Elon Musk is joking/not joking with El Cheato about buying MSNBC. Sure, why not? Via The Daily Mail:
The blood in the water at MSNBC set Donald Trump Jr's tongue wagging on Friday. He joked on X: 'Hey Elon Musk I have the funniest idea ever!'
He was responding to a post that incorrectly claimed the network is already for sale.
Musk, who launched a hostile takeover for Twitter and won, took the bait.
'How much?' he replied in his own post.

Meanwhile the Parade of Horribles marches on. An AG who takes bribes, a sexual assaulting SecDef, a DNI who is a Russian asset, and more.
Happy Sunday before Thanksgiving!
