Elon Musk baby mama Ashley St. Clair reveals next move a year after self-described ‘career suicide' scandal
Elon Musk's baby mama, Ashley St. Clair, has revealed her next venture after a year of so-called 'career suicide' following the announcement of her child with the billionaire SpaceX mogul. The conservative influencer launched the 'Bad Advice' podcast on Monday, uploading the first episode to Musk's platform, X, full of hair-brained ramblings on everything from the attack on ex-DOGE staffer Big Balls to how 'hot' Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom has let California slip into a homeless crisis. 'Well, after a year of unplanned career suicide, many questionable life choices and a gap in my LinkedIn profile that cannot legally be explained, I've decided to start a podcast,' St. Clair said in the 30-minute clip. Advertisement 3 The conservative influencer launched the 'Bad Advice' podcast on Monday, uploading the first episode to Elon Musk's X platform. Ashley St. Clair/X 'Unlike your Ben Shapiros or your Megyn Kellys, I'm not starting this because I think my big brain thoughts and my podcast mic are the greatest gift to humanity. 'I actually think I have the worst ideas, so consider everything out of my mouth a cautionary tale,' she quipped. Advertisement St. Clair, who claimed to have given birth to Elon Musk's 13th child in an X post in February, stated she was getting 'evicted' and had secured an essential $10,000 sponsorship from trade company Polymarket for the episode. She previously told The Post that Musk provided her with a lavish apartment in New York's Financial District — where rent for a two-bedroom can soar to nearly $40,000, according to StreetEasy. St. Clair went on to slam Edward Coristine, the former member of the Department of Government Efficiency known as Big Balls, who was beaten and bloodied by a mob of 10 minors as he thwarted a carjacking attempt in the nation's capital, according to DC police. 3 St. Clair claimed to have given birth to Elon Musk's 13th child. New York State Court Advertisement 'The damage was on par with what I sustained after I told my toddler he couldn't watch Paw Patrol,' she said, referring to Coristine as 'Elon Musk's DOGE crony' as the Tesla CEO spearheaded the Trump administration's cost-cutting agency. 'Two teenagers tried to steal a car, and instead of just letting them take it, Big Balls decided to intervene. He was with his girlfriend or lady partner, whatever the Musk orbit calls their non-committal fluid breeding vessel contenders these days,' St. Clair rambled. She then blasted the Trump administration for its subsequent federal crime crackdown in the nation's capital. 'The White House is apparently considering giving Big Balls the Presidential Medal of Freedom for getting his a– beat, which is fascinating because I was under the impression that Republicans were morally opposed to participation trophies,' she said. Advertisement 'Since when does losing a street fight make you Rosa Parks?' In a separate bit, St. Clair commented on TikToker Kendra Hilty, who went viral after posting a series of videos professing her love for her psychiatrist and relationship with an AI chatbot named 'Henry.' She joked that Hilty was lucky to have found ultimate love with a computer. 'She's probably libeling her psychiatrist. And so what if she's in love with Chat GPT with Henry? You know what Henry won't do? Henry won't sue her for full custody even when he doesn't see the kids,' she charged. St. Clair ended the marathon commentary session with a speech about Newsom, the cost of living and the homeless crisis in California. 3 went on to slam Ex-DOGE staff member, Big Balls, and make several jokes about custody battles with billionaires. Michael Nagle for NY Post 'He's hot. He's tall. He's got the hair, the teeth, the smug … He's got the hot supervillain vibes, very Patrick Bateman to me. He's like, if Patrick Bateman pretended to care about climate change, you could drop him into an Axe body spray commercial or a Senate hearing, same expression,' she said of Newsom. 'Crime is also through the roof in California. Same racket, endless task forces, community dialogues, pilot programs. Nothing changes except the balance sheets of every consultant in Sacramento,' she said. Advertisement 'Who needs Medicare when a TikTok duet hits better than the meds ever will. If you want to win, don't make life better, make the show better. Gavin gets that …. this is also why they lose their mind over someone like Zohran Mamdani,' St. Clair concluded, name-dropping the Democratic socialist Big Apple mayoral front-runner. In a previous exclusive sit-down from her glitzy Manhattan pad, St. Clair, 26, described the 53-year-old Tesla and SpaceX mogul as 'funny' and 'down to Earth' — but claimed that he wanted to keep their baby a secret for everyone's safety. The South African Tesla founder had five children with his first wife, Justine Wilson — twins Vivian and Griffin and triplets Kai, Saxon and Damian. The son Nevada died from sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) at just 10 weeks old in 2002. Advertisement Pop star Grimes and Musk share three children, including toddler X, who has been seen with his father around the White House, girl Exa Dark Siderael and boy Techno Mechanicus. Musk and Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis also share twins, Strider and Azure, daughter Arcadia and son Seldon Lycurgus. St. Clair asked to keep her son's name a secret, but revealed he is happy and healthy.

South Park tells ICE to "eatabagofdicks" after parody becomes a recruitment tool
Well, it didn't take long for the federal government to prove South Park's relevancy. Earlier today, ICE entered the chat and posted a screenshot on X from the show's upcoming parody of the agency, pointing to its recruitment site in the caption. South Park's X account re-X'd the X (We used to be a proper country where websites had normal names like 'Twitter') and added, 'Wait, so we ARE relevant? #eatabagofdicks.' South Park ICE X post This is all in response to South Park's season premiere two weeks ago, when the White House avoided scrutiny over President Trump's ties to Jeffrey Epstein by engaging in the time-honored tradition of complaining about South Park online. After the premiere made headlines, particularly the ending, which featured many jokes about the size of Trump's penis, the Trump administration released a statement on the episode: 'This show hasn't' been relevant for over 20 years and is hanging on by a thread with uninspired ideas in a desperate attempt for attention.' Though South Park's billionaire owners and the leader of the free world have entered the shitposting stage of their feud, that wasn't even the strangest thing the Trump administration did today. President Trump took questions from reporters whilst wandering around the White House roof. Later, he announced that he'd like to jail 14-year-olds in Washington, D.C. because a teen attacked a DOGE official—probably because DOGE is on track to kill 14 million people. It's another day in Trump's America, where there's ample parking day or night, and neighbors spouting, 'Sydney Sweeney, a registered Republican, has the HOTTEST ad out there.' More from A.V.

Former DOGE adviser Katie Miller launches new podcast aimed at busy moms
Katie Miller, the wife of White House deputy chief of staff for policy Stephen Miller, and formerly an adviser to Elon Musk's DOGE, announced on Thursday that she was launching a new podcast called "The Katie Miller Podcast." Miller wrote in her announcement on X that there wasn't a podcast for women like herself. "Because for years, I've seen that there isn't a place for conservative women to gather online. There isn't a place for a mom like me, mom of three young kids, four, three, and almost two, and a wife, and trying to do a career, eat healthy, work out," she said in the video. "I wanted to create that space." Miller said she hoped to have conversations with people across the political spectrum. "I wanted to create that space where we have real honest conversations with people across the political spectrum and across the world to get lifestyle information, news, laugh with our friends, gossip about what's going on in the world from our perspective, from that of a mom with three kids who's trying to make every day be the best we can, from bedtime to bath time to breakfast in the morning to getting out the door for work and everything in between," she said. Miller previously worked for former Vice President Mike Pence and most recently worked as an adviser and spokesperson for DOGE. Miller left the Trump administration alongside Musk to work in the private sector, Axios reported. "I hope Elon is a listener to the podcast and I hope to have him as a guest one day," she told Axios. Miller's first guests on the podcast include Vice President JD Vance, boxing legend Mike Tyson and ex-ESPN host Sage Steele, she told Axios. The former DOGE adviser also told Axios that her husband was "incredibly supportive" of her new venture. The show will release new episodes on Mondays. "We're going to do this once a week on Mondays to talk about lifestyle, what's going on, real honest conversations, none of the bulls---. With people from across the spectrum, whether that be politicians, business leaders, celebrities, musicians, artists, scientists, you name it, we're going to have it," she said in her video announcement. "Because this is life about women for women with men, too, talking about what matters to women. And that isn't just what everyone considers a woman's issue. Because what's a woman's issue? I have yet to find out," she added.
