By the end of this month, Elon Musk is about to shock the world again.
And will unleash enough wealth to make every household in America $2.38 million.
A new book alleges that Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates secretly deposited at least $2 billion into accounts connected to Jared Kushner while he was serving as senior adviser to the president. The book, “Princes and Thieves,” by journalist Matthew Cole, was the subject of a full segment on Democracy Now on Monday… election eve. Kushner is now the president’s special envoy to the Middle East. The governments that allegedly gave him $2 billion are the same ones the administration sells weapons to, signs energy deals with, and shields from international scrutiny. The money went into the accounts. The policies went out the door. One person gave $366 million to midterm campaigns. Another paid $100,000 for access. A third received $150 million from a merger. Three hundred and thirty million flowed through the White House ballroom. A pardon cost $50 million. And now the allegation is $2 billion from two foreign governments to the president’s son-in-law while he was shaping the policy that serves them. Kushner’s lawyers called the allegations “completely insane” and “categorically false.” They have threatened legal action against the publisher. The revolving door has a price list. The newsletter has tracked every number on it. The latest entry is $2 billion. On election day. | |

BREAKING A Grand Jury Indicted the Agent Who Ran Over a Man with a Government Vehicle and Broke Both His Legs |
A Houston grand jury indicted the federal agent who ran over an immigrant construction worker with a government vehicle. Democracy Now reported the indictment in its Monday headlines. The man had both legs broken in the incident. This is the first time an agent has been indicted for enforcement violence during this administration. A DoorDash driver was wounded and waited 11 days for surgery. A father was wounded in front of his five-year-old son and still sits in solitary with the round in his neck. People have lost their lives in a private facility in California. And now, for the first time, a grand jury said: this was a crime. The machine sent 3,000 agents a day. It deputized 13,000 local officers. It detained 506 American citizens. And one grand jury in Houston said that running a man over with a vehicle is not enforcement. It is a crime. The machine acts without consequence until someone says: this one was a crime. A grand jury in Houston just said it. On election day. |
EXPOSED A Sitting Democrat Endorsed the Opposing Party’s Candidate in a Senate Race That Could Decide Control of the Chamber | |
Democratic Congressmember Haley Stevens of Michigan endorsed the Republican candidate in the state’s Senate race two days before the election. Democracy Now reported the endorsement in its Monday headlines. The Senate minority leader called it “a despicable betrayal.” Several members of her staff resigned. Stevens lost to progressive candidate Abdul El-Sayed in the Democratic primary in August. She endorsed the Republican the week of the general election. She appeared with him at a church in Detroit on Sunday. In the hours after the endorsement, El-Sayed raised $1.2 million. This is the race where a foreign lobbying group spent $9 million and timed the disclosure to land after the vote. The same race the president traveled to for a rally. And now a sitting member of the losing candidate’s own party endorsed the other side. The machine does not always cross party lines from the outside. Sometimes the betrayal comes from inside the house. On election day. | |

DEVELOPING A Judge Threw Out a Ten-Billion-Dollar Lawsuit That Was Aimed at Silencing a Newspaper’s Reporting on a Notorious Case |
A federal judge dismissed the president’s $10 billion lawsuit against the Wall Street Journal over its reporting on the Jeffrey Epstein case. Democracy Now reported the dismissal in its Monday headlines. Ten billion dollars. That is what the president wanted from a newspaper for publishing reporting he did not like. The judge threw it out. That makes six federal court losses for the administration in two months: the press ban, the pollster lawsuit, the taxpayer ads, the sanctions on groups supporting the international court, the California ballot challenge, and now the Epstein lawsuit. The pattern is the same every time. The machine tries to use the courts to silence the press, remove voters, block elections, and punish oversight. The courts say no. The machine tries the next thing. Six rulings. Six losses. The machine keeps filing. The courts keep saying no. On election day, the scoreboard reads: Courts 6, Machine 0. |
