas, and using the money to buy gas vehicles... is going to make the Gov werk better?

S'riously?

Hertz is selling electric vehicles because your joke of a President decided we would all drive EVs. The problem is there's no range on them because lack of infrastructure to charge and the maintenance is going to sink the car rental when the time comes to do a battery replacement.

My Good Guy AI agrees.

I attempted to engage in a civil debate several times with this hateful fool but it's getting to the point where all I really want to say to him now is GFY.
