• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

Master Threads


Bill Gates is angry that Elon Musk is editorializing on X about the internal politics of Europe, from the United Kingdom to Germany. The outraged Gates claims we don’t allow (hired) foreigners to interfere in our domestic politics and don’t do that to others.
Really. Is he joking, or simply completely misinformed?
1. Does Gates remember Christopher Steele, the British subject and ex-spy who interfered in the 2016 presidential election by fabricating a venomous dossier to destroy the Trump campaign? Yes, it is illegal to hire foreign nationals to work in American presidential campaigns, but that stopped neither Hillary Clinton who used three paywalls to hide her payments to Steele nor the FBI who hired him as an informant and helped spread his salacious lies throughout the media and government.
2. Does Gates remember the British Labor callout to enlist British activists and financial support for them to swarm American swing states in service to the 2024 Kamala Harris campaign?
3. Closer to home, has Gates ever complained about Swiss national and multibillionaire Johann Georg Wyss, and his multimillionaire donations that have poured into Democratic coffers to sway our elections via his “Hub Project”? That long-standing interference makes Musk’s postings seem amateurish in comparison.
4. For that matter, surely Gates is familiar with the chronic efforts of both the Clinton administration (by its own admission) and Obama administration to interfere in elections in Israel over some 20 years in a serial effort to defeat Benjamin Netanyahu— that included inter alia funding with taxpayer monies anti-Netanyahu political groups.
So please, Mr. Gates, spare us you very selective outage about Mr. Musk, given your prior deafening silence on hired foreign interference here and Democratic efforts to interfere in the elections of others—including fueling the Ukrainian opposition in the 2014 Ukrainian election .
