The judge overseeing the lawsuit against Elon Musk and his $1 million giveaway to registered voters who sign a petition supporting the First and Second amendments has moved up a hearing in the case to Thursday at 10 a.m., bumping it up from Friday, according to a new order.

The order from Philadelphia Judge Angelo Foglietta states that "all parties must be present."

Everytime I hear about this guy, the picture of him as a slave-owner becomes clearer.

I hate him.

Bombs provided by Biden and American fighter jets were used during the attacks against (mostly) civilian targets.

The Swedish media reported of "explosions after Israel warned the citizens to leave" to whitewash the crimes of Israeli regime.
