BREAKING: The town hall of Limoges, built in 1873, didn’t survive today’s riots. The building’s spire has now collapsed

This is my last post on X, as I am boycotting everything related to Elon Musk. If you wish to follow me, you can do so on Facebook (facebook.com/whitneytilson) or Instagram (Whitneytilsonofficial) --------------- No surprise that the idea to stab our brave ally in the back came from Musk. As soon as Democrats take back Congress, they need to investigate him and cut off the tens of billions of dollars of government money his companies are profiting from. And every right-minded person should boycott his companies: don't buy a Tesla, stop using X, cancel Starlink, etc. Exclusive: Musk approached Trump to slow down Starlink in Ukraine telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2… Excerpt: Elon Musk approached Donald Trump with the idea of slowing down Starlink in Ukraine, The Telegraph can reveal. The billionaire tech entrepreneur approached the US president with the proposal to introduce speed limits on the system, which hampered Ukraine’s drone defences, according to four sources familiar with the discussions. One of the sources said Mr Trump “agreed” with Mr Musk’s suggestion, paving the way for the Pentagon to execute the slowdown on Starshield, the military-grade version of the satellite communications system. Mr Musk had previously blamed Mr Trump for the chaos, claiming any changes would have been decided by the US military and ultimately the president. At the time, Mr Trump was embroiled in a row with Volodymyr Zelensky over Ukraine’s strikes on Russian oil refineries. 2) Trump (Putin's useful idiot) then did Musk's bidding: Order to limit Starshield for Ukraine came from inside White House, sources say (reuters.com/world/europe/ord…) 3) And now Trump twists the knife in Ukraine's back. Lindsey Graham must be turning over in his grave. Trump Signs Order Exempting Russia From Sanctions Legislation The sanctions were part of legislation that was named after Senator Lindsey Graham, the South Carolina Republican who died in July. nytimes.com/2026/10/16/us/po… By Alan Rappeport Reporting from Washington Oct. 16, 2026, 9:55 p.m. ET President Trump signed an executive order on Friday night exempting Russia from new sanctions legislation that Congress passed last month, offering an economic lifeline to Russian President Vladimir V. Putin as the United States turns to Russia for help lowering gas prices. The new sanctions were intended to target Russian officials, oligarchs and financial institutions, and were part of legislation that was named after Senator Lindsey Graham, the South Carolina Republican who died in July after spending more than a year building support for the measure. The law, which is designed to squeeze the financial lifelines sustaining Russia’s war against Ukraine, also provided Mr. Trump with additional tariff authority that he could use to punish countries that continue to trade with Russia.

@ABC News continues to lie, this time privately to their friends in the press. This was a coordinated influence operation planted by our competition, not "premature publication". 7:01 AM October 7th, story goes live. Within minutes, dozens of high-profile commentators, politicians, and news outlets are sharing it with tens of millions of followers. We immediately contact ABC and demand they correct their false claims - after multiple rounds of refusal, they finally make a single one-word grammar edit. The editors stand by the reporting and insist the false claims are true. Finally, eight hours after I was forced to call them out publicly, they delete everything. The editors hide all the comments, the author deletes his X account, and the story is completely wiped from their website without any explanation, directly violating SPJ ethics standards and ABC's own internal rules. ABC is currently running a coverup operation, ignoring all of our requests for correction/retraction while telling their buddies to spread the word that this was nothing more than a CMS publication timeline error.

On this day in 2012: Facebook bought Instagram for $1 billion.

Justin Verlander has played 21 seasons in the majors. His final start was today. After 5⅓ innings, manager A.J. Hinch came out to take him out, then pointed to the stands. Genevieve, his 7-year-old daughter, sprinted onto the field in his jersey, ran to the mound, and hugged him. He started shaking and crying. He had no idea it was coming. Then he walked off holding her hand.❤️ His wife Kate and their little boy Bellamy (1) met them at the dugout.

8 knew what he was doing here.

what an asshole look at this behavior Moore was carted off the field 15 minutes later
