Left-wing lunatic Keith Olbermann has called for President Joe Biden to deport billionaire Twitter/X owner Elon Musk.
Olbermann issued the call in a video posted to where else but Twitter/X on Monday.
Watch:
IT’S TIME TO CANCEL THE GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS OF @ELONMUSK. He’s actively spreading post-hurricane disinformation AND turned Twitter-X into a donation-in-kind to Trump
AND RECLASSIFY HIS IMMIGRATION STATUS and deport him

“It is now time to cancel all of Elon Musk’s government contracts — Tesla, SpaceX, whatever other crap he’s selling us,” Olbermann began. “He is now actively engaged in a post-hurricane effort to spread potentially fatal disinformation and misinformation about FEMA’s recovery efforts and the impact in the affected states.”
“He is also now working in an in-kind donation turning Twitter/X into a Trump advertising campaign. It’s time to cancel all the contracts and re-assess his immigration status, and hopefully deport him the hell out of the country. And if we can’t do that by conventional means, President Biden, you have presidential immunity, get Elon Musk the F out of our country and do it now,” he added.
The leftist commentator’s absurd rant prompted accusations that he’s a fascist.
Look (*Language warning):
Sounds like something a fascist would do.

What a angry fascist tyrant you are, wanting to deport someone for speech. This is America bub, where we have, you know….freedom. Seek help.

Now that’s an extreme position. You would like to remove immigrants from this country who own companies & have influence and beliefs counter to yours. A much more extreme a view than deporting immigrants who’ve come to this country illegally. Sounds like a fascist.

@KeithOlbermann you’re the problem. Maybe we should deport you. Or maybe we should just dig enough into your past that we can lock you up. The problem with you fanatics is that you cannot handle someone with opposing views. Fuck you and all of your Stalinist, fascist friends.…

You want to deport an African Immigrant who legally came to United States and adapted to our culture, contributes to our technological advancement, and deprive him of the American dream he worked hard to obtain, because he’s not like you.
Why are you a fascist?

But Olbermann is more than a fascist. He’s also a liar. The so-called “post-hurricane” “disinformation and misinformation” Musk has been spreading has in fact been on-the-ground reports from his own employees who’ve been helping survivors of Hurricane Helene.
In a tweet posted around noon last Friday, he revealed that engineers with his company SpaceX — which has been on the ground setting up Starlink devices for affected communities — were being blocked in their efforts by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
As proof, he cited a note he received from one of his engineers.
“Hey Elon, update here on site of Asheville, NC,” the note read. “We have powered up two large operating bases for choppers to deliver goods into hands. We’ve deployed 300+ starlinks and outpour is it has saved many lives.”
“The big issue is FEMA is actively blocking shipments and seizing goods and services locally and locking them away to state they are their own. It’s very real and scary how much they have taken control to stop people helping. We are blocked now on the shipments of new starlinks coming in until we get an escort from the fire dept. but that may not be enough,” it continued.
In another tweet posted shortly thereafter, Musk shared another note he’d received from his engineers. This one further confirmed that FEMA was outright blocking their efforts.

The good news is that when Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg got word of all this, he got in touch with Musk and helped him resolve the issues his SpaceX employees were facing.
As for Olbermann’s accusation that Musk has turned X into “a Trump advertising campaign,” the same thing could be said about the corporate propaganda press and the astonishingly pro-Harris and anti-Trump content they habitually produce.
