Kamala Harris’ parent cruelty exposed
Elon Musk has reposted a Make America Healthy Again video detailing how Harris, as California AG, took grotesque pleasure at ruining the lives of parents by prosecuting those whose children missed school.
“I learned that with the swipe of my pen, I could charge someone with the lowest level offense, that person could be arrested, lose their job, lose standing in their community,” she says in one clip. “Weeks later I could dismiss the charges, but their lives would forever be changed.”
Her rationale was that middle-school truancy was costing California $1.4 billion a year. “I want money!” she cackles, before unleashing that banshee howl we all know and, ahem, love.

Georgian Dream wins 54.2% of vote with 95% ballots counted - Central Election Commission
It would still not be enough for the ruling party to earn a constitutional majority, which requires 100 seats in parliament - as things stand they will earn about 90 - and would allow them to pursue impeachment proceedings against pro-Europe President Salome Zurabishvili.
However, a new president will be chosen within 45 days of the new government convening by a board of 300 electors made up of deputies and local government representatives - and not by voters, for the first time.
The opposition parties United National Movement and Coalition for Change have announced that they will not recognize the results of the parliamentary elections.

Musk denies WaPo claims he worked illegally in the US
Elon Musk has refuted a report by the Washington Post - regurgitated by President Joe Biden - that he was working in the US while on a student visa that denied him the right to do so in the 1990s.
“The Biden puppet is lying,” he commented on X late on Saturday, before explaining that he had “a J-1 [exchange visit] visa that transitioned to an H1-B [specialist employment]” visa - which Musk claimed he qualified for by applying to a Stanford University graduate program, but the WaPo report claimed he never attended.
The period referred to when he worked at the Zip2 startup that was later sold for $300 million.
