| CNN's Dana Bash Accuses Elon Musk of Making Money By 'Breaking the Rules' |
| 2025-02-11 |
| [NEWSBUSTERS.ORG] Considering they just spectacularly lost a major defamation suit, CNN ...formerly the Cable News Network, now who know what it might stand for... has seemed remarkably unconcerned about throwing around wild accusations. On Monday's episode of Inside Politics With Dana Bash, Bash seemingly suggested that billionaire Elon Musk had made his money through illegal means, though she never provided evidence. She also lashed out at President Trump's voters, calling them ''the problem.'' Bash summed up what has always been CNN's transparent view of Trump when she said that what we ''cannot lose sight of,'' is that the President had a ''history'' of ''being litigious, slowing things down. I mean, we've seen that throughout his career in real estate and in business, and of course, as he made his way back to the presidency.'' ''Elon Musk,'' she continued, ''has that same MO, just the rules are there to be broken effectively, and that's how he became the richest man of the world, when it comes to disrupting. But now he is applying that to the federal government'' In effect, she accused Musk, while offering zero actual evidence, of being a criminal, of becoming the ''richest man in the world'' through illicit means, and of now bringing his criminality right into the heart of the Capitol itself. Not the best look when your outfit was just found liable of defamation. Bash went on to trash Musk for his proposal to systematically weed out corrupt and incompetent judges, which she sneered was ''just a window into his worldview.'' Washington Post national political news hound Sabrina Rodriguez agreed: I think hearing Elon Musk express his world view, and hearing Trump and J. D. Vance and other Republicans talk this way is chipping at public confidence in these institutions. I think that is something that Donald Trump ...The cad! Twice caught beating wimmin!... has done very effectively since he came into politics—The way he's talked about the justice system over many years, can make people skeptical of it. It could be pointed out that when the Biden administration came down very hard on more conservative courts and judges that they viewed as an impediment, CNN applauded heartily, particularly with Biden's action on student loans. CNN also gushed about the ProPublica hit pieces on conservative U.S. Supreme Court justices funded by liberal dark money, which the liberal media eagerly amplified because it damaged the court's credibility. Hypocrisy or double standard, anyone? |

| #2 Most of the folks that I've met who made big money, broke the rules in some fashion or another. Sometimes 'rules' are just the ways other folks think it should be done and the rich ones did it differently. |

| #1 If Dana Bash helps take down Musk and SpaceX well when Asteroid 2024 YF4 likely hits the Earth in 2032 possibly killing millions with no other big rockets to help .. She's going to have far too much BAD KARMA to ever deserve any afterlife or heaven in any religion. |
