[ad_1] Some men campaign. Elon Musk campaigned on something.As Donald Trump mounted his improbable comeback in 2024, one of his loudest backers wasn’t a politician or a general or a strategist. It was a man who launches rockets, argues with strangers online, and fathers children with the scattershot enthusiasm of a fertility startup. But as The New York Times now lays out in lurid detail, Musk wasn’t just fuelled by ideology. He was fuelled by psychedelics, stimulants, ketamine—and a trail of baby mamas who found themselves at odds with a billionaire living his own late-stage psychedelic Kennedy cosplay.Musk, who donated a staggering $275 million to Trump’s campaign and was given real power inside the administration, wasn't just backstage at MAGA rallies. He was the show. A one-man demonstration of what happens when power, money, and pharmaceuticals collide in full view […]

The airline had originally leased the wide-body aircraft in November 2023 to mitigate capacity constraints caused by […]

[ad_1] US president Donald Trump on Friday again raised tensions amid the ongoing tariff war with China, attacking Beijing for "totally violating its agreement with the US", and adding that he was no longer going to be "Mr. Nice Guy".In a post on Turth Social, Trump said: "Two weeks ago China was in grave economic danger! The very high Tariffs I set made it virtually impossible for China to trade into the United States marketplace which is, by far, number one in the World. We went, in effect, cold turkey with China, and it was devastating for them. Many factories closed and there was, to put it mildly, "civil unrest". I saw what was happening and didn’t like it, for them, not for us. I made a fast deal with China in order to save them from what I thought […]
