She's disgusting.

Pretty much sums up last night. What we are living through is NOT normal. Kudos to @repstansbury.bsky.social

Musk is double-minded and unstable in all his ways. He cannot be trusted to tell the truth.

Do it.

Sigh.

It took seeing adult bullies to understand that my childhood bullies didn’t even really want to hurt me, they just wanted to feel powerful and how I felt about it wasn’t even in the equation. I can’t imagine someone not outgrowing that, but apparently it happens quite a lot!

I can't think of a faster way to undermine the country than simultaneously firing government workers, cutting scientific research, rolling back protections on public health & environment, & cutting essential services. It's like the US was defeated in war and is being occupied by a hostile enemy.

I would die on the spot of shame if I were this spineless.

Pope Francis, who’s currently in the hospital in critical condition, shared a prewritten statement for a mass service today. He called out Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, saying it is “a painful and shameful occasion for the whole of humanity.” Nailed it.

If Russia ceases combat operations, the war is over. If Ukraine ceases combat operations, Ukraine is over

Yosemite National Park workers hang distress flag to protest Trump and Musk coming for their jobs.

This is North Korea level crap. It’s embarrassing.

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"

You never imagine the descent into despotism being quite this embarrassing, you know? You expect liberal democracy to fall to a Palpatine, not Biff Tannen.

"They're putting persecuted Christian refugees in camps in the jungle" sounds like something Glenn Beck would accuse the Obama administration of doing and yet now it's a pillar of the Republican agenda.

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

More of that free speech absolutism for which he is so renowned.

"I am the law." Hitler, 1942 "There is no law but the law of the people & the people are me." Gaddafi, 1975 "We have a constitution, but we must address the problems of the country first. The law is always behind when it comes to national survival." Bashar Al-Assad, 2011 Trump, 2025:

Yeah....no

“We must especially beware of that small group of selfish men who would clip the wings of the American eagle in order to feather their own nests.” -FDR, 1941
