JD Vance is a smug and arrogant man picked for the vice presidency by Ambassador Kimberly Guilfoyle’s corrupt former paramour, who was last seen beclowning himself with a small group of homeless Greenlanders.
Ro Khanna is the Democratic congressman representing California’s 17th district, which includes Silicon Valley.
He is an idealist in a cynical era that is now yielding to something darker. He was just confronted by two forces joining in a storm that is gathering and strengthening.
Khanna triggered rage in Elon Musk and JD Vance by asking a question.
Vance’s definitive response:
Khanna should not ask it again.
Khanna is a good guy and a normal person.
He asked if 25-year-old Marko Elez, who resigned from Elon’s assault on the US government — an extension of Trump’s coup, which commenced at 12:53 pm on January 6, 2021 — would care to apologize for the repugnant statements he made. They were first reported by Wired magazine, which recognized they were important to inform the American public about.
Elez was rampaging through the most sensitive computer systems in the US government without any power, accountability, lawful authority, or clearances to do so.
Here are some of the statements by Elon’s young bigot:
Just for the record, I was racist before it was cool.
You could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity.
Normalize Indian hate.
There was no apology.
Instead, the young fascist was returned to duty through the direct intervention of the vice president of the United States, who seems untroubled by the hatred young Marko feels for Vance’s own wife and children.
This intervention has flummoxed some people who can’t comprehend the reality that Vance would defend the person who hates his family, and empower him to spread his hatred across America.
The price of power is the cost it imposes on the soul.
In the high places where the air gets thin and power is tangible, close, in the air, ubiquitous and ephemeral, there is always a battle that is fought.
It is between cynicism and idealism. There are no undecided rounds, and the fight never ends.
JD Vance has no shame.
He has attained real power, and he wants more.
The price is high, but he will pay anything, do anything, and say anything.
He must accept and apologize for the bigotry of the people who hate the woman who is the mother of his children.
His power comes on the back of Usha’s dignity and his children’s humiliation.
It comes on the back of his hideous and insidious calumny about Haitians eating domestic pets in a small Ohio town that he assaulted with lies, despite being the US senator from Ohio.
So long as he stands firmly on the side of the bigots, who degrade the dignity of his own children’s lives, and practice a venomous ideology that asserts his children as “less than” them, then his loyalty to MAGA can never be questioned. After you sell out your wife and kids, nothing is left to give.
All that Vance has left is the emptiness of knowing who he truly is when he stands alone in the mirror, before the Navy steward greets him with the title that he wanted so badly and has achieved.
His calm demeanor belies a deep shame that builds into a toxic contempt when it is confronted and approached at the right angle.
Ro Khanna hit JD Vance in his sweet spot.
Vance, like a deer being approached from upwind, is oblivious to the threat.
He looks up and sees Ro Khanna in his face. His rage, fueled by his shame, becomes overwhelming. He lashes out.
JD Vance’s words are preposterous.
He demands grace for hatred, and spews contempt towards an attempt to offer grace.
Defending his wife and children means risking their status as tolerated liabilities, and turning them into disqualifying ones for his MAGA presidential future.
The Mar-a-Lago court isn’t lily white in the strictest sense, but when it comes to white entitlement that is unearned and undeserved, it is the center of the universe.
There, “Big Balls” — now a "senior adviser" at the State Department's Bureau of Diplomatic Technology — and Marko Elez are transformative heroes and courageous victims. Each is a twisted version of MAGA’s Nathan Hale, except their cause is Musk and rage.
American luck comes in many forms, with none more pungent than good fortune or vast wealth passed down to the undeserving, who receive it without gratitude, grace, achievement or responsibility.
Racist trolls on the internet, while offensive, don’t threaten my kids. You know what does? A culture that denies grace to people who make mistakes,” Vance wrote. “A culture that encourages congressmen to act like whiny children.”
The vice president, who has three young children, said he loathed Khanna’s post, which he called “emotional blackmail.”
“I don’t worry about my kids making mistakes, or developing views they later regret. I don’t even worry that much about trolls on the internet. You know what I do worry about, Ro? That they’ll grow up to be a US Congressmen who engages in emotional blackmail over a kid’s social media posts,” Vance added in the reply. “You disgust me.”
“Emotional blackmail?”
“You disgust me?”
The main point, of course, is not JD’s sensitive nature — or even his fraudulence, sophistry or crocodile tears — but rather the menace at hand from the assault underway.
Marko Elez isn’t needed in the United States government for a simple reason.
It is impossible to love your country if you hate the people who live within it.
Elon Musk is spreading a contagion, and his disciples share his faith.
They do not believe that the greatest achievement in the history of human civilization — the United States of America — has a future.
They believe that they are the future, and that if there is to be a country, then they will be the state.
The answer to this proposition requires it be recognized as laughable, serious, dubious, dangerous, and very real all at once.
It is crazy and happening. Right now.
The answer must be NO.
It must be STOP.
The intentions of Elon Musk are obvious. They must be opposed with every ounce of political power that Democratic Party leaders can muster, which includes staring Trump down over a government shutdown.
This is the battle line.
This is the ground on which a great political battle must be fought.
The fight is about the power and prerogatives of Congress. It is about stopping the assault of techno fascists on the government in the name of necessities that are vague, dishonest or fantastical — or all three at once — and are unlawful and unconstitutional.
The Washington, DC, Democrats who have embraced impotence as a strategy have done so because they have chosen comfort and accommodation over conflict and opposition
It is a detestable and dishonorable choice.
Fight back now.
Do not be afraid.
First of all, this dipshit losing a job he should never have had in the first place comes no where near “ruining this kid’s life.” Secondly, I don’t extend “grace” to someone who does something despicable and then sees no need to apologize for it. It’s a bad lesson for Vance to teach someone he refers to as a kid. I have a question though. What do you think about a woman, Usha, who would stay married to a husband who tolerates expressions of hatred for her and her children? Last of all, Vance sees no problem with ruining the lives of all the government workers he and his gang of thugs are causing to be unemployed. Where is that grace?
For those of you keeping score at home, Ro Khana is a legitimate leader that the Dems could use in this dark hour. He’s just getting started and he’s smart, tough and a graceful and erudite man. Unfortunately, the rest of the country won’t elect Gavin Newsome, but Ro Khana gives me hope for the side of decency, sanity, respect for all of Gods creatures, and victory in 2028.
