QAnon Member Believed to Be Government Insider Is Just a Florida Dude
One of the big QAnon games, GhostEzra, has been outed as just a Trump fan in Florida. Another Florida man. No connections, nothing. Just a guy saying shit.

This will do nothing to slow down the Q followers.
Meet Tesla Bot, Your New Overlord
Musk promises Telsa bot is just going to take care of those boring repetitive and physically grinding tasks that we don’t like doing.

They Took Britney's Dogs Away!
Okay so this gets complicated but you really don’t care about the details. Britney’s dog-tender/nurse/housekeeper removed the dogs because she says Britney was neglecting them. She was paid by Brit’s dad, so she’s blaming him. The staffer had taken pictures of the neglect and that lead to the alleged phone slap. None of this makes sense, but Miss Spears would like her dogs back.
Isn’t this a little like the first reel of the Wizard of Oz.

It’s his 5th trip down the aisle, or at least it will be assuming he goes through with his latest wedding plans. His last divorce took place in 2015. Then he had a short but hot relationship with Rula Jebreal who moved in, and out faster than you could blink.
Here’s hoping they have a happy six months. #money #imalrightjackkeepyourhandsoffmycash
