ER Editor: This took us by surprise. Elon’s live chat with Alice Weidel, leader of the AfD, took place yesterday, Jan 9.
Another wonderfully orchestrated event to show the EU leaders in a poor light, as they so richly deserve —
Big Brother is watching you: 150 EU officials are supposed to monitor my conversation with @elonmusk. An EU that uses its bureaucracy to exercise censorship on social media is instilling the spirit of unfreedom. The #dsa threatens democracy! https://t.co/bKjTU1ZlGk

Always the big question —
Elon Musk presses AfD leader Weidel to unequivocally pledge support for Israel after she dodges question.

Stefan Homberg’s take —
Translation: Musk/Weidel: My Summary 1. @Alice_Weidel did Germany proud. 2. Speaking live in English in front of a large audience with an IQ booster like @elonmusk is incredibly demanding. 3. That is why he did not even ask provincials like Habeck, Merz or Scholz.
Musk/Weidel: Mein Resümee
1. @Alice_Weidel hat Deutschland alle Ehre gemacht.
2. Mit einem IQ-Bolzen wie @elonmusk live und Englisch vor großem Publikum zu sprechen, ist wahnsinnig fordernd.
3. Provinzler wie Habeck, Merz oder Scholz hat er deshalb gar nicht angefragt.— Stefan Homburg (@SHomburg) January 9, 2025

Is Weidel really herself? Bear with us. Carolyn would be Carolyn Bissette —

We believe it’s all another example of 5D chess. Including questions about supporting Israel.
Check out The Guardian’s take on this (MSM alert) —
Elon Musk heaps praise on AfD’s Alice Weidel during live talk on X
The almost 75-minute conversation covered everything from energy policy and education to their joint wish to slash German bureaucracy and prevent illegal immigration. Douglas Adams, Schopenhauer, the meaning of life, whether Adolf Hitler was a socialist or a far-right extremist and how to solve the Israel-Palestine conflict were also mulled over at length.
Musk and Weidel took swipes at “woke” views, and appeared to agree on everything – including the need to end the war in Ukraine, with Musk claiming: “President Trump is going to solve that conflict very quickly.”
Pressed as to “with what measures” this may happen, Musk appeared slightly flustered. “To be clear, this is up to President Trump. He is the commander in chief … I don’t want to speak for him … but it does require strong leadership in the States to get it done.”
…
Weidel and other party leaders appeared emboldened after Trump’s US election victory in November. Musk’s endorsement of the party seems to have buoyed the AfD further, say analysts, and could boost its acceptance among the German electorate.
Before Thursday’s talk on XSpace, the European Commission had said it would take a close look as to whether the discussion possibly violated its Digital Services Act (DSA). A spokesperson for the DSA said there was no objection to the discussion as such, rather its interest lay in the speculation that X was showing partiality towards certain types of subject matter.

The Liberty Beacon Project is now expanding at a near exponential rate, and for this we are grateful and excited! But we must also be practical. For 7 years we have not asked for any donations, and have built this project with our own funds as we grew. We are now experiencing ever increasing growing pains due to the large number of websites and projects we represent. So we have just installed donation buttons on our websites and ask that you consider this when you visit them. Nothing is too small. We thank you for all your support and your considerations … (TLB)
