After more discussion about how the land of the free is becoming less free by the day, there's some chat about Musk's first cabinet meeting as the de-facto president before the topic turns to THAT Trump-Gaza AI video.

But worry not, because there are some lighter underrated tweets to leave you feeling hopeful and a delicious French pudding to boot.
