Tucker Carlson Warns Elon Musk 'Will Be Destroyed' if Kamala Harris Wins

Elon Musk "will be destroyed" if Kamala Harris wins the 2024 election, according to Tucker Carlson.

Speaking with former President Donald Trump's White House strategist, Steve Bannon, on War Room on November 4, the day before the presidential election, the former Fox News host said that given Musk's position as a federal contractor, he has "the most to lose" by backing Trump.

"I mean, Elon Musk joked to me, and he has, I think, many times, that he's going to go to prison if Trump loses," Carlson said.

"I don't know if he's going to prison but he'll be destroyed for sure, and he's doing it anyway, so that gives a lot of different people heart."

Musk holds over $3 billion in government contracts from his companies, SpaceX and Tesla. During this election, he has been an active Trump supporter, surrogate, and strategist.

He has spoken at Trump rallies and actively posted to his X (formerly Twitter) platform in favor of Trump. He also initiated a lottery prize for registered voters in swing states, monetarily rewarding them for signing a petition on the First and Second Amendments. The Justice Department is investigating this lottery.

Carlson spoke to Bannon about what Trump will do and who will rally around him if either side contests the 2024 election results.

Carlson said he believes that if the election is contested, Trump will have more people supporting him in 2024 than he did in 2020 because people like Elon Musk have a lot on the line and will, therefore, work harder to ensure a Trump victory.

"You see people with a lot to lose on Trump's side, and they've said so publicly, and they're marked for destruction if this doesn't work, so they will be at Trump's side in the aftermath if this is contested," he said.

He added, "I'll pray that it isn't [contested], you know. I think all of us do, on both sides, pray that it's not contested, but if it is it's not going to be Trump out alone..."

Bannon was released from prison last week after serving a four-month sentence for two counts of contempt of Congress after not responding to a House Select Committee-issued subpoena investigating the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Since returning from prison, Bannon has spoken to Newsweek about his election predictions, saying he is 100 percent certain of a Trump win.

With the advent of the Webb Space Telescope, the problem has pushed up against theoretical limits. The matter falling into a black hole generates radiation, with faster feeding meaning more radiation. And that radiation can drive off nearby matter, choking off the black hole's food supply. That sets a limit on how fast black holes can grow unless matter is somehow fed directly into them. The Webb was used to identify early supermassive black holes that needed to have been pushing against the limit for their entire existence.

Arrests. Classified documents. And suspected leaks that may have harmed efforts to free hostages held by Hamas in order, critics say, to give Benjamin Netanyahu public cover for failing to agree to a cease-fire deal. The Israeli prime minister was engulfed in scandal Monday over a case involving one of his aides that has sent shockwaves across the country.

The firestorm — brought into public view when an Israeli court loosened a gag order Sunday night — has enraged Netanyahu's political opponents and hostage families. Netanyahu has denied any wrongdoing and distanced himself from the case, but critics have alleged that the Israeli leader put hostages' lives and national security at risk to buttress his hardline position in stalled cease-fire talks by leaking Gaza documents to friendly media outlets.

The sackings -- a 50 percent rise on the 394 dismissed the previous year -- include 74 officers kicked out of policing for sexual offences and misconduct. Another 18 officers were dismissed for possessing indecent images of children, according to the figures compiled by the College of Policing, an independent public body.

The reputation of policing in the UK has been left in tatters since the 2021 kidnap, rape and murder of marketing executive Sarah Everard by a serving officer in London's Metropolitan Police who was later jailed for the rest of his life. In another shocking case, an officer from the same unit last year received 36 life sentences for a "monstrous" string of 71 sexual offences, including rapes against 12 women.

The most common reason for dismissal, with 125 cases, was dishonesty, according to the latest figures. Another 71 were forced out for discriminatory behaviour.

In January 2023, the Met revealed that 1,071 officers in the 34,000-strong force had been under investigation for domestic abuse and violence against women and girls. England and Wales has a police workforce of more than 147,000 across the 43 forces.

Bought some thick-ass deli bacon for this, and hoo boy, does it seem like it paid off.

This is the FWSY recipe, modified slightly to compress the schedule. I'll post the original recipe below, but basically I feed the starter at 4:30am (infants, gotta love em), then put it in the oven with the light on. Next alteration was including 300g of starter instead of the 200? I think, that's called for..... and I doubled the bacon grease. I'm here for a good time, not a long time.

Anyways, I haven't cut it open yet, but this was a beautifully steamed loaf, probably the shiniest I've ever baked.

I'll be honest, I'm quite proud of this one. It also smells HEAVENLY.
