Rich people can get away with anything. Maybe we're the fools for not connecting this to the Kardashians. Kim, Chloe, and... another one are trying to influence who'll be Japan's new prime minister because one of them wants to crack down on influencer tourism.

Musk just tweeted out a death threat against a Presidential candidate and still has fucking security clearance.

I mean, this really just belies all the lies post-9/11 from the conservatives about how they cared deeply about US security. (It was Security Theater then, it's Security Theater now)

Just like any shitty corporation, security is almost always compromised by high-level officials that think the rules do not apply to them.

How the fuck is this country even still standing at this point with this chicanery and buffoonery at the reigns?

Basically because various parts of the government were pitted against each other, by design. Various organizations and levels of government have their own objectives, interests and resources and operate with varying amounts of independence and interdependence. It's frankly messy and creates some inefficiency, but it's sort of like biodiversity - a problem that impacts part of the government doesn't impact all of it in the same way or at the same time, so it doesn't completely collapse or grind to a halt.
