The party presented itself as an economically liberal,[25] Eurosceptic, and conservative movement in its early years.[26][27][28] AfD subsequently moved further to the right,[29] and expanded its policies under successive leaderships to include opposition to immigration,[30][31] Islam,[32] and the European Union.[33]

It has a policy focus on opposing Islam,[42][43][44] opposing immigration into Germany,[45] especially Muslim immigration into Germany,[46] welfare chauvinism,[37] Euroscepticism,[47][48] denial of human-caused global warming,[49][50] and supporting closer relations with Russia.[51]

When party founder Bernd Lucke had left AfD in 2015, he cited, among other reasons, an "anti-western, decidedly pro-Russian foreign and security policy orientation" as well as increasing calls to "pose the 'system question' with regard to our parliamentary democracy" as reasons for his departure from the party.[61] At that time, AfD was performing poorly in opinion polls, polling at around 3%, and was suffering infighting; however, an influx of refugees and migrants boosted their support later in 2015, with the party turning from matters related to the eurozone to focus on opposing migration, in particular Muslims and Muslim immigration.

Twitter chief executive Elon Musk rallied a team of roughly 80 engineers to reconfigure the platform’s algorithm so his tweets would be more widely viewed, tech news site Platformer has reported.

A disgruntled Musk called for an emergency effort after a tweet he sent during Sunday’s Super Bowl game failed to achieve as much engagement as a tweet from Joe Biden, interviews and internal documents reviewed by Platformer have revealed.

a Washington Post analysis found that Musk has recently significantly increased his rate of online posts about race and his concerns about perceived threats to Whiteness or what he views as calls for a “genocide” against White people.

In September, Musk posted on X to agree with a screenshot posted by another user that said White people faced a choice between being “conquered, enslaved, raped and genocided while being called ‘racist’” or reclaiming “our nations and our dignity while being called ‘racist.’” “Yes,” Musk replied.

In one of Musk’s recent posts on X about race the billionaire appeared to suggest that White people should be considered Indigenous to the United States. “It certainly makes no sense that everyone except Europeans can have a homeland,” he wrote. “It’s absolutely ridiculous when you think about it. Where did White people come from??”

Asked how long one’s ancestors must have been somewhere for them be considered Indigenous, Musk replied: “250 years sounds like plenty to me.”

If it wasn't for the tariffs, would Colossus be solar-powered? It would be much easier to make it solar powered, yeah. The tariffs are nuts, several hundred percent. Don't you know some people? The president has... we don't agree on everything and this administration is not the biggest fan of solar. We also need the land, the permits, and everything. So if you try to move very fast, I do think scaling solar on Earth is a good way to go, but you do need some amount of time to find the land, get the permits, get the solar, pair that with the batteries.

I just repeatedly tackle the limiting factor. Whatever the limiting factor is on speed, I'm going to tackle that. If capital is the limiting factor,
20:52 20 minutes, 52 seconds then I'll solve for capital. If it's not the limiting factor, I'll solve for something else.
