This ties in directly with the post immediately below about the Democrats’ attempt to punish McDonalds, because a McDonalds restaurant allowed Donald Trump to do a campaign stop there.
Elon Musk has emerged as our most important champion of free speech, a concept that is anathema to the Democratic Party. Not only that, he has actually endorsed Donald Trump for president, and has brought his considerable skills and resources to bear on Trump’s behalf. That, obviously, cannot be permitted. So Musk’s companies have come under comprehensive fire from many government agencies:

Via InstaPundit. It is worth noting that Musk is also under attack by the European Union, which is closely allied with our Democratic Party and hates dissent just as much as the Democrats do.
What is funny about that graphic, showing the agencies that have attacked Elon’s businesses, is that the New York Times created it and thinks it’s terrific. There is a name for this: government demanding control over business, government powers brought to bear to squash dissent, an ostensibly free press parroting the government’s line. It starts with an F.
But, you might say, this isn’t all-out fascism. For it to be full-scale fascism, the government would have to be arresting its political opponents, or at least trying to. Oops, never mind: Joe Biden says, “We gotta lock him up.”
Of course, that isn’t anything new. The Democrats have brought multiple criminal prosecutions against Trump, all of them absurd on the merits, and all intended to bring about his incarceration. Happily, those prosecutions–so far, at least–haven’t been any more successful than their assassination attempts–so far, at least.
All of this makes me glad that we have the Democratic Party safeguarding Our Democracy™️. Who knows what would happen to Our Democracy™️ if the Democrats stopped trying to destroy all those who disagree with them.
If you think I am exaggerating, don’t forget that I run an organization whose office was firebombed, and our building destroyed, in January.
