“But Donald Blumph is a dictator” ~ Demcucks

Fox News

Former Labor Secretary Robert Reich, who served during Bill Clinton's presidency, wrote in a column published Friday that Elon Musk was "out of control," and argued he needed to be reined in.

"He may be the richest man in the world. He may own one of the world’s most influential social media platforms. But that doesn’t mean we’re powerless to stop him," Reich wrote, including a list of six things people could do to rein in Musk.

After Musk purchased Twitter in 2022, now known as X, Reich deemed the purchase "dangerous nonsense." He argued Musk's purchase was "just about power," rather than free speech.

Reich called on people to boycott Tesla and X and added, "Regulators around the world should threaten Musk with arrest if he doesn’t stop disseminating lies and hate on X."

Every time I see or read something about that little elitist Lefty gnome, I remember how Rush would always refer to him as “Robert Reishhhhhhhhhh”.

Too bad Rush is gone but this little authoritarian continues on spouting his nonsense.

He has zero high ground

His people killed, at minimum, 20 million Christians in Russia, and they were explicitly targeted because they were Christians

You gotta love when they take the mask off and you get to see how grotesque they really are.

Anything they don’t like is hate speech and needs to be illegal.

Who gets to decide/define lies and hate? Lies and hate to some is just normal and accepted to others.

Liberals were champions of free speech. Progressives hate it.

The Democrat party has been conquered by progressives.

For younger folks...when Reich wrote pieces about Clinton's policies the NYT put his tag line as 'Professor of Economics'. This went on for about a year until a teacher from his college wrote a piece: 'He was never a prof of economics. He was law school student.'
Reich stopped making the claim after being caught.
