"Russification of America" is a phrase worth remembering. Also Elon should read up on Berezovsky and the other first gen Russian oligarchs and see how that worked out for them.
On a related note: it can't be overstated how much Hegseth would be a bog standard MOD appointment in Russia. He's a wildly unqualified drunkard who is easily controlled, has pledged his loyalty to dear leader, and cares more about politics than process. Russification of America is a worrying trend.
the 'they're all corrupt, nothing matters' attitude is one of the reasons Russia is a godawful place and it's very worrying how much it's spreading in the United States

"I'm the richest guy so no one can touch me" is what Khodorkovsky and Berezovsky thought too

One thing i have been doing a lot is reading about 1990s/2000s Russia (including reviewing a new book on Boris Berezovsky). Hard not to spot the parallels in many respects

Boris Berezovsky (2013) – Found dead by hanging in the UK. A coroner returned an open verdict, and debate continues over whether it was suicide or foul play.

Who will win? Trump or Musk?
Obviously Trump. The state usually wins over plutocrats, who suffer from hubris patently overestimating their own power & popularity.
I have seen it time and again in Russia: Gusinsky, Berezovsky, Khodorkovsky...

I can't help comparing Trump-Tech Bro relationship to Yeltsin and his media-industrial oligarchs. Doesn't really stand up as analogy for lots of reasons. Musk isn't an American Berezovsky. But still, there's something there ...

Would have been fascinating to watch the Berezovsky vs Putin battle play out in real time on social media if it had existed in its current form during the late 1990s and early 00s

they deserve to win and make gains. He’s essentially petrified in the back of his mind, that he’s missies the proverbial boat and he can’t go back. He’s lost. He just can’t admit it.

@FT: "Trump’s tax bill triumph could be a poisoned chalice for Republicans"
Trump's mad budget reminds me of the Chernomyrdin-Berezovsky-communist budget in Russia in October 1997, which caused the Russian financial meltdown in August 1998.

azioni. Putin quindi "invitò" Berezovsky a lasciare la Russia e le sue azioni furono assegnate a Roman Abramovich, come parte di Sibneft. È importante sottolineare che Berezovsky aiutò a finanziare "Russia unita", il partito politico che avrebbe formato la prima base parlamentare di Vladimir Putin,

Again, I do think it's important to remember that very little of the Yeltsin era survived past the mid-2000s. Not the government, and not the people. Russia looks nothing like it did in the 1990s.
Chubais and Gusinsky are in exile. Khodorkovsky spent a decade in jail. Berezovsky is dead.

Yeltsin and his circle, who enriched themselves so much while ordinary people suffered, were loathed by Russians the end of the 1990s. But Yeltsin and those around him tried to blame the West for the effects of their mismanagement and corruption.
