Where can I find DNS denylists for Musk, Trump-owned businesses?

I'm big into blocking hostnames via DNS (specifically with Blocky). I'm having trouble finding Musk and Trump denylists specifically so thought I'd ask the community.

Make a list and claim it’s 100% complete. I bet people come with all the receipts to prove you wrong. Then use all that info to build a (probably) fairly complete list lol
- Ah yes, Crenshaw’s Law in action
  
  You mean Godwin's Law. I think Crenshaw's Law is the one about Nazis.
  Edit: aaaand someone didn't get the joke.
- That’s actually a very good point. Thanks!
- Well here is my 100% complete list:
  
  Yup, looks good to me
Also add Peter Thiel owned businesses ;)
- About that.... Palantir was founded by Peter Thiel, and they are working hard to be the primary software vendor for the government. So you may not be able to avoid Thiel owned business 😭.
I tried researching this and wasn't able to find an exact match for your question.
However I can say blocking hate websites and fake news websites helps stop Trump because it's part of his pillars of support for power.
I think the best one I found so far is this which seems well maintained and current: https://github.com/sefinek/Sefinek-Blocklist-Collection it has a hate category and a fake news category.
Then you can supplement the lists and block the main Trump and Musk websites by searching for Donald Trump for Trump's websites and block the SpaceX, Twitter, Tesla, Neuralink and Boring Company websites.
The first one I found when searching for this was this blocklist which targets hate websites, propaganda websites and "alt-tech" websites (meaning things like far-right social media) but it's a little old. It seems they used some kind of automated method to find subdomain names. I don't know where they would have got this:

0.0.0.0 5iisjztgyz.this_is_research.next_query.is_from_us.if_problem.please_see.http.researchscan.cs.berkeley.edu.stormfront.org 0.0.0.0 5x0eggbvlm.this_is_research.next_query.is_from_us.if_problem.please_see.http.researchscan.cs.berkeley.edu.stormfront.org 0.0.0.0 6hwzzfs2iy.this_is_research.next_query.is_from_us.if_problem.please_see.http.researchscan.cs.berkeley.edu.stormfront.org
To be fair the domain name is a hate website, it's just the subdomain part is of course useless here.
I haven't closely reviewed the domain names on these lists but a quick glance of these lists makes me think it's overall pretty accurate. If you encounter a website you cannot visit you can always unblock it and create an issue on Github.
- I’d seen the former but not the latter. Despite it being slightly outdated it does have a good amount of valid domains.
  
  I just found another one that might be interesting. This one seems somewhat actively maintained with the last commit two months ago:
