Elon Musk was lectured by a MSNBC host for sharing a Hunter Biden meme on Twitter Thursday, but the Telsa CEO had a delicious come back.

Another video of Hunter Biden was found on his ‘laptop from hell’ showing the First Son weighing crack rocks and arguing with a hooker:

In response, Musk shared a meme of man wearing a hat covered in cameras, captioned “Hunter Biden every time he buys crack and hookers.”

“A+ for cinematography,” Musk further noted.

While the rest of the world found it hilarious, MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle tried to lecture Musk about using his platform to do better things.

Imagine the positive impact you could have on the world if you used the extraordinary amount of influence and power you have to spread decency, kindness and positivity?

Musk’s response was pure gold:

Imagine if MSNBC did that

Probably surprised to receive any response, Ruhle then shamelessly attempted to get Musk to come on her show:

No need to imagine – come on over any night of the week big guy 11PM EST @11thHour on @MSNBC
We’ve got one goal – to get better & smarter. I invite you to join & help us do just that.
How about tonight?

— Stephanie Ruhle (@SRuhle)

“Big guy?”

If you put all this energy into interviewing Hunter and asking him about his laptop… I would actually TRY to watch. 🥰

Princess Charlotte has stolen the show at today’s Commonwealth Games in Birmingham. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge sat with a grinning Charlotte as they began their day at the Sandwell Aquatics Centre by watching the swimming.

William and Kate arrived on Tuesday shortly after the Earl and Countess of Wessex and their children, Lady Louise and James. The duchess was pointing and explaining things to her daughter, while William held one of the official programmes.

The royals were cheering and applauding alongside the crowd for England 1,500m freestyle hopeful Luke Turley. After rolling her eyes following a comment from her father, Charlotte then cracked a smile as Turley’s heat came to a close.

She wore a black and white stripped dress and had her hair in plaited pig tails while her mum looked chic in an all white suit. Royals have been attending different events all week.

But it was Charlotte’s appearance – without her siblings – which captured the public’s attention like no other. The Cambridges attended days after the Commonwealth Games opening ceremony, which saw Charles, the Prince of Wales, attend.

Charles said: “On October 7 last year, this specially created Baton left Buckingham Palace to travel across the Commonwealth. Over the past 294 days, it has carried not only my message to you, but also the shared hopes and dreams of each nation and territory through which it has passed, as it made its way to Birmingham.”

Royal fans have been left delighted by Charlotte’s appearance – days after her sweet video message to the Lionesses ahead of the Euro 2022 final at Wembley on Sunday.

George Clooney has said he wouldn’t run for president of the United States because he would rather have a “nice life.”

In an interview with the BBC’s Andrew Marr yesterday (October 10th), the Oscar winner said entering politics does not appeal to him, and instead looks forward to reducing his workload.

Asked if he would ever consider entering politics, he said: “No, because I would actually like to have a nice life.”

“I turned 60 this year and I had a conversation with my wife and we were working a lot, as we both do, and I said we have to think of these as the halcyon years,” he added.

He added that at 60 he can still play basketball and do the things he loves. He recalled telling his wife Amal Clooney that they “have to make sure we enjoy and live these years in the best possible way.”

Clooney is well known for his extensive humanitarian work and support for the Democratic Party, prompting previous speculation that a Presidential run could be on the cards.

He was speaking to Marr about his new coming-of-age film The Tender Bar, which he has directed and stars Ben Affleck.

Clooney also reflected on Donald Trump’s presidency, describing the state of the U.S. as a “battered child”.

Defending Joe Biden’s current low polling numbers, he said: “There’s a lot of things that have to be repaired, there’s a lot of healing that has to happen, and it’s going to take time.”

Speaking about Trump, he said: “It’s so funny, because he was just this knucklehead. I knew him before he was a president. He was just a guy who was chasing girls.”

“Every time you went out he’d be like, ‘What’s the name of that girl?’ That’s all he was.”

George and Amal Clooney attended the U.K. premiere for The Tender Bar at the BFI London Film Festival yesterday.

The film is adapted from ​​journalist J.R. Moehringer’s memoir about growing up without a father, and filling that gap in a Long Island pub with his uncle Charlie (Ben Affleck). Tye Sheridan plays J.R., while the screenplay is penned by The Departed screenwriter William Monahan.

Speaking to PA News at the premiere, Clooney said: “Most of the films I do are pretty dark and this one felt light and it felt like the world was pretty dark so I wanted to work on something that was a little lighter.”

The Tender Bar is slated for release on December 17th, 2021.

Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm laughed out loud when asked during an interview Friday what her plan was to ease gasoline prices nationwide.

“That is hilarious,” Granholm laughed when asked by a Bloomberg anchor. “Would that I had the magic wand on this.”

Granholm then blamed Middle Eastern oil providers, repeating a Biden administration claim that oil prices are largely out of the federal government’s control. Crude oil prices, which are closely linked to both inflation and gasoline prices, surged again Friday after the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and Russian producers declined to boost output at President Joe Biden’s request.

Gasoline prices, meanwhile, increased and remained at their highest level since September 2014, according to Energy Information Administration (EIA) data released Monday. The average cost at the pump hit $3.42 per gallon on Friday, up 61.6% compared to one year ago, AAA data showed.

Heating prices for American consumers this winter are also expected to rise as a result of increased energy costs, the federal government said last month. Propane heating costs reached their highest level since 2011 in October and are expected to climb as it gets colder.

WATCH:

Meanwhile, the Biden administration has pushed numerous policies and executive actions — including blocking U.S. pipelines, abandoning drilling projects and banning oil and gas leases on federal lands — that have created uncertainty in the fossil fuel industry. The president has pledged to make the U.S. electric grid carbon-free by 2035 and achieve net zero emissions economy-wide by 2050.

Biden’s actions have made the U.S. increasingly dependent on foreign sources of oil, evidenced by his calls for OPEC and Russia to up supply, according to critics. The U.S. has an estimated 47.1 billion barrels of oil reserves nationwide, the EIA said in an annual report in January.

“Millionaire Energy Secretary Granholm laughs as she acknowledges that the Biden regime has put OPEC back in charge of global oil production and soaring prices that are harming non-millionaire Americans. Under President Trump, American frackers were large and in charge of both, and prices were low,” Steve Milloy, a former member of the Trump transition team, said in a statement.

“No US government official has ever thrown up their hands and cackled at Americans being gouged at the pump,” he continued. “Of course, no American President has purposefully gone out of his way to empower OPEC either.”
