And yet it happened. Some guy writing for Breitbart called Nolte. This item, this quote:
All Musk wrote was, “Interesting.”
Musk was responding to a xweet that revealed Cheney basically began her government career with USAID, the government outlet currently under fire from Musk’s DOGE group for its reckless and unaccountable spending to the tune of billions of taxpayer dollars.
“Liz Cheney, who led Trump’s impeachment and the mass imprisonment campaign against thousands of Trump supporters, was spawned out of USAID,” wrote Mike Benz, the executive director of Freedom Forum Online.
That is not where it gets strange. Rather that is from early in the item, and may even be totally true. As Cheney difiantly noted. And this later text is okay as well -
Obviously feeling defensive, the pardoned warmonger lashed into Musk’s “Interesting” comment via her verified Xwitter account.
“Damn right, @Elon. I’m proud of what America did to win the Cold War, defeat Soviet communism, and defend democracy,” the disgraced Cheney wrote. “Our nation stood for freedom. You may be unfamiliar with that part of our history since you weren’t yet an American citizen.”
That's a quote and Crabgrass agrees the Cheneys are warmongers, witness Iraq under the Bush-Cheney very-Republican right wing regimes.
Now, however things border on absurd - The "Huh?" moment -- and more -
Still, it was a revealing insult from Cheney to attack Musk’s Americanism. First, he chose to become an American, which tells you a lot. Second, the Cold War was not solely an American thing. Yes, American leadership won the Cold War, but Cold War politics was a global thing, a global fight for freedom versus tyranny. You did not have to live in America or be an American to understand those stakes.
Additionally, Cheney’s comment once again exposes who the left truly are, which is everything they accuse Trump of being. It’s a cheap shot, a way to “other” Elon Musk, a McCarthyite smear targeting his Americanism.
Hey, stop! Be honest! McCarthy was, first, a Republican, and secondly, he ruined careers, in ways which this Cheney statement obviously never approaches.
Moreover, McCarthy's henchman in ruining peope was Roy Cohn, who also served as Fred and Don's favorite lawyer before dying of AIDS, who lawyered on especially when New York authorities prosecuted their racism. (Again before Musk set foot in the U.S. of A.)
So this is colossal crap, as in be honest or be fit for the saying, give this Nolte fellow an enema and he'd disappear. He goes further -
But because Cheney is a beloved and bubbled member of the far left, she need not fear any repercussions for this kind of talk. Cheney and her confederates on the left always accuse Republicans and conservatives of the things they are guilty of: racism, fomenting violence, election interference, weaponizing the Department of Justice for political purposes, fascism, censorship, book banning, McCarthyism, and intolerance.
The man's head suffers from being in a dark place. Chaneys as far left? That puts Eisenhower and Nixon there too, which is simply a total exagerated fiction.
The man should be honest or stop writing. End of story.
