Maybe just maybe those secret meetings in Montana are about

[malaise]

planning the provocation for Saturday.

[OLDMDDEM]

1. You could be right. I hope its to get this scumbag out of office. I know, I'm a dreamer.

[Grim Chieftain]

8. Please, please if there is a sane Republican

or benevolent being somewhere in the universe, let this horror end.

[OLDMDDEM]

10. YES!!!

[yorkster]

15. But you're not the only one ...

[H2O Man]

2. Recommended.

Yes, you are correct.

[Texin]

3. Well, as the old expression goes, "Man plans. God laughs."

[Amaryllis]

9. Do you have inside info? You said that is correct. Substantiation?

[pioche4]

4. What meetings in Montana?

didn't see anything...?

[malaise]

7. Here and there are some other threads

[Magoo48]

5. He has entered a minefield; every step down the course he's on now is potentially explosive.

[IronLionZion]

6. Any chance of an operation valkyrie

should seriously be considered.

[rsdsharp]

12. And no heavy tables this time.

[Codifer]

11. COINTELPRO

[Harker]

13. We'll see how fast a "parade" can shift into an operation.

[Harker]

14. Is Mike Flynn about to pop out of a cake? Or a tank?

[ancianita]

16. Maybe just maybe the Jan 6 pardons are all being called in. Thanks for the heads up.

[NCgayguy]

17. Hi Malaise!!

And all this time I just thought it was about a secret new facility for making couches!

LOL

[IthinkThereforeIAM]

22. Haha...

... ... eom.

[Diraven]

18. Could be meeting with militias

There are a lot of them based on the NW.

[Sneederbunk]

19. Planning for JD to replace TSF?

[Auggie]

20. That's my guess

Incumbent Vance would have a better shot at the White House than VP Vance in 2028. It ensures Trump and the cabal receive full pardons too.

[MontanaMama]

21. There were for sure two meetings.

The first one on May 31. It was held at the Paws Up Resort. It was a tech bro meeting. Elon Musk, Peter Thiel were among the 40 or so people there. My kiddo was working that day at the FBO where the private jets were received.

JD was scheduled to fly into Missoula on 6/7 to also go the Paws Up. He cancelled at the last minute and flew into Butte yesterday and reportedly went down to Dillon, MT which is literally in the middle of nowhere.

Lots of supposition that there is planning in the works to take down FOTUS. No evidence, just chit chat. I’m guessing there’s a billionaire with a private home somewhere in the Dillon area where there was some sort of a meeting. Shady Vance isn’t a fly fisherman that I know of and that’s really the only other reason one would make the trip to Dillon this time of year.

[Mike 03]

24. Just everyone needs to keep in mind, Peter Thiel is more than just a tech bro now

He is the co-founder and CEO of Palantir, a data and AI firm rumored to be helping this administration create master files that aggregate all our personal information in one place. This gives the administration enormous capabilities in terms of locating, harassing, compromising any American citizen. So the excuse for any meeting involving him could be "tech bro stuff" or "crypto" but in reality it could be much more sinister.

25. Thanks for the update

Very important

23. Kicking, and in case anyone missed this other DU post from today:

from relayerbob:

https://www.democraticunderground.com/100220386482

Watch out for this on Saturday
From Threads:

It is rumored that on June 14th, Proud Boys, and alt.. right groups plan to infiltrate the protests, attack the police and destroy property.
If violence breaks out at your protest sit DOWN.
Leave only the provocateurs standing
Please share far and wide. Do not let them provoke you

26. I will take Elon Musk for $400, malaise

Peter Thiel’s Deep Ties to Trump’s Top Ranks

Musk and Thiel have been intertwined since the early days of PayPal, which Thiel helped found and where Musk briefly served as CEO. Since then, Musk, who leads Tesla Inc., SpaceX and other companies, has become the world’s richest person, while Thiel has built a multifaceted empire ranging from software firm Palantir Technologies Inc. to investment offices with stakes in top Silicon Valley startups.

The early bonds between the billionaires have persisted, and others in their orbit have gained power and influence. The so-called PayPal Mafia — a group of Silicon Valley stars with links to the payments app's formative period — has become integral to the second Trump administration. The men — they’re all men — have overlapping business interests and have been outspoken about the importance of US tech dominance.

Thiel is an investor in several of Musk’s companies, including SpaceX, Neuralink and Boring Co., while Musk’s new DOGE effort has borrowed from the Thiel brain trust, recruiting staffers specifically from his world of philanthropy and business.

Musk began Trump apology effort after call with Vance, Wiles

Elon Musk's early morning tweet Wednesday saying he regretted going "too far" in criticizing President Trump came after a private phone call with White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles and Vice President Vance last Friday, sources tell Axios.

Why it matters: The call — confirmed by three people familiar with the discussion — signaled an effort by Musk to cool tensions with Trump after a week in which they'd feuded on social media, particularly over Musk's objections to Trump's signature tax and budget bill in Congress.

Zoom in: Friday's call began as a one-on-one discussion between Musk and Wiles, who then added Vance to the conversation, the sources said.

Vance is a close Musk ally — Musk was one of those who encouraged Trump to pick Vance as the GOP vice presidential nominee during the 2024 campaign. Vance essentially was caught in the middle of the Trump-Musk fight.

What is the quid pro quo and how does it help Trump?

Hmm

Don’t do it Elon! Release the flying monkeys and tell us what you have on Donnie boy! 😬
