Any time these guys whine about Soros you'll see people in the replies lying about Soros being a Nazi collaborator they're not mad that he's a billionaire or how he got his money.

Bring back the olden days when you could mail your kids using the USPS

quote:

Just a few weeks after Parcel Post began, an Ohio couple named Jesse and Mathilda Beagle “mailed” their 8-month-old son James to his grandmother, who lived just a few miles away in Batavia. According to Lynch, Baby James was just shy of the 11-pound weight limit for packages sent via Parcel Post, and his “delivery” cost his parents only 15 cents in postage (although they did insure him for $50). The quirky story soon made newspapers, and for the next several years, similar stories would occasionally surface as other parents followed suit.

Which makes the Magneto comparison even sillier, specially given how both his character is seen in better light nowadays and how the inspiration for the main conflict between X and Magneto had been disproven this month, what with the article showing that MLK didn't have beef with Malcolm X.

are CEO security clearances like the ones in congress, in the sense of "you're already here, nothing we can do now"?

Nah. It's really not that huge an issue.

Corporate leadership clearances come out of a pool of what's known as "stakeholder clearances." There are things the corporate leaders need to know about expenditure, risk acceptance, and strategy even if they don't have dangerous access to details about intelligence or technical information.

Need to know is still a dominant mode of determining who needs to know what. You will note that every few months someone has to remind everyone in here that SpaceX now has a proper defense industrial base governance apparatus set up within the company, such that Elon is largely removed from details and decisionmaking on classified contracts beyond "Will you accept XYZ terms for payment, insurance, deliverables, and collateral?" when NRO wants to procure service.

An eccentric CEO like Elon Musk with foreign influence burrowed into every financial pressure point can still be managed at arm's length. It's when that kind of weirdo person becomes a president, for uhhh nonspecific example, that direct statutory entitlements become a security nightmare.

Elon's rolling now most every night
Skatin' backwards at the speed of light
He's lame - in a thousand little ways
He's lame - yes indeed
You know he's drivin' cybertruck yes he's
Looking shite, he's the King of Memes

Twitter's timeline - there's a case in point
That right-wing hooey sure stunk up the joint
He's gone - he walks through the old routines
But he's gone - divorcee.

Says he's sittin' in the centre, but he's
Steppin' out with all the Nazis

He maybe got lucky for a few good years
But there's no way back from there to here
He's a one way rider
On his poo poo express
And his new best frens are at the throttle more or less

He can't hear you honey - that's alright
Pack some things and head up into the light
Don't stop - he'll DM your username
But don't stop - when you see him tweet
You better move now little darlin' or you'll be
Trading horse with the King of Memes
