Elon is doing applied political science. He had a hypothesis, and then he bet on it. And in being correct, we are learning empirically: The Professional Managerial Class has perfected a system of moral blackmail through which they convert third world suffering into personal wealth and status. They position themselves as noble humanitarian experts with PhDs who care deeply about things like global poverty, to justify their own sinecures extracted from the national purse. These credentialed do-gooders wield the threat of African deaths as a shield against any questioning of their privileges. We've long understood bourgeois professional hypocrisy in theory, but never before have we had such a complete empirical revelation of the exact dollar amounts, networks, and individual names involved across the top of the PMC hierarchy. Professional political scientists are generally feigning horror at Elon right now, but that's because they are members of the PMC, even if they are only minor and distant dependents on DC.

“Mr. Musk, what are the checks and balances in place to assure you and DOGE will be transparent?” He’s literally in the Oval Office taking questions from reporters when he doesn’t have to be. That’s a good start, isn’t it? Trump himself has answered more press questions in 4 weeks than Biden answered in 4 years.

President Trump is set to reveal the criminals who have been stealing billions from American taxpayers at a press conference tomorrow. He says Elon Musk and his Doge team have uncovered massive fraud, and he's ready to name names. “I'm going to read to you some of the names that hundreds of millions and even billions of dollars have been given to.”

This is absolutely amazing. I can’t stop listening. 🇺🇸
