THE BASE IS STARTING TO EAT ITSELF:

Two of Donald Trump’s biggest ideological supporters have joined forces to attack Trump’s biggest financial supporter. The base is clearly starting to contemplate life after Trump. Steve Bannon and Marjorie Taylor Greene can’t stand Elon Musk, and even MTG and Laura Loomer are at each other’s throats. Not to mention the massive fall out about the ‘plane’ Trump accepted with open arms. Tucker Carlson, Ben Shapiro and a number of MAGA influencers are struggling to justify the president’s outrageous corruption. 

The truth is slowly starting to dawn on them that Trump is only interested in Trump. He’ll be whatever you want him to be. Christian, white nationalist, conservative, Islamophobic, pro-Jewish, antisemitic, libertarian, anti-war yet also pro-war. He has no fixed ideology apart from feeding his insatiable ego. Everyone in his orbit is merlely a means to an end. People and principles are as disposable as junk food wrappers.

WHETHER SHE’S ‘REALLY’ A CHRISTIAN IS SUBJECTIVE: Artificial intelligence has become so ubiquitous that even your congresswoman might be crashing out publicly because an AI chatbot said something about her she didn’t like. On Friday, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) started arguing with Grok, Elon Musk’s AI chatbot, after it had responded to a user query by questioning her adherence to Christianity.

“@grok the judgement seat belongs to GOD, not you a non-human AI platform,” the congresswoman wrote, initially addressing the non-sentient jumble of code trained to regurgitate things it finds on the internet. 

“Grok is left leaning and continues to spread fake news and propaganda. When people give up their own discernment, stop seeking the truth, and depend on AI to analyze information, they will be lost,” she added. 

Grok had written that while Greene “identifies as a Christian, expressing faith in Jesus and traditional” her “Christian nationalism and support for conspiracy theories, like QAnon, spark debate.” The bot added that “critics, including religious leaders, argue her actions contradict Christian values of love and unity, citing her defense of January 6 and divisive rhetoric” and that “supporters may see her stances as faith-driven.”

“Whether she’s ‘really’ a Christian is subjective, depending on personal and theological views. Her faith appears genuine to her, but public actions create controversy,” the AI wrote.

THE JUDGEMENT SEAT BELONGS TO GROK: Most recently, Grok appeared to be programed to push conspiracy theories about white genocide in South Africa. The AI responded to practically every question it was asked by redirecting the conversation to claims of white genocide, and casting doubt on evidence disproving the theory. 

Clearly the output of Grok can be modified to account for the political beliefs of interested parties like Musk. If Greene is so bothered by Grok’s description of her religious values, she — as the head of Congress’ Department of Government Efficiency liaison committee — should have no problem asking Musk to re-code the offending bot. 

After all, actually changing her behavior to align with the values she claims to uphold would be unthinkable. – By Nikki McCann Ramirez for Rolling Stone.

AN ELITIST OUTSIDER: Donald Trump’s original political guru Steve Bannon revealed that Elon Musk’s attempts to gain access to secret briefings on war plans ultimately resulted in the end of his White House bromance. Bannon – whose influence during Trump’s first term compares to ‘First Buddy’ Musk in the second – has labeled the Tesla billionaire as an elitist outsider and interloper in a political movement he helped shape from the ground up.

‘You could feel it. Everything changed. The fever had been broken,’ Bannon told The Atlantic. 

Access to the closely guarded military plan would have marked a sharp expansion of Musk’s role as a Trump adviser who has spearheaded efforts to cut U.S. government spending. It would also fuel questions about conflicts of interest for Musk, who as the head of both Tesla and SpaceX has business interests in China and with the Pentagon.

PARASITIC ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT: Now, Bannon may be taking a victory lap against someone he has hated being in Trump’s inner circle from the beginning. Known for his ruthlessly populist vision, Bannon’s blistering attacks have branded Musk everything from a ‘parasitic illegal immigrant’ to a ‘truly evil person,’ drawing clear battle lines inside the MAGA camp.

The tug-of-war reflects a deeper ideological struggle within MAGA. Behind the scenes, Musk grew irritated by Bannon’s relentless attacks, though he has engaged only sporadically. Bannon, meanwhile, is relentless, and according to his inner circle, he sees the fight less about personal insults but who gets to chart the course for MAGA after Trump.

‘He’s looking into the future, and he’s saying, “Oh no, there’s an atheistic, amoral, C.C.P.-aligned, unaccountable foreigner that’s going to be the head of the MAGA movement at some point,”‘ said Raheem Kassam, editor-in-chief of The National Pulse and a close Bannon ally. ‘And I think he’s right to express the concerns in the way he’s doing it.’

INSURMUSKTABLE: While Trump tries to hold the warring camps together, the schism runs deep. Bannon left no doubt in a New York Times interview that the chasm between him and Musk is ‘probably insurmountable.’ 

‘He’s still not a populist nationalist, he’s a globalist,’ Bannon said. Bannon has blasted Musk over immigration, particularly his support for H-1B visas. ‘Billionaires like Musk will abandon MAGA the second it stops serving their interests,’ Bannon has warned repeatedly.

President Trump has noticeably turned his attention away from Musk, sending him fewer messages of support on his social media account in recent weeks. Trump did not mention Musk in any of his Truth Social posts in April or May, according to a Politico analysis of his posts. That’s a steep decline from when he first took office and was constantly posting about DOGE and Musk’s accomplishments. – By Stephen M. Lepore for DMail.

A WASHED UP HAG WITH ROID RAGE: Far-right activist and Trump-ally Laura Loomer has attacked Georgia Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene with an aggressive rant on social media.

“Curious how you can call me a racist for saying ‘the White House will smell like curry’ and call for me to be silenced and banned from Trump world… but then you can defend and laugh at @TonyHinchcliffe’z comment about Puerto Ricans being trash,” Loomer wrote on X.

“Can you just be honest that you are a jealous b**** with Roid Rage and you want to sabotage my professional success instead of pretending like you care about claims of ‘racism’?”

“You are such a hypocrite. You are such a jealous washed up hag who doesn’t want any other women to have professional success so you lie and smear them with false claims. You cannot attack me for what I said and then simultaneously defend @TonyHinchcliffe. “You’re just a lying b****. Hopefully more people come to see it. No wonder why your husband divorced you.”

CONSIDER THIS YOUR WARNING: Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, Republican of Georgia, said on Friday that she would not run for Senate in 2026. The revelation — a huge relief to Republicans who feared she would challenge Democratic Senator Jon Ossoff and jeopardize their chance at defeating him — came 1,200 words deep into a screed against her party that Ms. Greene posted on social media on Friday night.

In her tirade against the forces she blamed for standing in her way, Ms. Greene ripped the National Republican Senatorial Committee, G.O.P. consultants, pollsters, wealthy donors, the institution of the Senate and the Republican lawmakers who serve in it who she said “sabotage Trump’s agenda.”

Ms. Greene appeared frustrated and angry at detractors in her own party.

“I won’t fight for a team that refuses to win, that protects its weakest players, and that undermines the very people it’s supposed to serve,” she wrote. “To the elite retreaters, the consultants, and the establishment: consider this your warning.”

DO THE MATH: Space Lazer Marge even vented her fury at the president himself.

“I represent the base and when I’m frustrated and upset over the direction of things, you better be clear, the base is not happy. I campaigned for no more foreign wars. And now we are supposedly on the verge of going to war with Iran.”

“When you are losing MTG, you are losing the base. And Trump isn’t on the ballot in the future, so do the math on that,”
